Simulation of Near-Tip Crack Behaviour and Its Correlation to Fatigue Crack Growth with a Modified Strip-Yield Model [PDF]
A modified strip-yield model has been developed to simulate the plasticity-induced crack closure under the constant amplitude (CA) and a single overload loading conditions.

The 1/r singularity in weakly nonlinear fracture mechanics
Material failure by crack propagation essentially involves a concentration of large displacement-gradients near a crack's tip, even at scales where no irreversible deformation and energy dissipation occurs. This physical situation provides the motivation

Slip‐resistant connections subjected to freeze‐thaw cycles
Abstract There are many examples of steel structures subjected to severe environmental conditions with bolted connections directly exposed to climatic agents such as steel bridges, mining transfer towers, wind towers etc. In this experimental research, non‐slip joints with M16 and M20 bolts have been studied. The specimens were subjected to fourteen 12

The Breakdown of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics near the Tip of a Rapid Crack
We present high resolution measurements of the displacement and strain fields near the tip of a dynamic (Mode I) crack. The experiments are performed on polyacrylamide gels, brittle elastomers whose fracture dynamics mirror those of typical brittle ...

Computing the stress intensity factor range for fatigue crack growth testing at 20 kHz
A comparative study on the computation of the SIF at 20 kHz load frequency. Results from different simulation procedures are presented and discussed. Abstract Inertia and damping influence the values of the stress intensity factors (SIFs) at high‐frequency loading and they must be included in computations.

Experimental and numerical analysis of deformation patterns in notched heterogeneous welds [PDF]
Standardized weld flaw assessment techniques assume the weld region to be homogeneous which is a strong idealisation of reality. Characterising the effects of heterogeneous properties of welds through the analysis of deformation patterns and slip lines ...
