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 ...

Fracture toughness and crack-resistance curve behavior in metallic glass-matrix composites [PDF]
Nonlinear-elastic fracture mechanics methods are used to assess the fracture toughness of bulk metallic glass (BMG) composites; results are compared with similar measurements for other monolithic and composite BMG alloys.

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.

Size Effect in Fracture: Roughening of Crack Surfaces and Asymptotic Analysis
Recently the scaling laws describing the roughness development of fracture surfaces was proposed to be related to the macroscopic elastic energy released during crack propagation [Mor00].

The Archimedes’ Constant, π Seen by Mechanical Engineers
Probabilistic engineering mechanics is used to relate the value of π with one of the main parameters in fracture mechanics. It proposes an engineering method to obtain the value of it from engineering data without involving any geometrical ...

Modified Fracture Mechanics Approach for Hydraulic Fracturing Stress Measurements
Hydraulic fracturing (HF) test has been widely used to determine in situ stress. The use of a conventional continuum method for this purpose has raised considerable controversies concerning field tests, particularly in the determination of the maximum ...
