The failure mode and strength of rock are often evaluated using failure criteria that (i) neglect the intermediate principal stress or (ii) examine conditions over a limited range ofmean stress. Review of the literature, however, shows that tests involving ...
Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) automotive inertial measurement units were subjected to severe accumulative stress conditions: thermal shocks (high temperature gradients), temperature cycling (low gradients) and mechanical vibration are combined in an A-th ...
We investigate the strain state of ensembles of thin and nearly coalescence-free self-assembled GaN nanowires prepared by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on Ti/Al2O3 (0001) substrates. The shifts of Bragg peaks in high-resolution X-ray diffraction p ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials are currently being selected for the design of lightweight and efficient structural members in a wide number of engineering applications. Sandwich panels with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) face she ...
Hydraulic fracturing involves injecting water under high pressure into the bedrock formation to enhance permeability of deep geo-reservoirs. Faults are planar discontinuities cutting the reservoirs, and their reactivation during injection depends of their ...
A novel approach which combines isogeometric collocation and an equilibriumbased stress recovery technique is applied to analyze laminated composite plates. Isogeometric collocation is an appealing strong form alternative to standard Galerkin approaches, a ...
Brittle reactivation of pre-existing faults is theoretically constrained by their friction, the stress field orientation, and magnitude. Thus, following the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, the increase in tectonic shear stress leads to the reactivation of ...
A novel approach which combines isogeometric collocation and an equilibrium-based stress recovery technique is applied to analyze laminated composite plates. Isogeometric collocation is an appealing strong form alternative to standard Galerkin approaches, ...
Faults in the brittle crust constitute preexisting weakness zones that can be reactivated depending on their friction, orientation within the local stress field, and stress field magnitude. Analytical approaches to evaluate the potential for fault reactiva ...
In the present project a not well-known method has been studied, the dry reopening test DRT. This is a method used to estimate the in-situ stress field of a soil and was. In the context of the project, the test was used to estimate the stress field in the ...
