Crack Tip Relaxation Governs Onset of Fracture Instability

open access: yes, 2006
A dynamic crack will travel in a straight path up to a material-dependent critical speed beyond which its path becomes erratic. Predicting this critical speed and discovering the origin of this instability are two outstanding problems in fracture ...

Elevated temperature crack growth [PDF]

open access: yes
The purpose of this program was to extend the work performed in the base program (CR 182247) into the regime of time-dependent crack growth under isothermal and thermal mechanical fatigue (TMF) loading, where creep deformation also influences the crack ...

Innovating Aircraft Repair Processes: The Role of Digitalization in Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This research explores how digitalization—by storing detailed non‐destructive testing data in structured DICONDE databases and creating a standard data model of the component—innovates aviation maintenance and repair processes. Coupled with a developed state‐based simulation model, it enables data‐driven, sustainable repair strategies that reduce waste,

Tearing of free-standing graphene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We examine the fracture mechanics of tearing graphene. We present a molecular dynamics simulation of the propagation of cracks in clamped, free-standing graphene as a function of the out-of-plane force.

Is It Possible to Determine the Whole Crack Path at Once?

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings
A brief review of crack path calculation methods using integral principles of mechanics is presented. In twodimensional setting, a crack is considered as a geodesic line on the surface of a body with a metric that depends on the initial stress state. The

An Inkjet‐Printed Platinum‐Based Temperature Sensing Element on Polyimide Substrates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An inkjet‐printed, meander‐structured, nanoparticle platinum‐based resistive temperature sensors on polyimide substrates are demonstrated as proof‐of‐concept. Optimized sintering at 250°C enables stable conductive structures. The Pt100‐ and Pt1000‐type sensors exhibit linear resistance–temperature characteristics with stable TCR in the 20°C–80°C range,

Boundary selectivity of crack paths in corrosion fatigue of stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stress corrosion and corrosion fatigue cracks are frequently very branched and there have been extensive attempts to define the characteristics of crack-stopping features. EBSD has been used to examine the full length (~8mm) of a corrosion fatigue crack

The influence of toughening-particles in CFRPs on low velocity impact damage resistance performance

open access: yes, 2014
The role of particle-toughening for increasing impact damage resistance in carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites was investigated. Five carbon fibre reinforced systems consisting of four particle-toughened matrices and one system containing ...

Crack deflection by design – Utilizing the material inhomogeneity effect on miniaturized additively manufactured structures

open access: yesMaterials & Design
A natural crack exhibits a surrounding stress field, which may overlap considerably with a stress field caused by any material inhomogeneity, influencing the crack driving force and extension direction.
