Slip avalanches in a fiber bundle model [PDF]
, 2010 We study slip avalanches in disordered materials under an increasing external load in the framework of a fiber bundle model. Over-stressed fibers of the model do not break, instead they relax in a stick-slip event which may trigger an entire slip ...

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The insulating core is an important part of pillar composite insulators used in power transmission systems. Traditional insulating core materials suffer from various problems that can threaten the reliability of insulated equipment. Syntactic foam (SF) exhibits excellent properties, such as a low density, water penetration resistance and high ...

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In order to meet the needs of mechanical properties of cable insulation, polypropylene (PP) needs to be blended with low modulus materials to achieve toughening and softening. However, the compatibility between two or more resins can significantly affect the electrical properties of the composites.

Contact Strength and Cracking of Laminar Ceramics
High Temperature Materials and Processes, 2012 The paper deals with the determination of strength of laminar ceramics by mechanical tests in bending and contact modes. The bending and contact modes are simulated by the four-point bending test, and by single-cycle contact test using rollers or spheres,
