Book High Pressure Shock Compression of Solids II

Download or read book High Pressure Shock Compression of Solids II written by Lee Davison and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume concerns the fracture and fragmentation of solid materials that occurs when they are subjected to extremes of stress applied at the highest possible rates. The plan for the volume is to address experimental, theoretical, and com putational aspects of high-rate dynamic fracture and fragmentation, with emphasis on recent work. We begin with several chapters in which the emphasis falls on experimental methods and observations. These chapters address both macroscopic responses and the microscopic cause of these re sponses. This is followed by several chapters emphasizing modeling-the physical explanation and mathematical representation of the observations. Some of the models are deterministic, while others focus on the stochastic aspects of the observations. Often, the ov\!rall objective of investigation of dynamic fracture and fragmentation phenomena is provision of a means for predicting the entire course of an event that begins with a stimulus such as an impact and proceeds through a complicated deformation and fracture pro cess that results in disintegration of the body and formation of a rapidly expanding cloud of debris fragments. Analysis of this event usually involves development of a continuum theory and computer code that captures the experimental observations by incorporating models of the important pheno mena into a comprehensive description of the deformation and fracture pro cess. It is to this task that the work of the last few chapters is devoted.

Book Dynamic Fracture Analysis of HSST Crack Run arrest Experiments with Nonisothermal Wide Plates

Download or read book Dynamic Fracture Analysis of HSST Crack Run arrest Experiments with Nonisothermal Wide Plates written by and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic fracture analysis results from Heavy-Section Steel Technology (HSST) wide-plate crack-arrest tests are summarized. These tests relate to assessing nuclear reactor pressure vessel integrity under pressurized-thermal-shock (PTS) conditions. Computed results for five tests are compared with measurements of strain versus time, crack propagation speed, and the arrest location. Crack arrest toughness values determined by various analytical methods are compiled for test temperatures that range from mid-transition into the Charpy upper-shelf region for the test material.

Book Comparison of Analysis and Experimental Data for a Unique Crack Arrest Specimen

Download or read book Comparison of Analysis and Experimental Data for a Unique Crack Arrest Specimen written by DJ. Ayres and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new fracture test specimen has been developed to study crack extension and arrest in nuclear reactor vessel steels subjected to stress-intensity factor and toughness gradients similar to those in postulated pressurized thermal shock situations. A summary of the results of all the tests performed is presented to illustrate the range of crack arrest and crack reinitiation conditions observed. One test of this specimen with the corresponding stress analysis is described in detail. During this test the crack initiated, extended, arrested, reinitiated, extended again, and reached a final arrest. Comparison of detailed dynamic elastic-plastic finite-element analyses and dynamic strain and displacement measurements of the crack extension, arrest, and reinitiation events, combined with topographic analysis of the fracture surfaces, has led to a new understanding of the crack extension and arrest process. The results of the tests demonstrate crack arrest in a rising stress-intensity field at near-upper-shelf temperature conditions and show that the toughness required for arrest is lower than would be predicted by the analysis procedures usually employed for pressurized thermal shock evaluations.

Book Computational Methods for Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Pressurized thermal shock Experiments

Download or read book Computational Methods for Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Pressurized thermal shock Experiments written by and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extensive computational analyses are required to determine material parameters and optimum pressure-temperature transients compatible with proposed pressurized-thermal-shock (PTS) test scenarios and with the capabilities of the PTS test facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Computational economy has led to the application of techniques suitable for parametric studies involving the analysis of a large number of transients. These techniques, which include analysis capability for two- and three-dimensional (2-D and 3-D) superposition, inelastic ligament stability, and upper-shelf arrest, have been incorporated into the OCA/USA computer program. Features of the OCA/USA program are discussed, including applications to the PTS test configuration.

Book Whither Dynamic Fracture Mechanics

Download or read book Whither Dynamic Fracture Mechanics written by M. F. Kanninen and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experimental basis for the necessity of a dynamic characterization of crack run/arrest events is reviewed. Current anomalies in the use of linear elastodynamic treatments--apparent geometry and load rate dependence of the dynamic fracture toughness property--are discussed. A review of concurrent work in plastic fracture mechanics is given as a possible basis for circumventing these anomalies. (Author).
