  Solution
5.11 (a) All are related except sample size.
Fracture mechanics is the field of mechanics concerned with the study of the propagation of cracks in materials.
5.12 (a) Refractory metals: Niobium and Molybdenum, Tantalum, Tungsten, and Rhenium
5.13 (b) rest other will increase fatigue life.
(b) the option is just opposite to shot peening. Short peening creates compressive stress on the surface.
5.14 (a)
The KIC tests used to determine the fracture toughness of metallic materials.
