    AnnotationThe micromechanism of cleavage fracture in hypoeutectoid pearlitic R7T steel, commonly used for producing railway wheels, was investigated. Standard Charpy V-notch specimens were used in order to analyse the fracture at quasistatic and impact loading. Finite element 3D calculations were performed and the elastic-plastic behaviour of notched bars up to the fracture was simulated. Fractographic analysis was carried out in order to investigate the origin of cleavage initiation and its distance from the notch root. Independence of cleavage fracture stress on temperature evidenced the micromechanism of cleavage fracture to be microcrack propagation-controlled. For the investigated blunt-notched bend bars, an active volume exists ahead of the notch root in which pearlite colony-associated initiation is located. The cleavage fracture is thus governed by sites lying in the active volume predetermined by critical values of stress, strain and triaxiality.
