Microstructural Parameters in the Theory of Critical Distances

Materials Science Forum, 2007
The work described below investigates, for the first time, the link between microstructural parameters such as grain size and the length constant L which is known as the critical distance. L is frequently used in the prediction of failure processes such as brittle fracture and fatigue, initiated at stress concentration features such as notches.

The Theory of Critical Distances: A link to micromechanisms

Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics, 2017
Abstract The Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) is a methodology for prediction of the effect of stress concentration features on material failure, especially cracking-related mechanisms such as fatigue and brittle fracture. It has a long history but has become much more relevant to industrial problems in recent years thanks to the widespread ...

Fatigue Failure Analysis Using the Theory of Critical Distance

Key Engineering Materials, 2011
This paper explores the initial potential of theory of critical distance (TCD) which offers essential fatigue failure prediction in engineering components. The intention is to find the most appropriate TCD approach for a case of multiple stress concentration features in future research.

The Theory of Critical Distances: Applications in Fatigue

2008
This papers reviews the use of the Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) to predict high-cycle fatigue strength of real components when the complexity of their geometry causes stress concentration phenomena.

Fatigue analysis of riveted connections using the theory of critical distances

2021
A large number of old metallic bridges have complex riveted details that pose challenges during their fatigue assessment using detail-specific S-N curves. In this paper, the fatigue life prediction capability of a novel method, the Theory of Critical Distances (TCD), which relies on the fatigue properties of the plain material only is investigated ...

Applications of critical point theory of distance functions to geometry

Geometriae Dedicata, 1991
The author uses the critical point theory of distance functions to obtain two results. First he considers a complete open manifold \(M^ n\) of nonnegative sectional curvature and rapidly increasing volume and gives a new proof for the following Theorem A [the reviewer and \textit{V. Toponogov}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 26, No.

Applying the Critical Theory of Library Technology to Distance Library Services

Journal of Library & Information Services in Distance Learning, 2010
The re-envisioning of libraries as information leaders in higher education requires an examination of the decisions made in the acquisition and adoption of library technology. The Critical Theory of Library Technology offers a framework for viewing technology decisions through a social, economic and political perspective.

Analysis of fatigue failures in components using the theory of critical distances

Engineering Failure Analysis, 2005
Abstract This paper explores the use of the theory of critical distances (TCD) in the prediction of high-cycle fatigue behaviour in engineering components. Theories of this type have been in use for over 50 years in various forms, and recently have been brought up to date by linking them with linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM).
