Non-destructive testing (NDT) of structures is one of the most important tasks of the proper
maintenance and diagnosis of machines and constructions structural condition. NDT …

To understand the crashworthiness safety of lithium-ion battery (LIB) comprehensively,
acoustic emission (AE) testing technology is introduced to explore the mechanical response …

The safety of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) remains the focus of engineering and scientific
attention as its bending failure cannot be monitored by conventional means such as voltage …

This paper introduces a new acoustic emission (AE) characteristic to determine the
deformation stage of metals under quasi-static loading. The AE characteristic is extracted …

Dynamics of the deformation band formation during creep in an Al–Mg alloy was
investigated by simultaneous high-speed video recording of deformation bands with an …

Driven by high energy prices and strict legal requirements on CO2 emissions, highstrength
sheet steel materials are increasingly gaining importance in the automotive industry …

The Lüders plateau behaviour is a phenomenon of stress discontinuity associated with
strain localisation which can affect the fracture behaviour of mild steel subjected to plastic …

In order to advance the understanding of fracture failure mechanisms in concrete, a series of
three‐point bend tests of pre‐notched specimens were conducted to study the …

This paper presents an experimental study into the influence of localization length (L c) and
its evolution during the postpeak response of cylindrical low-carbon steel bars. A novel …

In this study, the effects of open-die cold forging on corrosion behavior of pressure vessel
sheet (A516 GR70) were investigated. To reduce the effect of the spring back a die with high …
