High-entropy alloys (HEAs) with face-centered cubic (FCC) phase such as CoCrFeMnNi or
CoCrNi generally exhibit ultra-high fracture toughness but relatively low strength. In contrast …

Bridging the gap between small-scale laboratory specimens and engineering full size
engineering structures plays a critical role in integrity assessment of reactor pressure …

Significant volume of literatures are already available in the published domain reporting the
mechanical and fracture behaviour of different pressure vessel steels under various testing …

Femtosecond lasers were used to cut ultra-sharp V-notches (ρ< 0.5 µm) on the yttrium-
stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP). The actual fracture toughness of Y-TZP …

The cyclic stress–strain response and the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of 20MnMoNi55
pressure vessel steel were studied. Tensile strength and LCF properties were examined at …

The main coolant piping material Z3CN20. 09 M was heat treated at 400° C for 18,000 h and
then the fracture behavior has been studied. To understand the effect of in-plane constraint …

In the integrity assessment of natural gas pipelines, it is critical to determine the impacts of
variable wall thickness and misalignment on the fracture of welded joints. In this study …

Fracture toughness is an important material property to assess the critical load for structural
integrity of reactor pressure vessel steel. In this paper, master curve method proposed by …

Uniaxial ratchetting characteristics of 20MnMoNi55 steel at room temperature were studied
experimentally. The effects of stress amplitude and mean stress on the ratchetting behavior …

Theoretical and experimental study of the mechanical behavior of structures under load
Analysis of Engineering Structures and Material Behavior is a textbook covering introductory …
