Using the established optical methods of frozen stress photoelasticity and moiré
interferometry, the author and his colleagues, by introducing some standard refinements …

Three dimensional fracture mechanics was done by several groups in the past. One topic for
these three dimensional fracture mechanics is to consider re-entrant corners or wedges for …

The crack-tip displacement field of a central cracked plate of finite size is herein examined to
determine the nature of the stress field singularity in cracked-body geometries of this kind …

The increasing use of modern composite materials in product development nowadays
requires the development of virtual product development methods for these materials. As …

An experimental investigation using grids with a frequency of 125 lines/in.(5 lines/mm) was
performed on inert propellant and pure binder at two different global head rates of 0.1 in./min …
