Non steady-state intersonic cracks in elastomer membranes under large static strain [PDF]
Dynamic crack propagation in elastomer membranes is investigated; the focus is laid on cracks reaching the speed of shear waves in the material. The specific experimental setup developed to measure crack speed is presented in details.

To explore the influence of path deflection on crack propagation, a path planning algorithm is presented to calculate the crack growth length. The fatigue crack growth life of metal matrix composites (MMCs) is estimated based on an improved Paris formula.

Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Near the Cavity in a Poroelastic Media
In this paper, we investigate the problem of the propagation of hydraulic fractures in a poroelastic medium that has a circular cavity. The research was conducted using the extended finite element method (XFEM) implemented in the ABAQUS software package.

Influence of corrosion and creep on intergranular fatigue crack path in 2XXX aluminium alloys [PDF]
In this paper, two examples of the influence of time-dependent processes on crack path in two 2XXX aluminium alloys are presented. The first example is concerned with corrosion–fatigue crack growth resistance of a 2024 T351 alloy cracked in the S–L ...

Influence of grain structure and slip planarity on fatigue crack growth in low alloying artificially aged 2xxx aluminium alloys [PDF]
The fatigue crack growth behaviour under constant amplitude loading of three low alloying artificially aged 2xxx aluminium alloys with distinct microstructures is analysed. Fatigue crack growth tests show a correlation between fatigue performance and the

A numerical study of crack shielding and deflection under extensive plasticity [PDF]
Experimentally observed crack deflection events in multi-layered material systems, occurring even under pure mode-I loading, are here simulated and explained through elasto-plastic finite element modelling.

Effects of graphite nodules on crack growth behaviour of austempered ductile iron [PDF]
Austempered ductile iron (ADI) is a candidate material for camshafts, where however, the early stages of fatigue damage are of major concern during service.

Evaluation of the intrinsic crack growth rates of weld joints [PDF]
A method is presented for evaluating weld intrinsic fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) by excluding the influence of residual stresses. The method is potentially useful for predicting crack growth lives of structural components using measured FCGR data ...
