Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The mechanical behaviour of metallic materials that have a microstructure composed of a brittle phase embedded in a ductile matrix is dictated by a complex interplay of factors such as local phase properties, cohesive properties, geometrical characteristic ...
A material is intrinsically ductile under Mode I loading when the critical stress intensity K-Ie for dislocation emission is lower than the critical stress intensity K-Ic for cleavage. K-Ie is usually evaluated using the approximate Rice theory, which pred ...
We revisit the problem of the propagation of a plane-strain fluid-driven fracture in a quasi-brittle impermeable medium accounting for the presence of a fluid lag. The fracture process zone is simulated using a linear-softening cohesive model while lubrica ...
The reduced activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 is a reference steel for a structural applica-tions in fusion reactors. The first-wall and blanket materials will be subjected to high thermal and neutron fluxes and will experience very complex, ...
Three point bending and impact tests with sub-sized Charpy specimens were performed on the JRQ reference steel for reactor pressure vessels. Quasi-static and dynamic fracture toughness data were calculated and the fracture behavior in the ductile to brittl ...
Atomistic modeling of fracture is intended to illuminate the complex response of atoms in the very high stressed region just ahead of a sharp crack. Accurate modeling of the atomic scale fracture is crucial for describing the intrinsic nature of a material ...
Since the early years of the linear elastic theory of fracture [linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM)], scientists have sought to understand and predict how fast cracks grow in a material or slip fronts propagate along faults. While shear cracks can tra ...
Fracture is the main cause of degradation and capacity fading in lithiated silicon during cycling. Experiments on the fracture of lithiated silicon show conflicting results, and so mechanistic models can help interpret experiments and guide component desig ...
Available acceptance and rejection criteria for discontinuities in steel components of a welded assembly focus only on a minimum limit for the steel fracture toughness and a maximum limit for the size of the discontinuity. However, other critical parameter ...
Room-temperature fracture along the (111) plane of silicon is probed at the micron-scale using chevron notched cantilever beams that enable stable crack growth before unstable fracture in successful tests. The main experimental observation is that a growin ...
