Being good structural replacement for other conventional material, the pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles are being increasingly used in civil engineering structures. The connection between components is considered the most suspect ar ...
Elastoplastic toughness testing of pure aluminium replicated foam is conducted following a J-procedure adapted from the ASTM E1820-08a standard using disc-shaped compact tension specimens. Tests cover a wide range of foam relative density V-m (10-24%). Res ...
In this work we have studied brittle fracture in high-chromium reduced activation tempered martensitic steels foreseen as structural materials for thermonuclear fusion reactors. Developing the adequate materials that can withstand the severe irradiation co ...
Fracture tests have been performed on 333 flexure hinges of various shapes machined in monocrystalline silicon by Deep Reactive Ion Etching. The results show the significant effects of stress concentration, crystalline orientation and surface treatments on ...
The Mode I and II fracture behaviors of adhesively-bonded joints composed of pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates were experimentally investigated using Double-Cantilever-Beam (DCB) and End-Loaded-Split (ELS) specimens. The large speci ...
In liquid metal spallation targets such as the MEGAPIE (the megawatt pilot experiment) target and the future ADS (accelerator driven system) spallation targets, which utilize liquid lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) as the target material, liquid metal embrittle ...
The fracture properties of the tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97, which is among the main candidates for fusion power plant structural applications, were studied with two sizes of pre-cracked compact specimens (0.35T C(T) and 0.87T C(T)). The fracture t ...
The irradiation hardening of the Eurofer97 steel following 590 MeV proton irradiations was determined at three different irradiation temperatures, 50 °C, 250 °C and 350 °C, and various doses up to about 1.3 displacement per atom. The dose and temperature d ...
A framework for accurately modeling fatigue crack growth in ductile crystalline solids is necessarily multiscale The creation of new free surface occurs at the atomistic scale, where the material's cohesive strength is controlled by the local chemistry On ...
As the upper temperature for use of reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steels is presently limited by a drop in mechanical strength at about 550 degrees C, Europe, Japan and the US are actively researching steels with high strength at higher operating ...
