Numerical and experimental investigation of the influence of temperature and grain size on the fracture behavior of rock

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Understanding the fracture behavior of rocks subjected to temperature and accounting for the rock's texture is vital for safe and efficient design. Prior studies have often focused on isolated aspects of rock fracture behavior, neglecting the combined ...

Experimental Investigation of Mode I Rock Fracture Toughness

open access: yes, 2020
[Resumen] La tenacidad de fractura en modo I (KIC) es uno de los parámetros más importantes en la mecánica de fractura aplicada a rocas. KIC es una propiedad intrínseca del material que representa su capacidad para resistir su rotura a tracción en la presencia de un defecto preexistente.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

A Novel Procedure for Prediction of Mixed Mode I/II in Fracture Toughness of Laminate Composites [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2014
Delamination is one of the important modes of failure in laminated composite materials. In this respect, the mixed mode I/II fracture is the most major mode of delamination incidence in laminated composite. In the present research, a relation between the

Melt Grafting of Geometry‐Tailored Voltage Stabilizers for High‐Performance Polypropylene Insulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable one‐step melt grafting strategy is developed to enhance the dielectric properties of isotactic polypropylene by covalently incorporating thermally stable aromatic voltage stabilizers. This solvent‐free approach improves volume resistivity and DC breakdown strength through deep trap formation and charge localization, offering a sustainable ...

An ultrafast time-resolution method based on picosecond pulsed laser for determining rock fracture toughness at multipoint during the crack propagation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
An innovative ultrafast time-resolution method based on a picosecond pulsed laser was employed to investigate the mode-I crack propagation characteristics of fractured rock. Its time resolution is as fast as the degree of 45 picoseconds.

Toughening β‐Ga2O3 via Mechanically Seeded Dislocations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
β‐Ga2O3 is promising for next‐generation semiconductors but its brittleness limits flexible and high‐precision applications. Here, mechanically seeded dislocations introduced by surface deformation improved damage tolerance in (001) β‐Ga2O3. Nanoindentation and characterization show dislocations suppress cleavage cracks by enabling stable plastic ...
