TL;DR: In this paper, a concept of combined micro and macro fracture mechanics is proposed for low-stress brittle fracture of steels, which combines both stress concentrators as cracks or notches and as dislocations.
Abstract: Real materials inevitably contain both stress concentrators as cracks or notches and as dislocations, that is, both macroscopic and microscopic one. From this viewpoint, a concept of combined micro and macro fracture mechanics is proposed for low-stress brittle fracture of steels.

TL;DR: In this paper, the fracture mechanics stress intensity, K, measured for the cleavage strength of carbon steel by Professor Yokobori and colleagues, at Tohoku University and elsewhere, is shown to follow a Hall-Petch dependence on average grain diameter, l, in accordance with the model-based relationship K = c's 1 2 [σ 0 +kl −1 2 ] for which c' is a numerical factor, 5 is the effective length of the local plastic zone associated with unstable crack growth, σ 0 is a friction stress for appropriate dislocation movement within the poly

TL;DR: Based on the fractal distribution of cracks and on the theory of the weakest link, a general statistical formula of rock strength under a complex stress state has been developed in this article, of which the influence of orientation distribution and irregularity of crack growth has been taken into account.

TL;DR: In this article, the energy unstable and critical local stress requirements for low-stress brittle fracture of notched specimens were derived based on the combined micro-and macro fracture mechanics, that is, the two requisites necessary for the crack propagation.
