Deformation and Fracture of Silica Glass Fiber Under Sharp Wedge-Indentation

Fiber or fiber tapers are the material of choice when studying the mechanical properties and intrinsic load-response of glasses at highest sample quality and experimental repeatability. However, surface curvature strongly complicates meaningful analysis using local (sharp) contact probes. Wedge-inde...
