Depths of cracks produced by abrasion of brittle materials
A simple analysis, based on indentation fracture mechanics, has been used to study the likely maximum depths of cracks normal to the surface in a ceramic material subjected to abrasion by hard particles. The analysis shows that the cracks are likely to be of depths comparable to, and in most cases s...
