Fracture: Macroscopic Aspects
Goofy Duck Analog for Modes of Crack Loading
“Goofy duck” analog for three modes of crack loading. (a) Crack/beak closed. (b) Opening mode. (c) Sliding mode.
(d) Tearing mode. (Courtesy of M. H. Meyers.)
Theoretical Tensile Strength
Theoretical Cleavage Strength
Stress Concentration
“Lines of force” in a bar with a side notch. The direction and density of the lines indicate the direction
and magnitude of stress in the bar under a uniform stress σ away from the notch. There is a concentration
of the lines of force at the tip of the notch.
Inglis: Stress Concentration
Stress Concentration due to a Circular Hole
(a) Stress distribution in a large plate
containing a circular hole.
(b) Stress concentration factor Kt as a
function of the radius of a circular hole
in a large plate in tension.
Stress Concentration due to an Elliptical Hole
Stress concentration at an elliptical hole for a = 3b.
Griffith Criterion of Crack Propagation
Crack in Thin and Thick Plates
Crack in (a) thin (t1) and (b) thick (t2) plates. Note the plane-stress state in (a) and
the plane-strain state in (b).

Plane Stress and Plane Strain
Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics
Inherent material resistance to crack growth, KR and its relationship to the
applied stress σ and crack size a.
Three Modes of Fracture
The three modes of fracture. (a) Mode I: opening mode. (b) Mode II: sliding
mode. (c) Mode III: tearing mode.

Typical Values of Weibull Modulus
Weibull Plots for Steel and Two Alumina samples
Weibull plots for a steel, a conventional
alumina, and a controlled-particle-size (CPS)
alumina. Note that the slope (Weibull modulus
m)→∞ for steel. For CPS alumina, m is double
that of conventional alumina. (After E. J.
