Prediction and Experimental Validation of the Influence of T‐Stress on I–II Mixed‐Mode Fracture in Rock

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Traditional fracture criteria only consider the singular terms in the Williams expansion and neglect higher‐order term coefficients, resulting in significant discrepancies between predicted and measured values. To advance the understanding of rock fracture mechanisms, this study introduces a generalized maximum tangential stress (GMTS) criterion by ...

Influence of Notch Geometry and Temperature on the Mechanical Properties of Al‐Mg Alloy Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 11, Page 4769-4783, November 2025.
ABSTRACT At the near‐threshold regime, small irregularities on the surface can interact with the microstructure and affect the nucleation and propagation of cracks. Molecular dynamics is an effective methodology to investigate the damage evolution at this scale, and three types of defects, namely, triangular, rectangular, and crack, are examined.

Low-cycle Fatigue and Fracture Behaviour of 9%Ni Steel Flux Cored Arc Welding joint at Cryogenic Temperature [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
In the present work, low-cycle fatigue (LCF) test and crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) test were performed for 9% Ni steel flux cored arc welding (FCAW) joint at room temperature (296 K) and cryogenic temperature (80 K).

A Structural Integrity Perspective for the Assessment of Ageing in Composite Solid Propellants

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 152-158, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Composite solid propellants (CSPs) are critical materials in the defence and aerospace industries, known for their complex mechanical behaviour and susceptibility to ageing. This study explores the application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to discriminate the ageing degradation of CSPs based on structural integrity parameters.

An Experimental Study of Fracture Parameters of Concrete Produced With Basalt Aggregate by Peak‐Load Method

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Limestone or river aggregates have been traditionally used as aggregates in ready‐mixed concrete from the past to the present. The depletion of these natural aggregates used in ready‐mixed concrete has led the concrete industry to investigate aggregate resources and search for alternative aggregates.

RESPONSE AND DAMAGE EVOLUTION OF SINGLE EDGE NOTCHED TIMBER BEAMS UNDER THREE-POINT BENDING

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2020
Two groups of small-size single edge notched beams (SENB) made of European spruce (Picea abies) were tested in three-point bending (3PB) until failure under displacement control.

Determination of dynamic fracture toughness using a new experimental technique

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
In other studies dynamic fracture toughness has been measured using Charpy impact and modified Hopkinson Bar techniques. In this paper results will be shown for the measurement of fracture toughness using a new test geometry.

On comparison of fracture energy measured for six hot mix asphalt composite mixtures using force–load line displacement and force–crack mouth opening displacement curves at intermediate temperatures and different loading rates

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 47, Issue 10, Page 3858-3873, October 2024.
Abstract There are two methods for determining the fracture energy (Gf) of hot mix asphalt (HMA) composites at intermediate temperatures: (i) load–crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD) and (ii) load–load line displacement (LLD) curves. The effects of these two methods on the Gf values of different HMA mixtures are investigated at different loading ...
