Fracture Marks Associated with Transition-Region Behavior of Slow Cracks in Glass

Abstract
Techniques of fractography employed in a study of slow-crack behavior in edge-cracked glass sheets have led to the discovery of previously unreported fracture marks. The physical appearance of these marks and the mechanism of their formation is postulated to be a result of mixed stress-corrosion dependent/stress-corrosion independent effects in the transition region of slow-crack propagation in glass.
