Fracture toughness determination of fused silica by cube corner indentation cracking and pillar splitting

In this paper the applicability of the pillar splitting technique for fracture toughness determination on anomalous behaving bulk fused silica glass is explored. The results are compared to conventional cube corner indentation cracking analyzed using the Lawn, Evans and Marshall model (JACerS, 63 (1...
