On the use of the theory of critical distances with mesh control for fretting fatigue lifetime assessment [PDF]
Tribology International, 2020 This work analyses the viability of the theory of critical distances (TCD) using mesh control for fretting fatigue lifetime assessment. More than seven hundred sets of simulations were performed by taking seventy different experimental tests reported previously in the literature.

A new proposal of effective stress and critical distance for fatigue at notches
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2014 The Theory of Critical Distance (TCD) and its associated methods have proved useful for predicting fatigue and fracture failure under stress gradients. This work reports the first analytical deduction of the effective stress and its critical distance in ...

Contextualism in Normative Political Theory and the Problem of Critical Distance [PDF]
Ethical Theory and Moral Practice, 2019 Political theory is contextualist when factual claims about context are part of the justification of normative political judgments. There are different kinds of contextualism depending on whether context is relevant for the formulation and justification of political principles (methodological contextualism), whether principles themselves are ...

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.

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.

At the end of the world: Local Dynamical Cobordism
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 The Cobordism Conjecture states that any Quantum Gravity configuration admits, at topological level, a boundary ending spacetime. We study the dynamical realization of cobordism, as spacetime dependent solutions of Einstein gravity coupled to scalars ...

Critical theory and dystopia Critical theory and contemporary society./ Patricia McManus.
, 2022 Bringing the resources of critical theory to bear on the genre of dystopian fiction, this volume demonstrates both the continuing potential of Theodor Adorno's work on literature, and the meaning of dystopia when considered in the light of Adorno's ...
