Abstract: The present paper presents results of numerical simulation for statistical evaluation of stress and strain at elevated temperature from view point of crystal plasticity level by employing a new ...

Abstract: Several plasticity phenomena display a size effect where the smaller the size is the stronger its response. This effect relates to the plastic gradients, appearing in plastically inhomogeneous ...

Abstract: The accurate evaluation scheme for creep-fatigue strength is one of the continuing main issues for elevated temperature design; particularly, the three-dimensional structure having stress concentration ...

Abstract: Plastic strain of structures having stress concentration is estimated by using the simplified method or the finite element elastic solutions. As the simplified methods used in codes and standards, ...

Abstract: Crack initiation and propagation process of fatigue test in semicircular notched plates at elevated temperature were conducted under strain-controlled condition in order to study the crack ...
