  1. 11. Modeling framework for ageing of low alloy steel

    Author : Magnus Boåsen; Pål Efsing; Jonas Faleskog; Carl F. O. Dahlberg; Christian Niordson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low alloy steel; length scale effects; size effects; plasticity; cleavage fracture; brittle fracture; weakest link; ageing; weld metal; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Ageing of low alloy steel in nuclear applications commonly takes the form as a hardening and an embrittlement of the material. This is due to the evolution of the microstructure during irradiation and at purely thermal conditions, as a combination or separate. READ MORE

  2. 12. Modelling of intergranular stress corrosion cracking mechanism : Du som saknar dator/datorvana kan kontakta [email protected] för information

    Author : Michal Sedlak Mosesson; Bo Alfredsson; Thierry Couvant; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cohesive Zone Model; Fracture Mechanics; Diffusion; Duplex oxide; Multi-physics; Finite Element Model; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : When assessing nuclear power plant life, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) plays an important role. Stress corrosion cracking in nuclear power plants is well recognized and heavily researched. Still due to its complicated nature it is not completely understood. There are many different damage mechanisms behind SCC. READ MORE

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

    Author : Juan José Espadas Escalante; Martin Fagerström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering science with specialization in Applied Mechanics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tillämpad mekanik;

    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

  4. 14. A Fracture Mechanics Approach to Study Hydrogen Embrittlement in High Strength Martensitic Steels

    Author : Armin E. Halilović; Pål Efsing; Jonas Faleskog; Carl F.O. Dahlberg; Covadonga Betegon; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Abstract : High strength steels that are subjected to hydrogen experience embrittlement where the mechanical properties are reduced, and premature failure of components may occur. Although the phenomenon has been recognized for over 150 years, it is not clear what drives embrittlement. READ MORE

  5. 15. Fracture and stress in powder compacts

    Author : Pär Jonsén; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : In the field of powder metallurgy (PM), the production methods are constantly developed and improved to produce components with high precision and strength. Cold uniaxial pressing of powder into a green body is a common process in PM. READ MORE
