Reivew of fracture toughness testing and standardization
Mon, 2012-10-01 13:44 - xkuizhu
Recently, a comprehensive review paper on fracture toughness testing and ASTM standardization was published by Dr. Zhu and Prof. Joyce in the journal of Engineering Fracture Mechanics:
XK Zhu and JA Joyce, "Review of fracture toughness (G, K, J, CTOD, CTOA) testing and standardization," Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 85, 2012: 1-46.
Welcome your comments and suggestions.

Pretty good reviews on
Pretty good reviews on fracture toughness testing on standard specimens, e.g. SENB, CT, etc.
It is also suggested to take a look at Xiankui's paper on the constraint correction for J-R and CTOD-R curves.
"Application of Constraint Corrected J-R Curves to Fracture Analysis of Pipelines", Paper no. PVP2005-71202 pp. 111-121 http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/PVP2005-71202
Many thanks for your nice
Many thanks for your nice comments and recommendation, Enyang! Fracture toughness is a key parameter of fracture mechanics method, and its accurate measurement is critical to apply fracture mechanics to engineering desgin and structural integrity analysis. Hope more young scientists/researchers join in the community of fracture toughness testing and evaluation. You have done a good job on J-R curve testing for X80 steel in the IPC 2012 paper.
Thanks. Very good reference
Thanks. Very good reference for my fracture mechanics teaching
Nice comments from China
Very glad to see your nice words and to know my paper is helpful to your teaching, Professor Guo from Shanghai University.
