High-Energy Fracture of the Fabella
Fractures of the fabella are rare, with only nine cases reported in the literature. However, they can cause severe posterolateral knee pain. Other complications include osteoarthritis and, very rarely, peroneal nerve compression. All the prior cases have been transverse fractures.

Experimental fracture resistance study for cracked bovine femur bone samples
Crack growth and brittle fracture is one of the major failure modes in bone materials and therefore understanding the fracture behavior and affecting parameters on the crack growth resistance of bone is necessary for biomechanics researchers.

A Direct Tensile Strength Testing Method for Concrete from Existing Structures
Tensile strength is a crucial property for the function, safety and durability of all concrete structures. The general procedure to assess the tensile properties of concrete from existing structures is to perform indirect tests and predict the tensile ...

Parametric Investigation on the Effectiveness of FRM-Retrofitting in Masonry Buttressed Arches
Buttressed arches represent some of the most vulnerable elements in historical masonry buildings under seismic actions. Given their structural, architectural and often artistic importance, it is paramount to investigate effective retrofitting measures ...

The Fracture Energy of Earthquakes [PDF]
Summary The arrest of a semi-infinite longitudinal shear crack is caused by either (1) the finiteness of available strain energy, or (2) an increase in fracture energy along the trajectory of the running crack. In the former case the following relationship may be used to evaluate the fracture energy: yo = RAa2/2ptn where yo is the fracture energy per ...

Ubiquitiformal fracture energy
The ubiquitiformal fracture energy is proposed in the paper and its explicit expression is obtained. Moreover, the numerical results for concrete are found to be in good agreement with those for the critical strain energy release rate. The discrepancy between the numerical results of the traditional fracture energy and the critical strain energy ...
