Characterisation of crack tip fields under non-uniform fatigue loading [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2013 The paper analyses previously reported work, which uses digital image correlation to measure fatigue crack closure. As well as determining crack opening loads, the information on crack shape may be used to estimate the stress intensity factor, as well ...

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2015 Abstract Mechanical properties of NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) were obtained using uniaxial tensile testing and dog-bone specimens. Critical crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) was measured at room temperature on compact tension (CT) specimens using experimental methods of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM).

High magnification crack-tip field characterisation under biaxial conditions [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2013 This work presents a novel methodology for characterising fatigue cracks under biaxial conditions. The methodology uses high magnification Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique for measuring displacement and strain crack-tip fields. By applying micro-

A Continuum Theory of Crack Shielding in Ceramics [PDF]
, 1987 A phenomenological constitutive model is proposed which aims at describing the overall effect of microfracture in ceramics. Based on this model, the asymptotic stress, strain, and displacement fields at the tip of a stationary macroscopic crack are ...

The ab-initio aided strain gradient elasticity theory: a new concept for fracture nanomechanics
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2019 When the width of cracked nanocomponents made of brittle or quasi-brittle materials is less than approximately , the size of the - dominance zone becomes smaller than and comparable to the fracture process zone ( ).

The 1/r singularity in weakly nonlinear fracture mechanics
, 2009 Material failure by crack propagation essentially involves a concentration of large displacement-gradients near a crack's tip, even at scales where no irreversible deformation and energy dissipation occurs. This physical situation provides the motivation
