A Finite Element Investigation Of Brittle Fracture During Spherical Nanoindentation Of Thin Hard Films
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-12-14)Hard ceramic films of micrometric thickness deposited on a soft metallic substrate have ushered in a new era in the fabrication of structural, tribological, microelectronic and optical components. The mechanical performance ... -
Numerical Studies on Plastic Deformation, Notch Sensitivity and Fracture Behavior of Bulk Metallic Glasses and Composites
Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) exhibit attractive properties such as high strength and resilience. However, they display negligible tensile ductility due to catastrophic crack propagation inside a dominant shear band (SB). ...
