A thin plate of a ceramic material with E = 225 GPa is loaded in tension, developing a stress of 450 MPa. Is the specimen likely to fail if the most severe flaw present is an internal crack oriented perpendicular to the load axis that has a total length 0.25 mm and a crack tip radius of curvature equal to 1 μm?
Which of the following statements regarding brittle failure and crack propagation is CORRECT?
Elastic energy is consumed when a crack propagates, due to unloading of a volume of material.
Energy is released when the surface area of a material increases, as a result of crack propagation.
O The stress at the tip of a crack is less than the nominal stress (force over the cross-sectional area of the
component) because the stress flows around the defect.
O The fracture toughness of a material is its resistance to an increase in the radius of curvature of a crack.
O A material will fail in brittle fashion when the stress intensity at the crack tip is greater than the fracture
toughness of the material.
A ceramic part is used under a complete reverse cyclic stress with a stress amplitude (S) of 250 MPa. The yield strength and fracture toughness of materials is 550 MPa and 12.5 MPa*sqrt(m), respectively. Y is 1.4. What is the critical surface crack length?
