Fracture toughness measurement in fused quartz using triangular chevron-notched micro-cantilevers
Abstract We extend to flat surfaces the fracture toughness method presented in Acta Materialia vol. 86 (2015) p. 385 and measure in this manner the fracture toughness of fused quartz. Tests give 0.67±0.01MPam1/2, which agrees with earlier...
