Abstract

The challenge of how to adequately characterize the toughness behavior of ductile cast iron (DCI) materials had been solved through the development and application of fracture mechanics concepts. Outstanding examples are found in the design and safety assessment procedures of sophisticated DCI components for wind turbines or transport and storage casks for radioactive materials. An essential requirement for these procedures is to have adequate fracture mechanics toughness data available.
