Probabilistic Prediction of Strength and Fracture Toughness Scatters for Ceramics Using Normal Distribution

Tensile strength ft and fracture toughness KIC of ceramic are not deterministic properties or fixed values, but fluctuate within certain ranges. A nonlinear elastic fracture mechanics model was developed in this study and combined with the common normal distribution to predict ceramic’s ft...
