The fabrication of large components using a high deposition rate, near-net shape process
like Wire+ Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) is a promising option for many industries, due …

Fracture toughness testing using clamped single edge notched tension (SENT) specimens
has been receiving broad attention in the oil and gas industry for direct measurement of low …

Purpose The key purpose of conducting this review is to identify the issues that affect the
structural integrity of pipeline structures. Heat affected zone (HAZ) has been identified as the …

The microstructures, mechanical properties and fracture toughness of the materials in
different locations of the welded joint of the X80 pipeline steel were studied at room …

This paper proposes a digital image correlation (DIC) based method to measure the fracture
resistance curve and quantify the reversed loading effects in middle tension, M (T) …

Cortical bone fracture mechanics which quantifies the tissue's resistance to fracture is widely
regarded as important to finding key determinants of bone fragility and fracture. Currently …

In the study, a methodology is proposed based on the SENT experiments and crack-tip
constraint theory to determine the tensile strain capacity of a flawed pipe welded girth …

In the present paper, an experimental program was carried out to develop JR curves using
clamped single edge notched tension (SENT) specimens. A wide range of geometrical …

Turbine blades in aviation engines commonly feature a nickel-based superalloy structure
integrated with film cooling holes to enhance inlet gas temperature. However, the presence …

Single-edge notched tension (SENT) testing has gained attention for the characterization of
crack growth resistance in scenarios of low crack tip constraint conditions. One challenge of …
