- Abstract
- Analysis of self-similarity of a rupture surface requires sampling This implies precautions which, if neglected, can lead to false conclusions concerning the fractal character of the analyzed object. The fractographic procedure derived from the Minkowski-Bouligand method reveals self-similarity on more than two decades of observation scales of all the rupture profiles analyzed. The fractal hypothesis is adequate. The fractal dimension D(f) is a fractographic indicator which reveals the effect of the microstructure on the rupture mechanism. The mechanical conditions under which the crack progresses influence the D(f). The question of the relation between D(f) and tenacity is raised again.
