Prosthesis with surface specification B60: Weibull distribution of crack lengths. Modal value π = 120 μm (crack with maximum propability P). Median value of crack length δ = 163 μm (P = 63%; from Fig. 6). Note that the values given in Tab. 3 for B60 are slightly different (170 μm and 133 μm for Median and Modal value, respectively) since those values represent the arithmetic means of characteristic values determined for all prosthesis of this type.
