Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Mixed-mode Fracture Behavior of Basal Textured Magnesium Alloys
Magnesium alloys are finding tremendous applications in automobile and aerospace industries owing to their low density, high specific strength, good machinability and damping characteristics. However, their structural ... -
On a Few Non-Classical Perspectives in Solid Mechanics
Postulates in solid mechanics can be broadly classified into three groups describing the geometry of a configuration, mechanical equilibrium and thermodynamics of the deformation process. The geometry defined on a configuration ... -
Studies on the Mechanisms of Fracture, Evolution of Microcracks and Size Effect in Concrete through Acoustic Emission Analysis
The mechanics of fracture evolution in heterogeneous material like concrete is a distinct and complex phenomenon and still stands as an open problem after decades of research. A cluster of multi-scale cracks ahead of the ...
