Analysis of Mixed-Mode I/II/III Fracture Toughness Based on a Three-Point Bending Sandstone Specimen with an Inclined Crack

Applied Sciences, 2021
The crack-propagation form may appear as an arbitrary mixed-mode fracture in an engineering structure due to an irregular internal crack. It is of great significance to research the mixed-mode fracture of materials with cracks.

A thermodynamically consistent derivation of a frictional-damage cohesive-zone model with different mode i and mode II fracture energies [PDF]

, 2015
The present paper deals with the derivation of an interface model characterized by macroscopic fracture energies which are different in modes I and II, the macroscopic fracture energy being the total energy dissipated per unit of fracture area.

Strong embedded discontinuities for simulating fracture in quasi-brittle materials [PDF]

, 2011
In this paper embedded strong discontinuities are used to model discrete cracking in materials like concrete. In the approach followed a discontinuous displacement field is considered and the deformation is localized at a surface of zero width.

Curve fitting of mixed-mode isopachics

, 2009
Recent work has focused on exploiting the observation that the stress-sum contours (isopachics), obtained from TSA, in the vicinity of the tip take the form of a simple curve – the cardioid.

A Comprehensive Mixed-Mode Time-Domain Load- and Source-Pull Measurement System [PDF]

, 2010
We present a novel test set devised for nonlinear balanced device characterization using load-pull techniques. The system is capable of measuring the voltage and current waveforms at the calibration reference planes while independently tuning the device ...
