| Abstract |
| Generalised relations between the strength distribution function and
derivatives of the fracture probability have been obtained for cylindrical
specimens tested in 3-point bending. The derived relations
have been used to evaluate the probability of failure during dynamic
loading using a fracture mechanics approach. The theoretical and
experimental results indicate that subcritical flaw growth during
loading causes the strength degradation and the failure probabilities
in impact test can be used to determine safe working stress for
the application of glass as a structural component. |
