When strained in tension, high-manganese austenitic TWIP steels achieve very high
strength and elongation before necking. They also present serrated flow within a certain …

Influence of severe plastic deformation (SPD) on plastic instability associated with the
Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) effect was investigated in an AlMg alloy in a high strain-rate …

A digital image correlation (DIC) technique has been adapted to polycrystalline ice
specimens in order to characterize the development of strain heterogeneities at an …

The Portevin–Le Chatelier (PLC) effect in an Al–3.2% Mg alloy is investigated using velocity-
driven tensile tests at room temperature, in a strain rate range where the crossover from …

High-pressure turbine disks are subjected to extreme mechanical and thermal loadings
throughout their lifetime. This is the reason why during the design of turboshaft engines …

The jerky flow in an Al–Mg alloy is studied during simple shear tests at room temperature
and various strain rates. Direct observations of the sample surface using digital image …

The mechanical behavior of 5000 series aluminium alloy sheets has been investigated in
simple shear, in order to highlight the influence of strain rate and temperature on the …

Validation and identification of micromechanical models are very exacting and sensitive
tasks. The experimental identification process must provide the necessary data to verify that …

Fatigue failure is the main type of failure that occurs in gas turbine engine blades and an
online monitoring method for detecting fatigue cracks in blades is urgently needed …

By using a coupled acoustic emission (AE) and digital image correlation (DIC) technique,
the failure behavior of air plasma sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) was investigated …
