A theoretical model of crack blunting has been developed by considering the interactions between dislocations and grain boundaries in nanocrystalline materials. Dislocations emitted from cracks are stopped at or/and penetrated through grain boundaries, which depends on the total force acting on the dislocations as well as the energy barrier of the grain boundaries. The energy barrier for dislocation...
