Review of time-dependent fracture model of concrete
The integrity of concrete structures under strong earthquakes and the stability of concrete structures with cracks are concerns of national security strategies.These two issues are closely related to the time-dependent fracture behavior of concrete.The ...

Mechanisms of femoral fracture [PDF]
Abstract Mechanisms of femoral fracture of the condyles and shaft were experimentally investigated through controlled knee impact of denuded femurs in six human cadavers. High-speed movies recorded knee joint compression, femoral displacements and deformation, and fracture initiation.

The fatigue life of an externally cracked modern tank gun barrel is controlled by the prevailing combined stress intensity factor (SIF) KIN, which consists of two components:KIP-the SIF caused by internal pressure; KIA-the positive SIF due to the tensile

Modeling the process of equilibrium crack growth in a composite specimen from the standpoints of the postcritical deformation mechanics [PDF]
Ensuring the strength and safety of structures requires studying the issues of crack initiation and equilibrium growth. An analogy between the approaches of phenomenological fracture mechanics, which is based on the complete deformation diagrams usage ...

Energy-Efficient Fracturing Based on Stress-Coupled Perforation [PDF]
Hydraulic fracturing is one of the key technologies for reservoir stimulation in low-permeability/unconventional oil and gas fields. In response to the high energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions caused by extreme flow-limiting perforation in hydraulic fracturing, stress-coupled perforation technology has been proposed to promote low-energy ...

Despite recent experimental and clinical progress in the treatment of tibial and fibular fractures, in clinical practice rates of delayed bone healing and non-union remain high.

Investigations into the opening of fractures during hydraulic testing using a hybrid-dimensional flow formulation [PDF]
We applied a hybrid-dimensional flow model to pressure transients recorded during pumping experiments conducted at the Reiche Zeche underground research laboratory to study the normal opening behavior of fractures due to fluid injection. Two distinct types of pressure responses to flow-rate steps were identified and numerically modelled using a radial ...

Viscoplastic constitutive models for zero-thickness interface elements, formulation and applications [PDF]
An energy-based work-softening visco-plastic model for zero-thickness interface elements has been developed as an extension of an existing elastic-perfectly-viscoplastic formulation.
