Effects of microstructure on desiccation cracking of a compacted soil

, 2020
Desiccation cracking has a significant influence on the hydro-mechanical behaviour of soils. Most previous studies focus on the desiccation cracking of slurry soil samples, whereas little attention has been paid to compacted soils.

Experimental investigation of progressive cracking processes in granite under uniaxial loading using digital imaging and AE techniques

Journal of Structural Geology, 2019
For a full understanding of the cracking processes in granite, uniaxial compression tests are conducted on prismatic specimens with pre-existing flaws, and digital imaging and AE techniques are applied to monitor real-time rupture behaviors.

Cracking elements method for dynamic brittle fracture

Theoretical and applied fracture mechanics (Print), 2019
The cracking elements (CE) method is a recently presented self-propagating strong discontinuity embedded approach with the statically optimal symmetric (SDA-SOS) formulation for simulating the fracture of quasi-brittle materials.

Crack-crack and crack-pore interactions in stressed granite

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1979
Abstract Scanning electron microscope observations of stress-induced crack growth, causing crack-crack and crack-pore interactions within individual grains of Barre granite, show that photoelastic models of cracks are essentially correct and applicable to rock.

Hydrogen induced cracking of pipeline and pressure vessel steels: A review

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2018
Pipelines and pressure vessels made of carbon and low alloy steels have suffered from Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) in wet hydrogen sulfide environment in the oil & gas industry. Hydrogen which is produced at cathode due to corrosion reaction, diffuses
