Abstract
A coupled stress intensity probabilistic treatment of toughening by crack deflection around spherical second phase particles is presented. Both the tilting of the crack around particles and The twisting of the crack front between particles have been evaluated. Important features of the analysis include particle volume fraction effects on the toughening increment, and the absence of a particle size effect.
