On the scale effect in the thin layer delamination problem
نویسنده
چکیده
Influence of layer thickness on the stress distribution in the vicinity of a crack tip is examined, taking into account the fact that the conventional stress intensity factor concept becomes invalid if the thickness of the layer is not much more than the size of the fracture process zone. An eigen-problem is considered which is characterized by two asymptotes. The first is a near one; it is formed in a small vicinity of the crack tip in the layer thickness scale. The second asymptote is a far one in the same scale. The regions of validity of these asymptotes are determined and shown to depend upon layer thickness, material parameters and crack tip speed. The complete stress distribution in front of the crack is obtained, as well. Some conclusions are made concerning the stress distribution and energy release rate for the general problem. Mode III crack propagation is considered in detail.

Delamination of Compressed Thin Layers at Corners
An analysis of delamination for a thin elastic film, attached to a substrate a corner, is carried out. The film is in compression and the analysis is performed by combining results from fracture mechanics and the theory of thin shells. The results show a very strong dependency of the angle of the corner. In contrast with earlier results for delamination on a flat substrate, the present problem ...
متن کاملInfluence of Interfacial Delamination on Channel Cracking of Elastic Thin Films
Channeling cracks in brittle thin films have been observed to be a key reliability issue for advanced interconnects and other integrated structures. Most theoretical studies to date have assumed no delamination at the interface, while experiments have observed channel cracks both with and without interfacial delamination. This paper analyzes the effect of interfacial delamination on the fractur...

In this study rhubarb stem slices were dried as single layers with thickness of 3 mm in the inlet air temperature range of 50-70 and air velocity of 1 ± 0.2 m/s in a laboratory scale cabinet dryer. The effect of drying air temperature on the drying characteristics was determined and the relationship between the drying parameters with temperature and moisture content was examined. Moisture tran...
متن کاملInfluence of Sodium Tripolyphosphate Concentration on Characteristics and Performance of Polyamide Thin Layer Membrane in Cu (II) Removal
In this work, the effect of presence of the sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), as an inorganic salt, on improving the performance of polyamide (PA) thin layer membranes has been studied. Characterization analyses confirmed the presence of the salt on the whole surface structure of the thin layer. Different salt loadings resulted in different fluxes and Cu (II) rejections. The thin layer containing...
متن کاملCompressive Behavior of a Glass/Epoxy Composite Laminates with Single Delamination
The buckling and postbuckling behaviors of a composite beam with single delamination are investigated. A three-dimensional finite element model using the commercial code ANSYS is employed for this purpose. The finite elements analyses have been performed using a linear buckling model based on the solution of the eigenvalues problem, and a non-linear one based on an incremental-iterative method....
متن کاملEffect of NiTi Addition on the Wear Resistance of YSZ Coatings
In this study, small fraction of NiTi (5 wt%) was added to Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) top coat to improve it sliding wear resistance. The measurement of width of wear tracks after wear tests under a 15 N load for 100 m sliding distances showed that the width of wear track in NiTi-YSZ coating is shorter than that in YSZ coating which depicts the higher wear resistance of NiTi-YSZ coa...
