The Effects of Pressure on Fracture of a Rubbery Particulate Composite

Abstract

There is a need for studying the effects of pressure on fractures. Recommendations for future work: examination of short crack fracture phenomena (why do short cracks behave differently?) Surface crack growth analysis: find a way to measure crack depth and width in pressurized environment. Links between microstructure and pressure effect (establish a connection between pressure effect and microstructural phenomena such as void nucleation, growth, and coalescence).
