Recent evidence has pointed to the possible inadequacy of elastodynamic treatments of rapid crack propagation and crack arrest. This paper describes the development of a dynamic elastic-plastic finite element capability designed to address this concern by taking direct account of crack tip plasticit

The fracture of sintered tungsten carbide-cobalt is discussed and analyzed by applying continuum mechanics on the microscale. A plane model of rigid, hexagonal inclusions in an elastic-perfectly plastic matrix is taken to represent WC particles in a Co matrix. The continuum model employed here is us
A ยฎnite element model of dendritic solidiยฎcation of multicomponent alloys is presented that includes solutal convection and is an extension of a previously developed model for solidiยฎcation of binary alloys. The model is applied to simulation of the solidiยฎcation of ternary and quaternary Ni-based a
A series of studies which demonstrate the potential of a proposed mode I1 fracture specimen are reported. First, previously obtained photoelastie results&31 are reviewed so that this paper will be self-contained. Then, a finite element analysis is presented in order not only to corroborate the exper

K,, values of various grades of WC-Co alloys seem to correlate with the single microstructural parameter, thickness of the binder phase. The correlation holds well for cobalt-layer thicknesses ranging from 0.02 to 1.0 pm, which covers almost all commercial grades. The K,, values reported by some oth
