Multi-purpose fatigue sensor. Part 2. Physical backgrounds for damages accumulation and parameters of their assessment
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 38
Abstract
The characteristic informative parameters for defect detection to be used in fatigue sensors have been established. Their development is interpreted in terms of scale levels of deformation and fracture. Damage accumulation of the sensor’s surface tends to exhibit the self-organization nature. It is accompanied by formation of "folded" strain-induced relief on the surface. The mechanisms of damage accumulation under cyclic deformation were analyzed with the use of the multiscale approach

Structural mechanisms of formation of adiabatic shear bands
The paper focuses on the experimental and theoretical study of plastic deformation instability and localization in materials subjected to dynamic loading and high-velocity perforation. We investigate the behavior...
Experimental estimation of the heat energy dissipated in a volume surrounding the tip of a fatigue crack
Fatigue crack initiation and propagation involve plastic strains that require some work to be done on the material. Most of this irreversible energy is dissipated as heat and consequently the material temperature&...
Fatigue crack paths under the influence of changes in stiffness
An important topic of the Collaborative Research Centre TRR 30 of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) is the crack growth behaviour in graded materials. In addition, the growth of cracks in the neighbou...
Effect of crack propagation on crack tip fields
Crack closure influences fatigue crack growth rate and must be included in the design of components. Plasticity induced crack closure is intimately linked with the crack tip plastic deformation, which becomes resid...
Case studies in numerical simulation of crack trajectories in brittle materials
Statistical Fracture Mechanics, formalism of few natural ideas is applied to simulation of crack trajectories in brittle material. The “diffusion approximation” of the crack diffusion model represents crack traject...
