Repetitive nano-impact tests as a new tool to measure fracture toughness in brittle materials

Along this work, the feasibility of using repetitive-impact tests with a cube-corner tip and low loads for obtaining quantitative fracture toughness values will be shown. It will be displayed that the impacts are able to produce a cracking similar to the pattern developed for the classical fracture...
