25 Mar 2009: 10. of the three-point bend test, including span S , height H and crack depth ratio a B. ... This conclu-sion is inconsistent with the definition of fracture toughness – a material property independent of test geometry.

10 Aug 2009: a metal film and its micro-structure, especially when the beam-bending test is used. ... The high resistivity is obtained from microfabricated test struc-tures with a thickness of 0.4–0.7 m.

27 Jul 2009: In this test, a metallic foil of thickness in the range 10–150 lm is bent over a circular cylindrical bar whosediameter sets the value of applied curvature. ... The bending test is a complementary test method to the wire torsion test of [10].

27 Jul 2009: Geometry C (Fig. 2(c)): an unpassivated ferroelectric island withelastic electrode layers, on a Si substrate; this geometry istypical of a laboratory test structure. ... This ge-ometry represents an idealised laboratory test structure withelectrode

7 Feb 2009: In contrast, no size. effects were observed in the tension tests.

8 Aug 2009: Hence, it would collapse by local buckling in an unnotched strength test, but it would fail by the attainment of the tensile strength of the cell wall material in a fracture ... toughness test.

27 Jul 2009: 1. This. s a common test geometry and is representative of practical ap-lications.

10 Jul 2009: This is analogous to the case of a conventional,rigid-plastic solid where the Cauchy stress is not defined within a rigid region, and cannot be used in order to test

20 Jun 2009: 3 for the unnotchedcompressive strength. For any given material the local failure mechanism in a compressive fracture toughness test can bedifferent from that in an unnotched compressive strength test.
