Original abstract

The model of reinforcing mechanism, which improves the fracture toughness of brittle matrix composites reinforced by ductile particles, is analyzed. The particles form a bridging zone and, thus, constrain the crack opening. The fracture criteria are analyzed for several combinations of micro-mechanical parameters of a composite system and the resistance curves are presented.
