Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal character of fracture surfaces of metals
TL;DR: In this article, a new method, slit island analysis, is introduced to estimate the fractal dimension, D. The estimate is shown to agree with the value obtained by fracture profile analysis, a spectral method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Auger and photoelectron line energy relationships in aluminum–oxygen and silicon–oxygen compounds
TL;DR: In this article, the location of points on the plots can be understood on the basis of polarizability of the environment (on the Auger parameter grid of lines, slope +1) and on the factors contributing to the energy of the final state ion in the auger transition (a grid of line, slope −1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Analysis of Brittle Fracture Surfaces Using Fractal Geometry
TL;DR: Fractal geometry is a non-Euclidean geometry which has been developed to analyze irregular or fractional shapes In as mentioned in this paper, fracture in ceramic materials is analyzed as a fractal process.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of heat treatment on microstructure and cryogenic fracture properties in 5Ni and 9Ni steel
J. R. Strife,D. E. Passoja +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was concluded that the formation of thermally stable retained austenite is beneficial to the fracture toughness of Ni steels at 77 K as a result of Austenite gettering carbon from the matrix during tempering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal dimension as a characterization of free volume created during fracture in brittle materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between quantitative fractography and fracture mechanics is first presented to describe the fracture of primary bonds as a fractal process, and then a series of bond reconfigurations along the crack front, due to thermal vibrations and lowest energy configurations, develop into the mirror-mist-hackle and crack branching patterns often observed.
