A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Development of a stop criterion for load tests based on the critical shear displacement theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The capacity of existing bridges is an important aspect regarding the safety of the traveling public. Proof load testing can be a useful option to evaluate if an existing bridge satisfies the requirements from the code.

A micromechanics based constitutive model for fibre reinforced cementitious composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A new constitutive model for fibre reinforced cementitious composites based on micromechanical solutions is proposed. The model employs a two-phase composite based on the Eshelby matrix-inclusion solution and the Mori-Tanaka homogenization scheme and ...

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Development of an improved toughness hyperpure silica reflective heat shield [PDF]

open access: yes
High purity three dimensionally woven silica-silica materials were evaluated for use as a tough reflective heat shield for planetary entry probes. A special weave design was selected to minimize light piping effects through the heat shield thickness ...

EBSD Study of Creep‐Induced Lattice Misorientation in MgO‐Particle‐Reinforced Austenitic Steel Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Creep experiments at 900°C on coarse‐grained steel‐ceramic composites containing recycled magnesia reveal that higher ceramic volume fractions significantly enhance the creep resistance. Detailed EBSD investigations identify subgrain formation in the steel matrix as the dominant deformation mechanism.

Analysis of Stress Relaxation in Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2015
The cracks in concrete pavements are formed at early-age as consequence of internal stresses in the concrete. Therefore, the stress relaxation has an essential influence on the cracking process. To model this process allows to identify, for instance, the
