an increase in a brittle material's resistance to crack growth as the crack extends, due to shielding mechanisms such as bridging in the crack wake.

In ceramics, R-curve behavior refers to an increase in a brittle material's resistance to crack growth as the crack extends, due to shielding mechanisms such as bridging in the crack wake. This meaning comes from Mai (1986) in Annual Review of Materials Science.[1]
