  2. 1. Tensile fracture of ice : test methods and fracture mechanics analysis

    Author : Lars Stehn; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with several aspects of fracture of both brackish (low salinity) sea ice and freshwater ice. The tests and analyses are confined to tensile, or in fracture mechanics language, Mode I, fracture. READ MORE

  4. 2. Delayed Hydride Cracking in Irradiated Zircaloy

    Author : Pål Efsing; Kjell Pettersson; Christopher Coleman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrides; hydrogen; embrittlement; delayed cracking; fracture toughness; fracture resistance; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Under some circumstances nuclear fuel cladding tubes made from zirconium based alloys may develop long axial cracks. The formation of these cracks is mainly thought to be connected with the oxiditian and hydriding of the cladding which takes plage after the the formation of a small primary defect. READ MORE

  5. 3. On numerical analyses of woven composite laminates : Homogenization, damage and fracture

    Author : Juan José Espadas Escalante; Martin Fagerström; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : This dissertation analyzes various mechanical properties of textile reinforced composite laminates.The dissertation is based on a total of six published works, which are essentially numerical, although experimental elements are available. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fatigue and Fracture of High-Strength Steels : Improving Reliability in Strength Assessment

    Author : Gustav Hultgren; Zuheir Barsoum; Rami Mansour; Torbjörn Narström; Gary Marquis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-Strength Steel; Quality assurance; Probabilistic modeling; Fatigue; Fracture mechanics; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : Structural steel plays a fundamental role in the heavy industry, serving as a key material for numerous load-bearing products and equipment. Its widespread use is attributed to its robustness, resistance to wear, ease of use in construction, and cost-effectiveness. READ MORE

  7. 5. Micromechanical modeling of cleavage fracture in polycrystalline materials

    Author : Mateusz Stec; Jonas Faleskog; Andre Pineau; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cleavage fracture; probabilistic modeling; brittle to ductile transition; cohesive zone; visco-plastic material; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik; Other technology; Övriga teknikvetenskaper;

    Abstract : Cleavage fracture in ferritic steels can be defined as a sequence of few critical steps. At first nucleation of a microcrack takes place, often in a hard inclusion. This microcrack then propagates into the surrounding matrix material. The last obstacle before failure is the encounter of grain boundaries. READ MORE
