In order to study on the fracture behavior and the fracture thoughness of combined structure, the specimens, structural steel (SM28C) and 6:4 brass are annealed for ductility and investigated for the befavior of fracture and the absorbed energy at the variation of the impact velocity. The results obtained by this study are as follows: (1)The maximum load increases with the impact velocity, but in the condition of constant impact velocity it decreases as the ductility increases. (2)The absorbed energy increases with the impact velocity, but in the condition of constant impact velocity it is constant as the ductility increases. (3)In the case of the combined structure of peralite and ferrite, the microcracks initiates and propagates mainly in the ferrite structure intergranular in accompany with the slip, and the slip concentration phenomena occur in the boundary of pearlite structure However, in case of the combined structure of .alpha. and ..betha. phase, the microcracks initiates and propagares mainly in the .alpha. phase intergranularly, and slip concentration phenomena not ocur in the boundary of .betha. phase.
