Numerical study on the mechanism of shear performance degradation of thawing glacial debris

open access: yesMeitan xuebao
The sensitivity of the ice-water transition in glacial debris to temperature rise has become a significant concern. In recent years, there has been an increase in reports of ice avalanches caused by the thawing of glacial debris, which can be attributed ...

Direct Shear Test for Coarse Granular Soil [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Civil Engineering, 2019
A large direct shear apparatus was used to test coarse granular soil. In shear tests with a small shear box, deformation in shear band is homogeneous and stress–dilatancy relationships at pre-peak and post-peak phases of shearing are similar. However, in tests with a large shear box, the pre-peak and post-peak stress–dilatancy relationships are ...

Influence of Temperature on Scratch and Wear Properties of Technical Thermoplastics: Implications for Material Selection

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The share of technical thermoplastics is expected to grow further in the e‐mobility segment. In this study, a detailed temperature‐based tribological characterization of technical thermoplastics is performed. The tribological properties are discussed in terms of the dynamic mechanical properties of polymers at different ambient temperatures. A proof of

Strain absorption optimization of reinforcement on geosynthetic reinforced slope: experimental and FEM modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The interaction between shear plane and Geosynthetic reinforcement in reinforced slope were carried out by using direct shear test apparatus. The reinforced soil specimens were installed through the large shear box in five different systems including 0,

Tribology of ZrC Coatings and Spherical Tips Acquired with Extraordinarily Stiff, Metal Atomic Force Microscopy Probes

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this research, ZrC coatings are evaluated against various counterprobes at the microscale using novel super‐stiff atomic force microscopy cantilevers. The chemical composition of the coating is shown to be an important factor influencing coating hardness and Young's modulus, while surface roughness, counterprobe hardness, and surface energy are the ...

From Nature to Engineering: Mortar Volume and Interfacial Mechanics in Bioinspired Ceramics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural armors like nacre, this study explores how varying the volume fraction of the soft mortar layer impacts the interfacial strength and toughness of bioinspired ceramics. Experimental and computational analysis reveals that higher mortar volumes increase energy dissipation but reduce interfacial stiffness, offering insights for ...
