For a specimen of a steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 80 MPavm, fracture results at a stress of 510 MPa when the maximum (or critical)internal crack length is 6 mm. For the same alloy, will fracture occur at a stress level of 380 MPa when the maximum internal crack is 9.0 mm? Why or whynot?Select the most appropriate answer based on your calculation.Select one:a. Not enough informationb. It will fractureC. It will not fracture

2. Casson model was discussed in class in the context of blood rheology. This phenomenological model is often used to describe the shear stress vs. shear rate relationship in colloidal suspensions where particle aggregation might cause the measured viscosity to increase at low shear rates. In an experiment, data for the shear stress rand the applied shear rate S were fitted to the Casson model written below (in a slightly different form compared to that given in the lecture notes): √t=√₁+√as. (1) The best least square fit parameters to the experimental data were found to be 40 mPa for the yield stress and 2.5 mPas for the parameter a, which is referred to as the plastic viscosity. a. Using Eq. (1), derive an expression for the fluid viscosity u as a function of S. b. Plot the viscosity of the fluid as a function of S for 0.1s¹
