Studies into the Failure Prediction of Brittle Materials [PDF]
This thesis is divided into six chapters. The first chapter provides a brief introduction concerning the behaviour of brittle materials. It also contains the justification for the undertaking of the study as well as a brief description of the method ...

PM versus IM Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-3Cr Alloy in Mechanical Properties and Fracture Behaviour [PDF]
The comparisons of mechanical properties and fracture behaviour between as-consolidated PM Ti-5553 alloy and as-cast IM Ti-5553 alloy were investigated through tensile, fracture toughness and impact toughness tests in this research.

An adaptive finite element approximation of a variational model of brittle fracture [PDF]
The energy of the Francfort–Marigo model of brittle fracture can be approximated, in the sense of Gamma-convergence, by the Ambrosio–Tortorelli functional.

Strong embedded discontinuities for simulating fracture in quasi-brittle materials [PDF]
In this paper embedded strong discontinuities are used to model discrete cracking in materials like concrete. In the approach followed a discontinuous displacement field is considered and the deformation is localized at a surface of zero width.
