murtumakykyä
Murtumakyky, often translated as fracture toughness, is a property of a material that describes its resistance to fracture when a crack is present. It quantifies the ability of a material to withstand the propagation of a crack. A material with high fracture toughness can tolerate larger flaws or cracks before catastrophic failure occurs compared to a material with low fracture toughness.
This property is crucial in engineering design, particularly for components subjected to stress concentrations or where
Factors influencing fracture toughness include the material's composition, microstructure, processing history, temperature, and the presence of
