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 ...
Numerical investigations are conducted to simulate high-speed crack propagation in pre-strained PNMA plates. In the simulations, the dynamic material separation is explicitly modeled by cohesive elements incorporating an initially rigid, linear-decaying co ...
Fibres fracture gradually during the fatigue cycling of continuous alumina fibre reinforced aluminium. The number of fibre breaks increases linearly with the logarithmic cycle number, depends on the maximum stress and the stress ratio, and agrees with publ ...
A computational analysis of the longitudinal deformation of continuous fibre reinforced metals is presented. Elastic and elastic-plastic matrix behaviour are considered. Analytical approaches are confronted with finite element analyses (FEA) for varying fi ...
Following ICOM’s participation in the redaction of a new recommendation for the evaluation of existing railway-bridges, in collaboration with the SBB/CFF, new questions have been raised. Among those, the influence of a welded longitudinal attachment ends s ...
In composite processing, a compressible dry fiber preform is in many cases impregnated by a molten polymeric matrix. The impregnated part is sometimes used as produced, but most often it requires a reheating step before stamping, flow molding or even paint ...
Metal matrix composites are known for their excellent specific mechanical properties. Nevertheless, because of the thermal expansion mismatch between the matrix and the reinforcements, thermal stresses arise at the interfaces of such materials. In order to ...
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 relationships between applied stress, deformation and internal pressure of water filled inclusions embedded in soft soils were studied to improve understanding of pore-scale mechanical behavior and towards development of methods for in situ measurement ...
This paper describes the production of an adaptive composite by embedding thin pre-strained shape memory alloy actuators into a Kevlar-epoxy host material. In order to combine the activation and sensing capabilities, fibre Bragg grating sensors are also em ...
