Abstract: An analytical procedure is presented for interpreting resistance histories from three piezoresistance gauges in a plane at a “point” to uniquely determine the normal stress at that point for nonuniaxial strain loading. The ...

Abstract: A continuum model for dynamic tensile cleavage fracture and fragmentation has been developed for detailed simulation of brittle fracture processes in elastoplastic materials. The model includes ...

Abstract: The phenomenology of fracture in A533B pressure vessel steel was established by examining fractured and partially fractured round bar tensile and Charpy specimens. In the upper shelf region ...
