  4. 17. Initiation and early crack growth in VHCF of stainless steels : Experimental and theoretical analysis

    Author : Muhammad Waqas Tofique; Jens Bergstöm; Nils Hallbäck; Thierry Pallin-Luc; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Very High Cycle Fatigue; Stainless steel; Ultrasonic fatigue testing; Crack initiation; Crystallographic crack growth; Distributed Dislocation Dipole Technique; Closed cracks; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : Mechanical fatigue is a failure phenomenon that occurs due to repeated application of mechanical loads. Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) is considered as the domain of fatigue life greater than 10 million load cycles. READ MORE

  5. 18. Oxygen Induced High Temperature Crack Growth in Ni-base Superalloys

    Author : Leif Viskari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diffusion; Environmental influence; Crack growth; Atom probe tomography; Electron Microscopy; Deformation; Crack tip oxidation; Hold-time fatigue;

    Abstract : Oxygen induced crack growth is a serious concern for the performance of Ni-base superalloys. These alloys are used in gas-turbine engines where they are exposed to hightemperatures, mechanical loads and oxygen-rich environments. READ MORE

  6. 19. Predicting shear type crack initiation and growth in concrete with non-linear finite element method

    Author : Richard Malm; Håkan Sundquist; Anders Ansell; Kent Gylltoft; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-linear finte element analysis; concrete; crack width; crack propagation; shear; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract :   In this thesis, the possibility to numerically describing the behaviour that signifies shear type cracking in concrete is studied. Different means for describing cracking are evaluated where both methods proposed in design codes based on experiments and advanced finite element analyses with a non-linear material description are evaluated.

  7. 20. Behaviour of fracture process zones in concrete influenced by simultaneously applied normal and shear displacements

    Author : Manouchehr Hassanzadeh; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; softening; mixed mode; fictitious crack model; concrete; deformationer; betong; brottmekanik; hållfasthet; brotthållfasthet; spänningar; skjuvspänningar; sprickor; beräkningsmodeller; brottenergi; teori; laboratorieförsök; interlock; crack path; diagonal crack; microcracking; instability; fracture energy; fracture mechanics; shear; tension; process zone;

    Abstract : The thesis deals with the determination of the post peak behaviour of concrete in pure tension, and combined tension (compression) and shear. A test arrangement has been developed in order to determine the post peak behaviour of concrete expressed as stress - displacement curves. READ MORE
