摘要: This paper presents an experimental work aimed at assessing the correlation between fracture toughness (K IC ) and roughness for a series of Westerly granite specimens thermally treated up to 850°C. Mode I as function thermal treatment is determined using Cracked Chevron Notched Brazilian Disc specimens. The degree resultant surfaces analyzed with aid high accuracy, precision stereo-topometric measurement system. Roughness values display negative temperature. Fracture decreases increasing temperature due gradual opening grain-grain boundaries in response stresses. fractures preferentially follow these weakened boundaries, which addition expansion individual grains, result rougher failure profiles At low temperature, distinct anisotropy was observed all higher value perpendicular direction propagation. However, temperatures resulted homogenization directions. These results confirm important link among petrofabric analysis, toughness, treatment.
