The aim of the present work is to identify an environmentally clean coating process that will present lower influence in the Ti–6Al–4V fatigue strength. Axial fatigue tests of Ti–6Al–4V alloy TiN, CrN and WC:H (tungsten containing... more
Tensile properties and fatigue crack propagation behavior of a 2195-T8 Al-Li alloy were investigated at different stress ratios, with particular emphasis on their dependence on specimen orientation. Specimens with orientations of 0, 15,... more
Linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) integrated with the interference of fracture surface asperities has been formulated. The asperities are considered to simulate the influence of the microstructures and possibly oxide debris. The... more
The fracture of bone is a health concern of increasing significance as the population ages. It is therefore of importance to understand the mechanics and mechanisms of how bone fails, both from a perspective of outright (catastrophic)... more
Two-dimensional modeling to compute plastic zone in front of a crack in a compact tension specimen of a multiphase material was published previously. This paper is the continuation of it, using the same concept, but in three dimensions.... more
