Novel test system and test procedure for fatigue crack growth testing with cracked round bar (CRB) specimens

Polymer Testing, 2019
Abstract A novel test system for fatigue crack growth (FCG) testing with cracked round bar (CRB) specimens was developed and implemented, utilizing a commercially available linear-torsion electro-dynamic test machine, several specifically designed test fixtures and devices, and a unique test and data reduction procedure. The test arrangement includes

Architectured lightweight steel composite: evaluation of the effect of geometrical parameters and annealing treatments on deformation behavior

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2021
Architectured lightweight steel composites were designed and fabricated through the cold roll bonding (CRB) of stacked steel-aluminum sheet layers. The effects of geometrical parameters including thickness ratio (TR) and the number of constituent layers ...

Cyclic crack growth tests with CRB specimens for the evaluation of the long-term performance of PE pipe grades

Polymer Testing, 2007
It is well known that resistance against slow crack growth is important for the lifetime of pressurized polyethylene (PE) pipes. Thus, several methods have been proposed in recent years to evaluate the long-term performance of PE using fracture mechanics.

Medication cost-reducing behaviors in older adults with atrial fibrillation: The SAGE-AF study

, 2022
Background: As patient prices for many medications have risen steeply in the United States, patients may engage in cost-reducing behaviors (CRBs) such as asking for generic medications or purchasing medication from the Internet.

Removal of boron from wastewater of geothermal power plant by selective ion-exchange resins. I. Batch sorption-elution studies

, 1999
Boron removal was studied using N-glucamine-type resins Diaion CRB 02 and Purolite S 108. The resin Diaion CRB 02 exhibited a higher sorption capacity for boron removal from 0.01 M H3BO3 solution than did Purolite S 108.
