A special subroutine was introduced while modeling the push-out test to control interfacial failure process. In addition, the residual stresses, Poisson ratio and friction stresses were all considered in the finite element analysis and the interface debonding was described as a continuous process. The results show that the interfacial fracture toughness of SiC/Timetal-834 is about 50 J/m2. Moreover, the effects of various parameters on the interfacial fracture toughness and the variations of energy release rates at both ends of the specimen were analyzed in detail.展开更多

The compact tension (CT) specimen was employed to conduct mode-I fracture test using special loading fixtures as per ASTM standards. Fracture toughness was determined experimentally for along and across the fiber orientation of the specimen. Results indicated that the cracked specimens are tougher along the fiber orientations as compared with across the fiber orientations. A similar fracture test was simulated using finite element analysis software ANSYS. Critical stress intensity factor (K) was calculated at fracture/failure using displacement extrapolation method, for both along and across the fiber orientations. The fractured surfaces of the glasscarbon epoxy composite under mode-I loading condition was examined by electron microscope.展开更多

On the basis of the tests, the stress-strain fields near the crack tip of the compactspecimens are analyzed by three-dimensional finite element model. The test results and finiteelement analysis results show that, the fracture toughness of welds and base metal of 16Mn steelincreases with the increment of loading rate. Compared with 16Mn steel, Q235B steel is moresensitive to dynamic loading. The fracture toughness of welds of Q235B is comparatively low understatic loading and dynamic loading at room temperature. Compared with the static loading, thefracture toughness of Q235B parent metal under dynamic loading decreases by about four times.Therefore, it can be concluded that compared with 16Mn steel, the earthquake resistances of weld andparent metal of Q235B are rather poor.展开更多
