Linear elastic fracture mechanics predicts the propagation distance of frictional slip [PDF]
When a frictional interface is subject to a localized shear load, it is often (experimentally) observed that local slip events initiate at the stress concentration and propagate over parts of the interface by arresting naturally before reaching the edge.

Numerical investigation on Stress Intensity Factor and J Integral in Friction Stir Welded Joint through XFEM method [PDF]
In fracture mechanics (domain of cracked environments), it is concerned to forecast the behavior of the structures until their ruin. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a new process for solid-state joining, it can weld high strength aluminum alloys from the ...

Forward and inverse problems in the mechanics of soft filaments [PDF]
Soft slender structures are ubiquitous in natural and artificial systems, in active and passive settings and across scales, from polymers and flagella, to snakes and space tethers. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of a simple and practical numerical

Influence of Rotations on the Critical State of Soil Mechanics [PDF]
The ability of grains to rotate can play a crucial role on the collective behavior of granular media. It has been observed in computer simulations that imposing a torque at the contacts modifies the force chains, making support chains less important.

Stochastic Properties of Static Friction [PDF]
The onset of frictional motion is mediated by rupture-like slip fronts, which nucleate locally and propagate eventually along the entire interface causing global sliding.
