Mechanical properties of materials and associated engineered components are controlled
by the material structure at various lengths and time scales. As materials are being further …

The initiation and propagation of short cracks are critical to the detailed understanding of the
failure mechanisms of engineering materials and structures. Therefore, for a safety critical …

Efforts to understand fatigue in materials generally rely on defining relationships between
the material response to fatigue loading and the evolving remaining material life portion …

This paper presents advances in the data management strategy applied to 4D multimodal
mechanics of material sample microstructures. Guidelines to build a data platform allowing …

This paper develops a Bayesian inference-based probabilistic crack nucleation model for
the Ni-based superalloy René 88DT under fatigue loading. A data-driven, machine learning …

The overarching aim of this paper is to explore the use of machine learning (ML) to predict
the microstructure-sensitive evolution of a three-dimensional (3D) crack surface in a …

A three dimensional simulation of short fatigue crack propagation in a polycrystalline
microstructure using a crystal plasticity finite element model is carried out. The experimental …

As computing power rapidly increases, quickly creating a representative and accurate
discretization of complex geometries arises as a major hurdle towards achieving a next …

The mechanical response of open-cell metallic foams depends strongly on their hierarchical
structure, which ranges from the grain scale, to the scale of individual struts, to the scale of …

The present work aims to study short fatigue crack initiation and propagation induced by
geometric microdefects. An empirical approach is used to evaluate the microstructural …
