Dislocation activity, stable crack motion, and the warm-prestressing effect in magnesium oxide
Four-point bend tests were performed on precracked single-crystal MgO specimens at different temperatures and strain rates. A large amount of stable crack growth before fracture occurred; etching revealed dislocations in the crack advance region. We believe that dislocation sources near the crack ti...
