This work contributes to the fundamental understanding of fracture properties of Particle Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites (PRMMCs), by identifying the key microstructural parameters that control fracture. To this end, PRMMCs with a high volume fraction ...
In this study, the tensile and fracture properties and the microstructure of the reduced-activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 have been investigated. This technical alloy is a 9%Cr steel developed within the European fusion material research pro ...
The three-point bending test by Kolsky-bar apparatus is a convenient technique to test the dynamic fracture properties of materials. This paper presents detailed three-dimensional finite element simulations of a silicon particle reinforced aluminum (SiCp/A ...
The influence of mode mixity on crack growth and failure at a metal/ceramic bimaterial interface is examined within the discrete dislocation (DD) plasticity framework. Plasticity occurs via the motion of dislocations embedded in a linearly elastic medium w ...
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is used in many applications requiring good optical properties, resistance to ageing and resistance to UV irradiation, in spite of its relatively poor mechanical response to impact loading. In order to extend the range of appl ...
The fracture properties of the 9CrWVTa reduced-activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 were studied in the lower ductile to brittle transition. Sub-sized pre-cracked compact tension and notched tensile specimens were tested. Finite element simu ...

This work addresses the behaviour of replicated microcellular pure aluminium under multiaxial stress states and in the presence of stress and strain localization sites. Processing of the foam was conducted in-house, using the replication process. The main ...
A critical aspect in the design of tubular bridges is the fatigue performance of the structural joints. Economic viability depends on it. Lower fatigue strength for joints with thicker failing members was observed in welded joints typical to the bridge app ...
The primary mission of the international fusion material irradiation facility (IFMIF) is to generate a material database to be used for the design of various components, for the licensing and for the assessment of the safe operation of a demonstration fusi ...
