Fracture Statistics for Inorganically-Bound Core Materials

In this article, we study the fracture characteristics of inorganically-bound foundry cores. It will be shown that the fracture stress of inorganic cores follows Weibull’s strength distribution function for brittle materials. Using three-point and four-point-bending experiments, the volume...
