Cohesive-Length Scales for Damage and Toughening Mechanisms
While toughening and damage might seem to be two contradictory concepts for the mechanics of crack growth, they are actually the same phenomena perceived from two different vantage points. Similarly, the concepts of extrinsic and intrinsic toughening, defined in terms of whether a toughening mechanism occurs behind or ahead of a crack, depend on the definition of a crack tip that, in the absenc...
متن کاملNanoscale Deformation and Toughening Mechanisms of Nacre
We found direct evidence that a single-crystal-like aragonite platelet is essentially assembled with aragonite nanoparticles. The aragonite nanoparticles are readily oriented and assembled into pseudo-single-crystal aragonite platelets via screw dislocation and amorphous aggregation, which are two dominant mediating mechanisms between nanoparticles during biomineralization. The heat treatment b...
متن کاملToughening mechanisms in bioinspired multilayered materials.
Outstanding mechanical properties of biological multilayered materials are strongly influenced by nanoscale features in their structure. In this study, mechanical behaviour and toughening mechanisms of abalone nacre-inspired multilayered materials are explored. In nacre's structure, the organic matrix, pillars and the roughness of the aragonite platelets play important roles in its overall mech...
متن کاملToughening mechanisms in elastomer-modified epoxies
The role of matrix ductility on the toughenability and toughening mechanism of elastomermodified, diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA)-based epoxies is investigated. Matrix ductility is varied by using epoxide resins of varying epoxide monomer molecular weights. These epoxide resins are cured using 4,4' diaminodiphenyl sulphone (DDS) and, in some cases, modified with 10vol % carboxyl-termina...
متن کاملSuperposition of Cohesive Elements to Account for R-Curve Toughening in the Fracture of Composites
The relationships between a resistance curve (R-curve), the corresponding fracture process zone length, the shape of the traction/displacement softening law, and the propagation of fracture are examined in the context of the through-the-thickness fracture of composite laminates. A procedure that accounts for R-curve toughening mechanisms by superposing bilinear cohesive elements is proposed. Si...
