The Open-Fracture Patient Evaluation Nationwide (OPEN) study: the management of open fracture care in the UK.

open access: yes, 2022
AIMS: The Open-Fracture Patient Evaluation Nationwide (OPEN) study was performed to provide clarity in open fracture management previously skewed by small, specialist centre studies and large, unfocused registry investigations.

3D‐Printed Titanium Gyroid Scaffold Structure Integrated With Tough Hybrid Materials for Cartilage Replacement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a potential device design for joint cartilage replacement. Silica‐polytetrahydrofuran (SiO2‐PolyTHF) hybrids with customizable mechanical properties were developed to mimic the characteristics of a natural meniscus. These were synthesized through a two‐pot sol–gel hybrid process.

Complex Fracture Networks Prohibit Safe Fracturing Fluid Recovery

open access: yesEngineering Reports
The recovery of fracturing fluid (HF), necessary for subsurface energy production and carbon storage, is generally low, raising concerns about HF fate in the subsurface and its potential to contaminate water aquifers. This study examines the migration of

Multiscale modelling of materials chemomechanics : brittle fracture of oxides and semiconductors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fracture is one of the most challenging ‘multi-scale’ problems to model: since crack propagation is driven by the concentration of a long-range stress field at an atomically sharp crack tip, an accurate description of the chemical processes occurring in ...

Mitigating Creep Anisotropy and Enhancing Performance in Additively Manufactured Ni‐Based Superalloys: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing introduces pronounced microstructural and crystallographic anisotropy in Ni‐based superalloys, resulting in orientation‐dependent creep deformation and damage. This review identifies the key microstructural origins of creep anisotropy, examines their influence on dominant deformation mechanisms, and highlights processing ...

Stimulation Behavior of Fracture Networks in the Second Hydrate Trial Production Area of China Considering the Presence of Multiple Layers

open access: yesEnergies
The fracture network’s stimulation of China’s second hydrate trial production area was investigated. First, the stimulation potential of the fracture network and the influence of well arrangement on hydrate development were explored. Second, the fracture

Existence of solutions to a regularized model of dynamic fracture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Existence and convergence results are proved for a regularized model of dynamic brittle fracture based on the Ambrosio–Tortorelli approximation. We show that the sequence of solutions to the time-discrete elastodynamics, proposed by Bourdin, Larsen ...

Electrodeposition in Structural Lattices of Variable Architectures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Electrodeposition enables geometry‐sensitive, autonomous void filling while simultaneously tuning chemical and mechanical properties. The development of approaches that can autonomously fill and heal material voids and yield composites with tailorable properties is increasingly relevant in engineering.

A Novel Connectivity Metric of Identified Multi‐Cluster Fracture Networks in Permeable Formations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Complex natural fracture networks typically consist of multiple clusters, whose connectivity is rarely quantified. Therefore, for each identified fracture network, we propose a connectivity metric that accounts for individual fracture clusters and their ...

Numerical simulation of wave propagation in 2-D fractured media : scattering attenuation at different stages of the growth of a fracture population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, we systematically examine the multiple scattering process of seismic waves at consecutive stages of the evolution of 2-D fracture population. Synthetic seismograms are computed using the pseudo-spectral method for elastic wave propagation,
