Journal ArticleDOI
Why do cracks avoid each other
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the stability of straight crack paths and showed that the straight crack path is unstable, i.e. that tip to tip coalescence will not take place.
Journal ArticleDOI
When does a crack grow under mode II conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, conditions that favour mode I or mode II growth are examined, and it is shown that a high confining pressure promotes mode I growth and a low ratio between the critical stress intensity factors of modes II and I.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of the T-stress on the directional stability of cracks
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that directional stability generally depends on body and load geometry as well as on material parameters, whereas the sign of the T-stress is totally irrelevant in most cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of substrate bias voltage on the microhardness, adhesive strength, friction coefficient, and wear rate of AIP Cr2O3 films deposited on AISI 304 stainless steel substrates was investigated systematically.
