Changes in fracture toughness in a pearlitic steel due to SPD. In the shear orientation (black dots) fracture toughness progressively decreases with increasing alignment of the lamellar structure due to SPD. In the crack-divider orientation with local crack branching and delamination (open triangles) the fracture toughness remains high.
