Crack tip fields in rubber‐toughened polymers [PDF]

open access: yesPAMM, 2011
AbstractNumerical simulations of the formation and the characteristic shape of plastic zones at crack tips in rubber‐toughened polymers are performed in order to get a better understanding of the underlying micromechanisms. Complementing previous work, the present study focuses on the contribution of distributed crazing.

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Influence of structural defects on the beneficial effect of autofrettage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A comprehensive numerical study has been carried out to investigate and to explore the impact of the presence of part through surface cracks of various size and orientation in a thick welded ferritic steel cylindrical vessel, on the beneficial effect of ...

Solid‐State Diffusion and Intermetallic Phase Formation in Roll‐Bonded Mg–Zn Composites With Kirigami‐Patterned Inlay

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mg–Zn composites with a thickness of 0.21 mm were fabricated using roll bonding of a kirigami‐patterned Mg alloy inlay within a Zn matrix. Thermal activation following this process led to the formation of tailored intermetallic structures, which provided the composite with enhanced flexural strength.

Evaluation of Fracture Parameters for Cracks in Coupled Thermoelasticity for Functionally Graded Materials

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering, 2015
The finite element method (FEM) is developed for coupled thermoelastic crack problems if material properties are continuously varying. The weak form is utilized to derive the FEM equations. In conventional fracture theories the state of stress and strain

Dynamic Crack Tip Equation of Motion: High-speed Oscillatory Instability

open access: yes, 2009
A dynamic crack tip equation of motion is proposed based on the autonomy of the near-tip nonlinear zone of scale $\ell_{nl}$, symmetry principles, causality and scaling arguments.

Considerations in selecting laboratory scale test specimens for evaluation of fracture toughness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The assessment of defects in large steel structures requires a trustworthy evaluation of the material’s toughness. This toughness is not only a material property but is also influenced by the loading conditions and geometry; the so-called constraint. The

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Refined estimatation of the mode II crack tip stress field at plane stress conditions for a steady state creep linear-fractional law

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2008
The approximate solution of the mode II crack problem in a linear-fractional law of creeping material under plane stress conditions is demonstrated. The stress field in the vicinity of the mode II crack tip is obtained.
