Unified scenario for the morphology of crack paths in two-dimensional disordered solids [PDF]
A combined experimental and numerical investigation of the roughness of intergranular cracks in two-dimensional disordered solids is presented. We focus on brittle materials for which the characteristic length scale of damage is much smaller than the ...

Reliability analysis and micromechanics: A coupled approach for composite failure prediction [PDF]
This work aims at associating two classical approaches for the design of composite materials: first, reliability methods that allow to account for the various uncertainties involved in the composite materials behaviour and lead to a rational estimation ...

Microcracks closure effects in initially orthotropic materials [PDF]
Microcracking is one of the basic mechanisms of inelastic deformation for a large class of anisotropic materials such as brittle matrix composites. Even at fixed microcracks density, the macroscopic behavior of these materials is very complex due to the ...

Multifunctional Hierarchical Cellular Solids [PDF]
Due to their peculiar low density properties, cellular solids are widely used in industries and play a very important role in our daily life. Two of the most studied celluar solids are honeycombs and foams. With the development of nanotechnology, another

A New Model for Void Coalescence by Internal Necking [PDF]
A micromechanical model for predicting the strain increment required to bring a damaged material element from the onset of void coalescence up to final fracture is developed based on simple kinematics arguments.

Predicting the onset of rafting of c 0 precipitates by channel deformation in a Ni superalloy [PDF]
The growth or shrinkage, normal to 001, of the interfaces between the γ matrix and cuboidal γ' precipitates is examined for a Ni-base superalloy, by considering the force acting on the interfaces. The force is produced by the precipitate coherency misfit

Energy-Minimizing Microstructures in Multiphase Elastic Solids [PDF]
This thesis concerns problems of microstructure and its macroscopic consequences in multiphase elastic solids, both single crystals and polycrystals. The elastic energy of a two-phase solid is a function of its microstructure.
