A three-dimensional finite element model of a compact tension specimen consisting of a Ti-6Al-4V matrix reinforced with unidirectional, continuous SiC fibres under monotonic and cyclic loading has been developed. This has enabled true Coulomb frictio

In this study, the influence of thermal expansion mismatch, fibre debonding, interface friction and interface degradation on crack-tip shielding due to crack face bridging is investigated for fatigue of a Ti–6–4 matrix reinforced with unidirectio

A multi-scale finite-element (FE) model of a fatigue specimen for an intermetallic matrix/platelet composite is developed to investigate the crack growth micromechanisms and interactions between the matrix, platelets and interfaces in the crack-tip m

A model of ductile spallation fracture is developed from a dynamic void-growth model which takes full account of the effects of material inertia and strain-rate sensitivity on void-growth rates under shock-loading conditions. The void-growth model is

A two-dimensional plane strain model of void growth and coalescence in a rigid/plastic solid, containing void sizes and spacings which can be highly non-uniform, is developed to investigate the effects of non-uniform distributions of void-nucleating

A nucleation-controlled model for the dynamic fracture-toughness KId of materials, with relatively high volume-fractions of sub-micron sized second-phase particles, is developed from the Goods and Brown model of microvoid nucleation. The model can be

Upper-bound methods are used to obtain close approximations to the constraint factor in a three-dimensional model of the intervoid matrix at incipient plastic limit-load failure. This is the condition where homogeneous deformation can no longer conti

A basic understanding of the mechanism of fatigue-crack nucleation in a high-strength steel, under true high-cycle conditions, is developed from microstructural observations of rotating-bending fatigue specimens and theoretical results for the stress

The shapes of the entrance and exit slip-lines to the plastic flow zones in a metal-cutting process are obtained by strain etching the polished section of a partly formed chip, which was produced in an incremental cutting operation. The results are c

The mechanics of ductile fracture in metals is treated as a problem of the stability of a rigid non-hardening plastic solid containing a regular distribution of microvoids. A sufficient condition for the stability of incompressible plasticity, in the
