  1. 1. The effect of stress state in ductile failure

    Author : Imad Barsoum; Jonas Faleskog; Viggo Tvergaard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ductile failure; Rupture mechanisms; Stress triaxiality; Lode parameter; Finite element analysis; Experiments; Localization; Micromechanics; Void growth; Void coalescence; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The industrial application of high strength steels in structural components has increased the demand on understanding the ductile failure behavior of this type of materials. In practical situations the loading experienced on components made out of these materials can be very complex, which may affect the failure behavior. READ MORE

  2. 2. Ductile failure and rupture mechanisms in combined tension and shear

    Author : Imad Barsoum; Jonas Faleskog; Björn Skallerud; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis is generally concerned with the ductile failure and rupture mechanisms encountered under combined tension and torsion loading. In the first part entitled Paper A, an experimental investigation of the rupture mechanisms in a mid-strength and a high strength steel was conducted employing a novel test configuration. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modelling and characterisation of fracture properties of advanced high strength steels

    Author : Rickard Östlund; Greger Bergman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : Growing demands for passenger safety, vehicle performance and fueleconomy is a continuous driving force for the increase in use of advancedhigh strength steels (AHSS) in the automotive industry. Thesesteels area characterised by improved formability and crash worthinesscompared to conventional steel grades. READ MORE

  4. 4. An Approach on Material Model Calibration for Modelling of Sheet Metal Deformation and Failure

    Author : Stefan Marth; Hans-Åke Häggblad; Mats Oldenburg; Jörgen Kajberg; Odd Sture Hopperstad; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Sheet metals are often used in automotive and aerospace applications for safety-relevant components. Weight reduction is one possibility to reduce fuel consumption or increase the payload capacity and therewith reduce the carbondioxide emission of these trans-portation vehicles. READ MORE

  5. 5. Nonlinear Elasticity of Fiber Masses

    Author : Mårten Alkhagen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The mechanical properties of fiber masses are important in many fields of engineering such as upholstery, paper making, and composite manufacturing, and a fair amount of work has gone into analyzing these properties. However, previous theories have been limited to simple deformations and a restrictive choice of deformation mechanism. READ MORE
