Using video detection of snow surface movements to estimate weak layer crack propagation speeds

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Bertil Trottet, Alec van Herwijnen

Dry-snow slab avalanches release due to crack propagation in a weak snow layer under a cohesive snow slab. Crack propagation speeds can provide insights into the potential size of avalanches and inform fracture and avalanche release models. Despite their i ...

Natural aging and vacancy trapping in Al-6xxx

William Curtin, Michele Ceriotti

Undesirable natural aging (NA) in Al-6xxx delays subsequent artificial aging (AA) but the size, composition, and evolution of clustering are challenging to measure. Here, atomistic details of early-stage clustering in Al-1% Mg-0.6%Si during NA are studied ...

Effect of Y2O3 dispersoids on microstructure and creep properties of Hastelloy X processed by laser powder-bed fusion

Christian Leinenbach

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) was used to consolidate powders of a Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo alloy (Hastelloy X) blended with 1 wt% Y2O3 nanometric powders. The nearly-dense, crack-free specimens, with and without oxide dispersion strengthening (ODS), exhibit high-aspe ...

Crack propagation speeds in weak snowpack layers

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Jürg Schweizer, Bertil Trottet, Grégoire Bobillier, Alec van Herwijnen

For the release of a slab avalanche, crack propagation within a weak snowpack layer below a cohesive snow slab is required. As crack speed measurements can give insight into underlying processes, we analysed three crack propagation events that occurred in ...

Experimental investigation of the cyclic properties of welds in mild structural steels

Selimcan Ozden

Structural steels have long been used in construction applications. Their mechanical properties and behavior under seismic loading or under fatigue design are of considerable interest for researchers and engineers. Although extensive studies have been cond ...
