Electrostatically Reinforced Double Network Granular Hydrogels. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Electrostatically reinforced double network granular hydrogels (DNGHs) with cartilage‐like fracture energy are introduced. An empirical model predicts the composition‐dependent fracture energy based on dissipation zone size, contact area, and inter‐particle adhesion energy. Thanks to their granular structure and the inter‐particle attraction, the DNGHs

Strain Field Around Individual Dislocations Controls Failure. [PDF]
Small MethodsBy conducting in situ transmission electron microscopy strain mapping during a nanoscale fracture experiment, the dislocation processes taking place at the crack tip in the rather brittle metal chromium is detailed. Moreover, for the first time, the local stress fields of the dislocations shielding the crack is directly measured. Abstract Understanding

Elastic-plastic defect interaction in (a)symmetrical double edge notched tension specimens [PDF]
, 2017 Interaction of defects tends to intensify their crack driving force response compared to the situation where these defects act independently. The interaction between multiple defects is addressed in engineering critical assessment standards like BS7910 ...

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 46, Issue 11, Page 4103-4118, November 2023., 2023 Abstract The current work investigates the relationship between the crack growth rate (CGR) and the cyclic crack‐tip opening displacement (ΔCTOD) of microstructurally small fatigue cracks by using high‐resolution digital image correlation (DIC). Load‐controlled fatigue tests were conducted on small‐scale specimens of 18%Cr body‐centered cubic ferritic ...

Fatigue fracture surface analysis in C45 steel specimens using X-Ray fractography [PDF]
, 1991 X-Ray fractography is a useful technique to analyse the mechanisms operating in fracture and involves an examination of the fracture surface. In the present investigation, this technique has been employed to study the fatigue fracture behaviour of a ...

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 46, Issue 10, Page 3912-3926, October 2023., 2023 Abstract The effects of mechanical and microstructural anisotropy on short fatigue crack initiation and propagation behaviors of a directionally solidified superalloy have been studied. An unusual result was found where the fatigue lives of specimens with grains longitudinally aligned along the loading direction fail at lower lifetimes than specimens ...

Using 3D Digital Image Correlation (3D-DIC) to measure CTOD in a semi-elliptical surface crack [PDF]
, 2018 The subsurface nature of Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD) makes its direct measurement very difficult, if not impossible. During fracture toughness testing, CTOD is commonly calculated by applying a plastic hinge model using externally applied clip ...

Measurement and prediction of CTOD in austenitic stainless steel [PDF]
, 2016 Variation of Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD) test values can have a significant effect on the Engineering Critical Assessment of a structure. This paper examines the development of CTOD with increasing load in an austenitic stainless steel.

The post-yield fracture of a ductile polymer film: Notch quality, essential work of fracture, crack tip opening displacement, and J-integral [PDF]
, 2017 Double edge notched tension (DENT) specimens of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film were tested in an universal testing machine, measuring the displacements and the ligament lengths with a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

Effect of the morphology of the martensite-austenite phase on fracture of the weld heat affected zone in vanadium and niobium microalloyed steels [PDF]
, 2010 In multipass welding, the intercritically reheated coarse grained heat affected zone demonstrates the worst toughness in welded joint, since it contains a high-carbon martensite with some retained austenite, known as M-A phase, which is brittle and ...
