Applications of the theory of critical distances in failure analysis [PDF]
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2011 Abstract The Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) is the name which I use to describe a group of methods employed for the prediction of failure in cases where stress concentrations are present and where the failure mode involves cracking, such as fatigue and brittle fracture. Some of these methods are more than 50 years old, some very recent.

Inverse Ising inference, hyperuniformity and absorbing states in the Manna model [PDF]
, 2018 Using inverse Ising inference we show that the absorbing states of the one-dimensional Manna model can be described by an equilibrium model with an emergent interaction displaying short-ranged repulsion and long-ranged attraction. As the model approaches

Estimation of fretting fatigue life using a multiaxial stress-based critical distance methodology [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2015 This work presents a methodology for life estimation of mechanical couplings subjected to fretting fatigue. In this approach, a stress-based multiaxial fatigue parameter is evaluated at a critical distance below the contact surface.

THEORY OF CRITICAL DISTANCES AND THE THICKNESS OF THE SURFACE LAYER
, 2023 The theory of critical distances is based on the strength of materials L, which is given by its strength properties KIc and σ0. We have shown that the thickness of the surface layer R(I) is equal to the nanocrack length Lnm. We have shown that there is a relationship between L and Lnm: L = 104 Lnm = 104 R(I) ≈ 10-5 М/ρ.

Correlation Functions of a Conformal Field Theory in Three Dimensions [PDF]
, 1994 We derive explicit forms of the two--point correlation functions of the $O(N)$ non-linear sigma model at the critical point, in the large $N$ limit, on various three dimensional manifolds of constant curvature.

Fatigue Life Prediction of Pump Head Materials Based on the Theory of Critical Distances
Shiyou jixie, 2020 To study whether the critical distance theory can reasonably predict the fatigue life of a notched specimen, the finite element model for the chrome-nickel alloy notched specimen of a certain pump head material was established, and the linear elastic ...
