Keyword-based linked data information retrieval is an easy choice for general-purpose users, but the implementation of such an approach is a challenge because mere keywords do not hold semantic information. Some studies have incorporated templates in an effort to bridge this gap, but most such approaches have proven ineffective because of inefficient template management. Because linked data can...

This paper proposes a reliable and cost-effective two-phase methodology to predict crack propagation life in generic two-dimensional (2D) structural components. First, the usually curved fatigue crack path and its stress-intensity factors are calculated at small crack increments in a specialized finite-element software, using automatic remeshing algorithms, special crack tip elements and approp...

Image processing technologies are proposed to quantify crack patterns. On the basis of the technologies, a software “Crack Image Analysis System” (CIAS) has been developed. An image of soil crack network is used as an example to illustrate the image processing technologies and the operations of the CIAS. The quantification of the crack image involves the following three steps: image segmentatio...

To better understand the relationship between the nucleation and growth of defects and the local stresses and phase changes that cause them, we need both imaging and stress mapping. Here, we explore how this can be achieved by bringing together synchrotron X-ray diffraction and tomographic imaging. Conventionally, these are undertaken on separate synchrotron beamlines; however, instruments capa...

Introduction . Keywords, reflecting the main content of article, play an extremely important role in search for scientific papers databases. Together with title and abstract, keywords provide primary information about study. Selecting extracting effective is a time-consuming process, so its optimization requires further studying. Purpose. The article aimed at acquainting authors journal methods...

Fatigue crack growth is examined in P/M 2124 aluminum alloys reinforced with SiC particles (SiCp) and whiskers (SiCw) over a wide spectrum of growth rates from 10 to 10 m per cycle. Effects of aging treatment, orientation of crack growth direction with respect to the rolling direction, mean stress (or stress ratio), and reinforcement volume percent on the fatigue crack growth threshold are inve...
