Topology‐Enriched Toughness Enhancement in Quasi‐Periodic Metastructures Featuring Tailorable Strong‐Weak Network

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 40, 17 July 2026.
A quasi‐periodic Dart‐Kite (QDK) metastructure with a golden‐ratio‐constrained strong–weak bond network simultaneously enhances strength, toughness, and damage tolerance. Its distributed topology enables predictable, tailorable crack paths for precise fracture control and stable mechanics, demonstrating a high‐performance, controllable architecture ...

AUTO-SHAPE ANALYSIS OF IMAGE TEXTURES IN FRACTOGRAPHY

open access: yesImage Analysis and Stereology, 2011
The aim of this study is to estimate the velocity of fatigue crack growth (crack growth rate - CGR) from the texture in SEM images of crack surfaces. A simple and quick method is based on fitting training images as a linear combination of several small ...

Strength–Ductility Balance in Additively Manufactured Laminated Fe‐Cr‐Ni/Fe‐Cr‐Ni‐Cu Alloy Heterostructures

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Fe‐Cr‐Ni‐Cu alloy has been extensively utilized over the past few decades due to its low cost yet high strength. Nevertheless, the poor ductility of this alloy limits its real application in industrial fields. In this study, a soft Fe‐Cr‐Ni alloy was combined with a Fe‐Cr‐Ni‐Cu alloy by laser‐directed energy deposition (LDED) to fabricate the ...
