(2) where is the gamma function. Although Equation 1 has shown wide applicability in the field of materials science, the above form is valid only for the case of specimens with constant size. However, recent work on ceramic fibres has indicated the radius to vary continuously along the fibre length [2–4]. For this type of situation, the strength distribution function is complex and little research has been conducted into the resulting failure statistics [3] although it has been suggested that the “effective” values of σ0 and m may be greatly influenced [5]. The present work is concerned with the derivation of mean strength for brittle fibers with varying radii and its applicability to simulated populations of brittle fibers. Although the following discussion relates directly to brittle fibers, the theory may be easily adapted to any brittle material whose dimensions vary by a known amount.
