Infrared spectroscopy of solid CO-CO2 mixtures and layers [PDF]
, 2005 The spectra of pure, mixed and layered CO and CO2 ices have been studied systematically under laboratory conditions using infrared spectroscopy. This work provides improved resolution spectra (0.5 cm-1) of the CO2 bending and asymmetric stretching mode ...

Investigating interfacial cracks in bi-materials through a 4-point bending model analysis [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied MechanicsThis study focuses on examining the failure behavior of interfacial cracks in bimaterial structures. Bimaterials present a unique challenge due to their composition, consisting of two materials that can be homogeneous and isotropic, with a specific ...

The Effect of Temperature and Heating–Cooling Cycles on Mode I, Mode II and Mixed-Mode I-II Fracture Toughness of Sandstone [PDF]
Muhandisī-i manābi̒-i ma̒danī, 2021 In the case of explosions and fires, the rocks undergo a cycle of heating and cooling. For that, first, they are exposed to considerable heat and then cooled after extinguishing the fire.

Crack’s bifurcation in an anisotropic material
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2012 The orthotropic of a solid is characterized by the material directions 1→,2→,3→$mathop 1limits^ o ,mathop 2limits^ o ,mathop 3limits^ o $ and corresponds to six main directions of the crack’ distribution 21, 31, 32, 12, 13 and 23 (the first number ...
