Abstract: A new model of multi-range fractals is proposed to explain the experimental results observed on the fractal dimensions of the fracture surfaces in materials.The relationship of multi-range fractals with multi-scaling fractals has been also discussed.

Key words: fractals, multi-range fractals, multi-scaling fractals, toughness
