“…Fairhurst [7] indicated that failure may occur away from the centre of the disc for small angles of loading contact area with materials of low compression-tension ratios. Hiramatsu et al [8] speculated about the possibility of failure starting by shear fracture in the region of high compressive stress near the edges. The extension fracture is then postulated to form when wedges are forced into the disc.…”

The influence of an interface on the initiation and propagation of fractures was investigated using the Brazilian tensile test (diametral compression of a disc

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
