A data-driven approach is developed to predict the fracture load of a notched component. To
do so, more than 1500 fracture tests (507 unique experimental data points) on mixed-mode …

PeriFEM is a reformulation of traditional FEM for solving peridynamic equations numerically.
It takes the nonlocal feature of peridynamics into account, and thus possesses the same …

Dynamic mixed-mode fracture of soda-lime glass (SLG) was experimentally investigated
using a full-field optical method-Digital Gradient Sensing (DGS)-in conjunction with ultrahigh …

This paper introduces a novel technique for enhancing the joint strength in structural acrylic
glass (polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA) under thermal cycling conditions. By employing bulk …

Crack propagation in brittle material is not only crucial for structural safety evaluation, but
also has a wideranging impact on material design, damage assessment, resource …

Soda-lime glass (SLG) is a widely used structural material with numerous advantages in
terms of thermal, physical, and mechanical properties besides sustainability and …
