In this study, the ductile fracture of the alloy metal is analyzed. First, the key factors affecting
the initiation of ductile fracture are investigated. Then, a new uncoupled ductile fracture …

As one of the most commonly used aerospace aluminum alloys, 2024-T351 aluminum alloy
plates are frequently exposed to impact loadings. In this study, the ballistic resistance of 2, 4 …

This study presents an experimental and numerical investigation of block shear strength of
high strength steel (HSS) bolted connections under double shear. A total of 16 HSS (grades …

To understand comprehensively the relationship between material ductility and stress state,
the new shear, shear-compression, and shear-tension specimens were specially designed …

This study pays attention to the ductile fracture of X80 pipeline steel using both experimental
and numerical approaches. First, nineteen experimental cases are tested, consisting of the …

In this paper, the effect of Lode angle on the fracture strain of steels is discussed based on
experimental evidence. To isolate the effect of the Lode angle, fracture strains …

The majority of current finite element (FE) simulations on shear plugging adopted Lode
independent fracture criteria, and the value of utilizing a Lode dependent fracture criterion in …

In order to accurately predict the damage and fracture behaviors of a 7075 aluminum alloy
during cryogenic stamping, a nonlinear damage model taking into account stress triaxiality …

Recent investigations have shown that the ductility of a metal may depend on not only the
stress triaxiality but also the Lode parameter, especially in the relatively low stress triaxiality …

This study aims to investigate the influence of stress triaxiality and cooling methods on post-
fire mechanical behavior of ASTM A36 steels. To this end, ASTM A36 notched steel …
