Threshold intensity factors as lower boundaries for crack propagation in ceramics
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Slow crack growth can be described in a v (crack velocity) versus K<sub>I </sub>(stress intensity factor) diagram. Slow crack growth in ceramics is attributed to corrosion assisted stress at the crack tip or at any pre-ex...
