term "crack growth resistance" is used instead. This term is used to emphasize the material behavior over a change in crack length. The R-curve linear...

toughness vs crack length is called the resistance (R)-curve. ASTM E561 outlines a procedure for determining toughness vs crack growth curves in materials...
