Modeling of Spall Fracture in Brittle Solids

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 1997
This is a synthetic and critical review of the selected theories of brittle spall fracture. Since the main body of research clone on spalling can actually be credited to a few research institutions, the papers selected for this overview are classified ...

Evaluating Energy Absorption Performance of Filled Lattice Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Maximum stress must be considered to robustly evaluate energy absorber designs. This approach was applied to compare all types of absorbers in a single Ashby diagram and determine the utility of filling lattice voids with a second material. High‐performance fillers can improve the performance of lattices that are limited by buckling or catastrophic ...

Experimental Study on Variable-Amplitude Fatigue of Welded Cross Plate-Hollow Sphere Joints in Grid Structures

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
The fatigue stress amplitude of the welded cross plate-hollow sphere joint (WCPHSJ) in a grid structure varies due to the random loading produced by suspending cranes. A total of 14 specimens considering three different types of WCPHSJs were prepared and

Fractional Calculus for Continuum Mechanics - anisotropic non-locality

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper the generalisation of previous author's formulation of fractional continuum mechanics to the case of anisotropic non-locality is presented. The considerations include the review of competitive formulations available in literature.

Ionizing radiation impact on the mechanical properties of a wood-plastic composite: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper reviews the effect of radiation on the mechanical properties of WPC. WPC can be defined as mixture of wood in a polymer matrix. Composite that used in this research mainly consists of 40% polyethylene (PE), 50 % wood fiber and the rest is ...

Numerical simulation of ratcheting and fatigue behaviour of mitred pipe bends under in-plane bending and internal pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper investigates the ratcheting and fatigue behaviour of 90 degree single unreinforced mitred pipe bends subjected to a cyclic in-plane closing moment with a non-zero mean value and constant internal pressure. An experiment was conducted to induce
