Abstract

Subscritical crack growth of sintered silicon nitride was analyzed in terms of the R‐curve. Provided that the stress intensity at the crack tip governs the subcritical crack‐growth velocity, the KI–V relationship of sintered silicon nitride exhibiting a rising R‐curve is shown to shift to the high‐KI region as the crack advances.
