A Critical Evaluation of Indentation Techniques for Measuring Fracture Toughness: I, Direct Crack Measurements
TL;DR: In this paper, the application of indentation techniques to the evaluation of fracture toughness is examined critically, in two parts: the first part is focused on an approach which involves direct measurement of Vickers-produced radial cracks as a function of the indentation load.

A simple method for studying slow crack growth.
D. P. Williams,A. G. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a simple method for studying slow crack growth is described, which entails measurements of load relaxation at constant displacement using a double torsion specimen, and it is demonstrated that the data generated using this technique are in excellent agreement with data obtained using the more complex conventional techniques, for a range of materials - steel, titanium, glass, aluminum oxide, PMMA.

Electron microscopy of microcracking about indentations in aluminium oxide and silicon carbide
Bernard J. Hockey,Brian R. Lawn +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the nature of microcracking about small-scale indentations in two highly brittle solids, sapphire and carborundum, and found that cleavage steps comprise the main source of obstruction to lattice restoration across the interfaces.
Quasi-Static Solid Particle Damage in Brittle Materials.
TL;DR: In this article, a three part study of indentation fracture in the plastic contact regime is presented, where the first part summarizes the observations of fracture and develops a fracture classification scheme, the second part discusses the implications of the fracture characterization for fracture toughness determinations, and abrasive wear and low velocity erosion prediction.
