An Analysis of Mode III Doubly Periodic Crack-Tip Field of Orthotropic Composite Materials
The mechanical behavior near the doubly periodic crack tips for orthotropic composite materials plate subjected to antiplane shear loading is studied. This is done by complex function theory and conformal mapping of the Jacobi elliptic function with the ...

Crack Spacing in Reinforced Concrete: Approximate Solution [PDF]
In a companion paper by Bazant and Oh, a simplified theory for predicting the spacing of cracks in a parallel crack system in reinforced concrete was presented. In this paper a different approximate analysis yields about the same result. For this purpose, a solution based on the formulas for the stress caused by a concentrated force in a halfspace is ...

Annular cracks in thin films of nanoparticle suspensions drying on a fiber
We report an experimental study of the crack pattern formed during the drying of a colloidal suspension. A horizontal fiber, which provides a one dimensional, boundary-free substrate, is coated by a film of micronic thickness.
