Fracture toughness and the in-plane and out-of-plane constraint effects are studied through
experiments and computations for high-strength carbon steel 34ХН3МА. The subjects for the …

Abstract (FeCrNiCo) Al x Cu y high-entropy alloys were designed using the strategy of
equiatomic ratio, high entropy of mixing and different mixing enthalpies of atom-pairs. The …

In the present paper, an experimental program was carried out to develop JR curves using
clamped single edge notched tension (SENT) specimens. A wide range of geometrical …

It is known that the critical fracture energy value decreases with specimen thickness,
whereas the local tensile strength of the material increases with the stress triaxiality. In the …

Analyzing the structural integrity of ferritic steel structures subjected to large temperature
variations requires the collection of the fracture toughness (KJ c) of ferritic steels in the …

Abstract Three-point-bend (3 PB) test specimens are useful for the systematic investigation
of the influence of statistical and constraint loss size effects on the cleavage fracture …

In the present paper, a crack compliance analysis approach and extensive three-
dimensional finite element analysis were conducted for clamped SENT specimens, which is …

Three‐dimensional elastic–plastic finite element analyses have been conducted for 21
experimental specimens with different in‐plane and out‐of‐plane constraints in the …

The conversion problem of plane strain fracture toughness (K_ IC K IC) which is necessarily
measured according to ASTM standards, to lower constraint applications generally existing …

In this work, a systematic investigation of three-dimensional (3D) T-stresses (T 11 and T 33)
was conducted using detailed elastic finite element analysis (FEA). The interaction integral …
