Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modeling of carbon/carbon composites with nanotextured matrix and 3D pores of irregular shapes
Borys Drach,Igor Tsukrov,Todd S. Gross,Stefan Dietrich,Kay André Weidenmann,Romana Piat,Thomas Böhlke +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multiscale modeling approach is utilized to evaluate the contribution of irregularly shaped three-dimensional pores to the overall elastic properties of carbon/carbon composites, assuming a Fisher distribution of orientations of graphene planes with respect to the pyrolytic carbon deposition direction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mode I stress intensity factors induced by fracture surface roughness under pure mode III loading: Application to the effect of loading modes on stress corrosion crack growth
Todd S. Gross,D.A. Mendelsohn +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a model to estimate the reduction of effective crack tip Mode III stress intensity factors by frictional and asperity interaction of an idealized fracture surface is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Martensite Formation in Conventional and Isothermal Tension of 304 Austenitic Stainless Steel Measured by X-ray Diffraction
TL;DR: The temperature above which neither stress nor plastic strain can cause austenite to transform to martensite was determined for 304 austenitic stainless steel by X-ray diffraction measurements on specimens that were previously subjected to isothermal tension tests as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite Element Modeling to Predict Cure-Induced Microcracking in Three-Dimensional Woven Composites
Igor Tsukrov,Harun H. Bayraktar,Michael Giovinazzo,Jon Goering,Todd S. Gross,Monica Fruscello,Lars Martinsson +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, realistic finite element models of 3D woven composites are constructed utilizing micro-scale numerical modeling to accurately represent the geometry of as-woven textile fabrics and the models are used to predict micro-cracking of carbon fiber / epoxy composites during resin curing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tension-compression anisotropy of in-plane elastic modulus for pyrolytic carbon
Todd S. Gross,Khanh H. Nguyen,Michael Buck,Nikolay Timoshchuk,Igor Tsukrov,Boris Reznik,Romana Piat,Thomas Böhlke +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used standard strain gage methods to measure the anisotropic elastic constants for a sample of pyrolytic carbon and found that the in-plane elastic modulus exhibits significant tension-compression anisotropy −30.2
