Abstract

The goal of this paper is to analyze analytical and numerically, from several perspectives, the modulus of rupture (MOR) for brittle materials, studying the bending test of three points which is normally used in laboratory to calculate it. In particular, we will give four different approaches to the MOR: through the classical theory of beams; by means of the one- and three-dimensional numerical simulations; and by using an improved expression to the MOR obtained through its asymptotic analysis. Finally, we will present these methodologies for cylindrical and rectangular beams made of porcelain. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
