Griffith (1920s) proposed that very small, MICROSCOPIC cracks weaken brittle materials This is why the theoretical Tensile strength of a brittle elastic solid (~E/10) is not achieved  Griffith proposed that all brittle materials contain a POPULATION of small cracks and flaws that have a VARIETY of sizes, shapes, and orientations  Fracture occurs when the THEORETICAL cohesive strength of the material is exceeded at the TIP of one of these flaws This was shown with glass, where very fine and super- strong WHISKERS were shown to have strengths CLOSE to the THEORETICAL However, larger samples very quickly form surface flaws, and the strength drops!
