Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources, 2023 Correlations between material parameters are useful because they provide a first estimation of unknown parameters. Here, the correlation between the tensile strength and the mode I fracture toughness of rocks is studied.

Theory of critical distances: A discussion on concepts and applications
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 2021 Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) collects several methods adopted in failure prediction of components provided with stress concentration features. The idea of evaluating stress effect in a zone rather than in a single point was proposed decades ago but, only thanks to relatively recent works, TCD concepts showed to be a successful extension of ...

Inverse Ising inference, hyperuniformity and absorbing states in the Manna model [PDF]
, 2018 Using inverse Ising inference we show that the absorbing states of the one-dimensional Manna model can be described by an equilibrium model with an emergent interaction displaying short-ranged repulsion and long-ranged attraction. As the model approaches

Estimation of fretting fatigue life using a multiaxial stress-based critical distance methodology [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2015 This work presents a methodology for life estimation of mechanical couplings subjected to fretting fatigue. In this approach, a stress-based multiaxial fatigue parameter is evaluated at a critical distance below the contact surface.

Applications of the theory of critical distances in failure analysis [PDF]
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2011 Abstract The Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) is the name which I use to describe a group of methods employed for the prediction of failure in cases where stress concentrations are present and where the failure mode involves cracking, such as fatigue and brittle fracture. Some of these methods are more than 50 years old, some very recent.

The fractal structure of the universe : a new field theory approach [PDF]
, 1998 While the universe becomes more and more homogeneous at large scales, statistical analysis of galaxy catalogs have revealed a fractal structure at small-scales (\lambda < 100 h^{-1} Mpc), with a fractal dimension D=1.5-2 (Sylos Labini et al 1996).

The Theory of Critical Distances applied to multiscale toughening mechanisms [PDF]
Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2019 Abstract The Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) is an approach used for predicting the effect of cracks and notches on fracture and fatigue behaviour. In recent years it has been successfully applied to a wide range of problems across all classes of materials.

Quantum corrections in 4d N = 1 infinite distance limits and the weak gravity conjecture
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We study quantum corrections in four-dimensional theories with N = 1 supersymmetry in the context of Quantum Gravity Conjectures. According to the Emergent String Conjecture, infinite distance limits in quantum gravity either lead to decompactification ...

Static assessment of brittle/ductile notched materials: an engineering approach based on the Theory of Critical Distances [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2014 Engineering components often contain notches, keyways or other stress concentration features. These features raise the stress state in the vicinity of their apex which can lead to unexpected failure of the component.
