A novel technique was recently introduced in our laboratories for the measurement of the compressive strength of single fibres, based on a modified configuration of the single fibre composite fragmentation test. In particular, the effect of the length of the embedded fibre on its compressive strength was assessed for the first time, based on Weibull statistics considerations. Moreover, during the sample manufacturing stage, a fibre can break in compression due to induced cooling stresses, rather than mechanical stresses, which can be determined from the fragmentation phenomenon. In this note, improved analyses of such compressive fragmentation effects are presented and discussed.
