Abstract: At high stress levels the creep strain rate for many materials varies as the exponential of stress while at low stresses it varies as stress to some power. An analysis is presented for a ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on aspects of fracture mechanics of interface cracks in anisotropic bimaterials. In this case there is a coupling of all three crack-tip fracture modes in the natural ...

Abstract: A cohesive zone model of the Dugdale-Barenblatt type is used to investigate crack growth under small-scale-creep/damage conditions. The material inside the cohesive zone is described by a power-law ...
