Fracture toughness of rough and frictional cracks emanating from a re-entrant corner

In mixed-mode conditions, the competing contribution of the different stress intensity factors predicts fracture initiation load as well as crack propagation direction. Commonly, mixed-mode fracture resistance is based on the assumption of smooth and frictionless cracks. However, the effect of fric...
