Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A new composite material is tested and shows a K_IC of 2.5 MPa√m. Discuss how this value may affect its applications in high-stress environments.

💡 Hint: Consider how K_IC relates to stresses encountered in different engineering environments.

Challenge 2 Hard

Investigate the impact of temperature on the K_IC of metals. Why might a material behave differently at elevated temperatures?

💡 Hint: Think about how heat generally affects material properties.
