Essais basés sur la mécanique de la rupture. (...) Le critère couramment utilisé est le facteur critique d'intensité des contraintes, défini comme suit : les contraintes élastiques autour de l'extrémité d'une fissure peuvent être représentés par un paramètre K appelé "facteur d'intensité des contraintes, qui dépend de la géométrie de la pièce, de la taille et de la géométrie du défaut, ainsi que de la distribution des tensions. (...) La rupture se produit pour une valeur critique de K; appelée Kic, [valeur qui] caractérise quantitativement la résistance du matériau à la propagation brutale d'une fissure (...) 2, record 1, French, - facteur%20critique%20d%27intensit%C3%A9%20de%20contrainte
