Journal ArticleDOI

Use of scaling functions to determine mechanical properties of thin coatings from microindentation tests

TL;DR: In this article, the indentation of elastic-plastic coatings deposited on elastic substrates is studied and functional expressions that relate the load-indentation behaviour to coating and substrate material properties are derived using dimensional analysis in conjunction with finite element simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical and numerical modelling of creep crack growth in a carbon-manganese steel

TL;DR: In this article, a triaxiality dependent damage model is used to represent the multiaxial creep ductility of the material and an analytical model to predict steady state crack growth in terms of the fracture parameter C∗, designated the NSW-MOD model, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constraint in the failure assessment diagram approach for fracture assessment

TL;DR: In this article, a framework for including constraint effects in the failure assessment diagram approach for fracture assessment is presented, which is illustrated using both the elastic T-stress and the hydrostatic Q-stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fracture toughness of alumina-niobium interfaces : experiments and analyses

TL;DR: In this article, the mixed-mode interfacial fracture toughness of an alumina/niobium system was investigated and the interface was formed by solid-state bonding bulk Coor's AD-999 fine-grain alumina with a commercial purity niobium.
