The objectives of this study were to investigate the fracture surface topography of
X8CrNiS18-9 austenitic stainless-steel specimens for different loadings and notch radii and …

Prevailing fatigue damage evaluation approaches that make use of the acoustic nonlinearity
of guided ultrasonic waves (GUWs) are sustained by simplified models, most of which depict …

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation about fatigue crack paths
and fatigue crack growth on S355J0 steel subjected to I+ II and I+ III mixed mode conditions …

Steels which are utilized in the manufacturing of specific parts of military technology such as
crankshafts of engines in heavy-duty vehicles or barrels of guns must be subsequently …

The work deals with the tests results of the growth of fatigue cracks subjected to torsion and

This paper concentrates on the analytical and numerical calculation of the critical internal
load for a pressure vessel containing a longitudinal edge crack or cracks. Initially, the …

The aim of this research was to investigate the basic performance and failure of AA2519-T62
friction stir welded joint in tensile test and in low cycle fatigue regime. It has been reported …

In this work, phase-field simulations were used to investigate the unstable crack propagation
in brittle plates fractured in bending. The evolution of crack front shapes was studied …

Sickle-shaped crack may occur on the surface of solid round cylinder under some specific
reasons such as design discontinuities or material defects. This type of crack is capable to …
