In-situ SEM study of fracture of an ultrathin Al-foil-modelling of the fracture processes

Fracture behavior of an ultra thin aluminium foil was studied. For very short crack lengths, fracture has been followed in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) with a tensile stage. A single edge notched tension specimen was used. Crack length and applied load during the crack growth were measured.

Strain-driven corrosion crack growth - A pilot study of intergranular stress corrosion cracking

This work proposes a model for corrosion driven crack growth. The model poses a moving boundary problem, where a chemical attack removes material from the body. The rate of the chemical attack is a function of the strain along the body surface. No crack growth criterion is needed for the analysis. A finite strain formulation is used and the material model is assumed hyperelastic. The problem is st

Mode II crack paths under compression in brittle solids - a theory and experimental comparison

A study of crack propagation paths in the situation where the crack is suppressed to open during growth due to high compressive forces has been performed. This problem was analyzed theoretically very recently by the authors and is here extended to involve a limited number of illustrative experimental results reported elsewhere in the literature.

Prediction of shear crack growth direction under compressive loading and plane strain conditions

A directional crack growth prediction in a compressed homogenous elastic isotropic material under plane strain conditions is considered. The conditions at the parent crack tip are evaluated for a straight stationary crack. Remote load is a combined biaxial compressive normal stress and pure shear.

Crack kinking under high pressure in an elastic-plastic material

Directional crack growth criteria in compressed elastic-plastic materials are considered. The conditions at the crack tip are evaluated for a straight stationary crack.

Analysis of a crack in and near an elastically graded material

The behaviour of the stress intensity factor is investigated for a long plane crack with one tip interacting with a strip of graded elastic properties. The material outside the strip is postulated to be homogeneous linear elastic and the material in the graded region is assumed to have continuous change of modulus of elasticity. Changes of the Poisson’s ratio are ignored. The body is assumed to be

Intrinsic Functions for Non-homogeneous Elastic Materials

A special choice of two functions is proposed for analysing non-homogeneous materials, when both modulus of elasticity and Poisson’s ratio experience spatial variations. It is shown that in the case of abrupt change of the two basic material’s characteristics, these two functions degenerate to constants, which are linear combinations of Dundurs’ parameters. The properties of the two functions are

Crack growth across a strength mismatched bimaterial interface

Crack growth across an interface between materials with different strength is examined by a cohesive zone model. The two materials have identical elastic properties but different fracture process properties, or different yield stresses, which is modeled by different cohesive stresses. The fracture criteria is a critical crack opening displacement. Load is represented by a stress intensity factor d

Using a dislocation simulation approach, the basic equation for a crack perpendicular to a bimaterial interface is formulated in this paper.

On the behavior of crack surface ligaments

Small ligaments connecting the fracture surfaces just behind a moving crack front are assumed to exist under certain conditions. The ligaments are rapidly torn as the crack advances. Inelastic straining of such ligaments influences the energy balance in the fracture process. The rapid tearing of a single ligament is studied both numerically and experimentally.
