2D analysis of rifts in ice shelves

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Two-dimensional (2D) views dominate the application of linear elastic fracture mechanics to problems in ice-shelf rift propagation, yet from the perspective of fracture mechanics, processes at the rift front are inherently three-dimensional (3D).

Additive Manufacturing of Continuous Fibre Reinforced Composites: Process, Characterisation, Modelling, and Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing provides precise control over the placement of continuous fibres within polymer matrices, enabling customised mechanical performance in composite components. This article explores processing strategies, mechanical testing, and modelling approaches for additive manufactured continuous fibre‐reinforced composites.

Intertemporal Substitution and Labour Supply of Bosnian SME’s

open access: yesAmfiteatru Economic, 2016
Our paper aims at testing the intertemporal substitution hypothesis (ISH) for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The hypothesis predicts a positive relationship between the hours worked and the transitory changes in wages.

Econometric Issues in Estimating User Cost Elasticity [PDF]

open access: yes
The user cost elasticity is a parameter of considerable importance in economics, with implications for the effects of budget deficits, tax-based savings incentives, monetary policy, corporate taxes, and tariffs and quotas on capital goods.

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Elastic Knots

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2007
We study the mechanical response of elastic rods bent into open knots, focusing on the case of trefoil and cinquefoil topologies. The limit of a weak applied tensile force is studied both analytically and experimentally: the Kirchhoff equations with self-contact are solved by means of matched asymptotic expansions; predictions on both the geometrical ...

Constitutive model of shape memory alloy under the effect of martensite plasticity for finite-element applications

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
This study is focused on the superelastic Ni-based shape memory alloy (SMA) for finite-element applications. SMA has presented excellent characterisations in biomedical application, mechanical application, aerospace application, seismic prevention ...

Calculating the scale elasticity in DEA models. [PDF]

open access: yes
In economics scale properties of a production function is charcterised by the value of the scale elasticity. In the field of efficiency studies this is also a valid approach for the frontier production function. It has no good meaning to talk about scale

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.
