“…Shibanuma et al recently proposed a prediction model of cleavage fracture toughness of ferrite-cementite steels, 22,23) based on the microscopic fracture initiation process. 3,[24][25][26] As a result of application of the model to the fracture toughness test of the steels having various size of microstructures, the prediction results showed good accuracy with the actual experimental ones.…”
