I took a break from social media because it was too overwhelming during our university's Covid shutdown, and I returned to...a succinct thread on a common point of confusion for students in fracture mechanics nomenclature ❤️
People do not consistently name these two quantities: A. Toughness (J/m2), Gc, measured using a sample with a precut crack. B. Work of fracture (J/m3), Wc, measured using a sample with no precut crack. They have different units. Be careful how each paper names them.

Attention everyone: super important notice of award. See you on the ice when it’s 10 F outside in Ithaca but a balmy 30 in the enclosed rink 🏒🥅
Big news! The City has just won an award from the state of $523,000 to enclose the Cass Park Rink. This will help us provide skating and hockey recreation options for young people year round.

Attendees were so excited about ORS #mskbiology2019 that none of us took the $2400 💰offer to give up our 🛩 seats to Sun Valley. Major props to the dedicated grad students on our flight repping @Mizzou @ProfGingerFerg lab 🤜🤛, let’s visit their posters!
