Interpreting experimental fracture toughness results of quasi-brittle natural materials through multi-parameter approaches
Natural stones like marbles are often employed as façade panels to externally cover buildings. These natural materials tend to exhibit a quasi-brittle nonlinear fracture behaviour which, conversely to concrete counterpart, has much less been studied in the literature. In the present paper, an expe...
