Abstract The present study aims to characterize the cracking behaviour of high-density poly-ethylene (HDPE) pipe elbow. Experimental studies were performed to determine the mechanical behaviour of HDPE and study the anisotropy of the material. Tension tests were performed on compact tension (CT) specimens to identify the toughness value, expressed by

The effect of hydrogen on the fracture toughness of friction‐stir welded API 5L X70 pipeline steels
Abstract The hydrogen embrittlement (HE) leads to severe steel degradation of mechanical properties. The hydrogen atoms diffuse into the steel and get positioned into reversible and irreversible trap sites. The pipe to transport oil and gas needs to be welded to construct long‐distance pipeline projects; thus, friction‐stir welding (FSW) has proven an ...

The post-yield fracture of a ductile polymer film: Notch quality, essential work of fracture, crack tip opening displacement, and J-integral [PDF]
Double edge notched tension (DENT) specimens of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film were tested in an universal testing machine, measuring the displacements and the ligament lengths with a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

Fatigue crack growth in notched specimens: a numerical analysis
Fatigue crack growth (FCG) is linked to irreversible and non-linear processes happening at the crack tip, which explains different problems observed in the use of da/dN-?K curves. The replacement of ?K by non-linear crack tip parameters, namely the crack

Fatigue fracture surface analysis in C45 steel specimens using X-Ray fractography [PDF]
X-Ray fractography is a useful technique to analyse the mechanisms operating in fracture and involves an examination of the fracture surface. In the present investigation, this technique has been employed to study the fatigue fracture behaviour of a ...

Elastic-plastic defect interaction in (a)symmetrical double edge notched tension specimens [PDF]
Interaction of defects tends to intensify their crack driving force response compared to the situation where these defects act independently. The interaction between multiple defects is addressed in engineering critical assessment standards like BS7910 ...
