The computer-assisted moire technique and finite element computations were used to determine displacements, strains and stresses in the neighborhood of a crack tip. The measurements were performed in an aluminum 6061-T6 compact tension specimen. The experimentally determined stresses were compared t

โฆ Synopsis
Akatraet-An exact relationship is obtained for the rate of energy dissipation due to plastic work for a transition model of mode III crack propagation. It is found that the rate of energy dissipation increases monotonically as the transition in plastic zone shape changes from the inBnite&nally-thin line segment of the Chetepanov plastic strip solution to the circular shape of the Huh and McClintock elastoplastic solution. Between these two limiting cases, the plastic zone assumes an elliptical shape. This analysis might serve as an analytical tool for the investigation of irreversible fracture processes.

This paper investigates a low-velocity-layer (LVL) model for an artificial subsurface fracture examining dispersions of crack waves. Subsurface fractures are important in extracting geothermal energy. The crack waves are seismic modes propagating along the fracture. The LVL represents a zone in whic
In many long-term chronic diseases, patients pass through an observable sequence of ordered clinical states as their condition progressively worsens. Often the information on which disease state the patient is in is incompletely recorded, usually with information only available on the occasion of a
