Fractures in Brief: Olecranon Fractures [PDF]
Olecranon fractures are relatively common injuries, accounting for approximately 10% of upper extremity fractures in adults [26]. These fractures may result from a direct blow to the proximal ulna, or indirectly, via the forceful contraction of the triceps against resistance (typically, during a fall onto an outstretched hand).

Hangman’s fracture vs hanged-man’s fracture vs hangee’s fracture [PDF]
not necessarily a male. The conventional name of “hangman’s fracture”, therefore, should be “hanged-person’s fracture”. Accordingly, we suggest that a more suitable terminology for the so-called “hangman’s fracture” may be the “hangee’s fracture”.

Oxidation tests using coupon specimens of alloy 625 and alloy 617, and four-point bending tests for a duration of 100 hrs were carried out in supercritical water (SCW) environment at a pressure of 24 MPa and in superheated steam (SHS) environments at 750°

Fracture through cavitation in a metallic glass [PDF]
The fracture surfaces of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass exhibit exotic multi-affine isotropic scaling properties. The study of the mismatch between the two facing fracture surfaces as a function of their distance shows that fracture occurs mostly through

Analysis of the Bauschinger Effect in Cold Drawn Pearlitic Steels
Prestressing steel wires usually undergo cyclic loading in service. Therefore, it is of interest to analyse certain features of their mechanical behaviour under this type of loading, such as the Bauschinger effect (BE) or the hardening rule, that fit the

Downscaling of fracture energy during brittle creep experiments [PDF]
We present mode 1 brittle creep fracture experiments along fracture surfaces that contain strength heterogeneities. Our observations provide a link between smooth macroscopic time-dependent failure and intermittent microscopic stress-dependent processes.

Mechanical and thermal expansion properties of aligned carbon nanotube reinforced epoxy composites
Aligned MWCNT/epoxy composites made with the three types of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with different thermal annealing temperature have been prepared, and the tensile tests and thermal expansion tests of the composites in the MWCNT ...
