Fracture toughness testing of brittle materials using semi-circular bend (SCB) specimen

Fracture toughness testing of brittle materials using semi-circular bend (SCB) specimen

The semi-circular bend (SCB) specimen was suggested in 1984 for testing mode I fracture toughness of rock and other geo or brittle materials. Since then SCB has been used worldwide, extended and improved for many other applications by various researchers. Formulations for mode I and mixed mode fract...
