Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization by X-ray computed tomography of decohesion, porosity growth and coalescence in model metal matrix composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the growth phase, measured both locally (on isolated particles) and globally (in the entire block) was compared with the Rice and Tracey prediction which was shown to overestimate the global prediction and to give a reasonable agreement of the local growth rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the morphology of cellular ceramics by 3D image processing of X-ray tomography
TL;DR: In this article, the average value of these granulometry measurements was compared to optical and electron microscopy measurements, and the thickness distribution of both pores and ceramics was also retrieved using three-dimensional (3D) mathematical morphological operation on the images.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the competition between particle fracture and particle decohesion in metal matrix composites
TL;DR: A simple model for describing the competition between interface decohesion and particle cracking as the elementary damage nucleation mechanisms in heterogeneous materials is proposed in this paper, which allows to rationalize the influence of the plastic behaviour of the ductile matrix and of the interfacial strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damage initiation in model metallic materials: X-ray tomography and modelling
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of matrix elastoplastic properties and reinforcement volume fraction on damage initiation in model heterogeneous metals have been studied using in situ tensile tests coupled with high resolution X-ray tomography.

TL;DR: In this article, three dimensional X-ray tomographic images of intergranular stress corrosion crack nucleation and growth in sensitised austenitic stainless steel provide evidence for the development of crack bridging ligaments, caused by the resistance of non-sensitised special grain boundaries.
