Critical hardening rate model for predicting path-dependent ductile fracture [PDF]
A new phenomenological framework for predicting ductile fracture after non-proportional loading paths is proposed, implemented into FE software and validated experimentally for a limited set of monotonic and reverse loading conditions.

Constitutive modeling of the anisotropic behavior of Mullins softened filled rubbers [PDF]
Original constitutive modeling is proposed for filled rubber materials in order to capture the anisotropic softened behavior induced by general non-proportional pre-loading histo-ries.

Extraction of biological hydroxyapatite from tuna fish bone for biomedical applications [PDF]
Natural hydroxyapatite (HAp) is known for its common use in biomedical applications including in orthopaedic and implantation. HAp can be extracted from natural resources such as eggshells, fish bones and coral.

On the assessment of multiaxial fatigue damage under variable amplitude loading [PDF]
In this work, the performance of the SSF criterion is evaluated under variable amplitude loading conditions. The main objective was to inspect the validity of the hypothesis in which the SSF damage map remains valid for any high strength steel.

A comparison of the physiological consequences of head-loading and back-loading for African and European women [PDF]
The aim is to quantify the physiological cost of head-load carriage and to examine the ‘free ride’ hypothesis for head-load carriage in groups of women differing in their experience of head-loading.

Sharp three-dimensional notches under combined nominal normal and shear fatigue loading [PDF]
Many engineering structures are exposed to non-proportional fatigue loading. However, at the critical location of crack initiation, often only one of the load sequences dominates – the individual load cases result in different crack initiation sites ...

Strain hardening under non-proportional loading in polycrystalline aluminum alloys
In the paper it is postulated that the so-called common slip domains influence the character of the strain hardening phenomena for complex loading paths.

Shortcuts in multiple dimensions: the multiaxial racetrack filter [PDF]
Filtering techniques have been proposed for multiaxial load histories, usually aiming to filter out non-reversals, i.e. sampling points that do not constitute a reversal in any of its stress or strain components. However, the path between two reversals
