Characterization of Stable Delamination Growth in Fiber-reinforced Polymers using Analytical and Numerical approaches
DownloadSpring 2013
A new test method, named internal-notched-flexure (INF) test, has recently been proposed to quantify mode II interlaminar fracture toughness of fibre composites. Previous investigation has shown that unlike any of the existing test methods, the INF test generates unconditionally stable...

The central Andes (18° - 26°S) is an active Cordilleran orogen, formed through the subduction of the Nazca oceanic plate beneath the South American continent. Despite significant tectonic crustal shortening and thickening (60 -70 km), deep seismic imaging indicates a thin to absent mantle...

Borehole breakouts are zones of enlargements of the wellbore cross section that form as a result of rock failure at the wellbore wall during drilling. The analysis of borehole breakout is essential in addressing wellbore stability, well completion, and sand production problems. This research...
