  1. 1. In-Plane Fracture of Paper

    Author : Johan Tryding; Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggnadsteknik; Building construction; Paper; Fracture energy; Strain softening; Localized damage; Fracture mechanics;

    Abstract : The in-plane failure of paper is studied in this work by means of a cohesive crack model from experimental as well as theoretical perspectives. Localized damage at in-plane tension of short paper strips is studied for low strain rates. READ MORE

  2. 2. On dental ceramics and their fracture : a laboratory and numerical study

    Author : Wen Kou; Göran Sjögren; Tore Dérand; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dental ceramics; Finite element analysis; Fixed partial denture; Fracture; Numerical modeling; Surface treatment; Biomaterials; Biomaterial; odontologi; Odontology;

    Abstract : Background Surface treatments and irregularities in the surfaces may affect the fracture of ceramics. The effects of various treatments on the surface texture of different types of ceramic cores/substructures was therefore qualitatively, quantitatively and numerically evaluated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Heterogeneous Bonded Particle Modelling of Rock Fracture

    Author : Albin Wessling; Jörgen Kajberg; Simon Larsson; Pär Jonsén; Timo Saksala; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rock; DEM; BPM; fracture; drilling; dynamic; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Abstract : The dynamic fracture process of rock materials is of importance for several industries, such as the rock drilling process in geothermal and mining applications. Gaining knowledge and understanding of dynamic rock fracture through numerical simulations can enhance the rock drilling process, for example by optimising the drill bit geometry and drilling parameters.

  4. 4. Deformation and Fracture Behavior of Transparent Wood-Polymer Biocomposites

    Author : Erik Jungstedt; Lars Berglund; Sören Östlund; Bent Sørensen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biocomposites; fracture mechanics; strain field measurement; cohesive zone modeling; mechanical properties; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Abstract : Transparent wood-polymer biocomposites (TWPBs) are interesting wood-based materials with a unique combination of optical transmittance and mechanical properties. The wood substrate is delignified (removal of lignin) while the wood microstructure is preserved. READ MORE

  5. 5. Ageing behavior of plastics used in automotive fuel systems

    Author : Xin-Feng Wei; Mikael S. Hedenqvist; Richard Olsson; Ulf W Gedde; Pieter Gijsman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automotive; Ageing; Polyamide; Diesel; Biodiesel; Diffusion; Oxidation; Plasticizer migration; Mechanical properties; Fracture behavior.; Fordon; Åldrande; Polyamid; Diesel; Biodiesel; Diffusion; Oxidation; Mjukgöraravgång; Mekaniska egenskaper; Brottegenskaper;

    Abstract : The increase in service temperature and the use of biobased fuels, such as biodiesel, have raised concerns on the short/long-term performance of plastic components used in automotive fuel systems.In this work the ageing behavior of unreinforced and glass-fibre reinforced polyamide 12 (PA12), exposed to three different fuels (petroleum diesel, biodiesel, and a mixture of these (80/20)) at high temperature, was investigated.
