Development and geometry of isotropic and directional shrinkage crack patterns

open access: yes, 1999
We have studied shrinkage crack patterns which form when a thin layer of an alumina/water slurry dries. Both isotropic and directional drying were studied.

Influence of Sheet Extensibility on Tearing Strength [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
This paper investigates the possibility that there is a relationship between the tearing properties and elongation properties of a sheet of paper. A lack of specific information in the literature and the advent of the in-plane tear method contributed to ...

Imprinting the memory into paste and its visualization as crack patterns in drying process

open access: yes, 2005
In the drying process of paste, we can imprint into the paste the order how it should be broken in the future. That is, if we vibrate the paste before it is dried, it remembers the direction of the initial external vibration, and the morphology of ...
