The critical values of a or et of a refractory material greatly increase when the limiting deformation is respectively greater than orless than 1 9 10 -4.The critical temperature difference of appearance of cracks in refractories for which a is greater or less than the critical value is effectively increased by increasing the e or reducing the a of the material, respectively.If the strength of a refractory is greater or less than the critical value, its resistance to crack propagation is conveniently increased by reducing the ~ or the et of the material, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
