Abstract: Abstract The inherent randomness of the fatigue issues on the orthotropic steel deck (OSD) requires a probabilistic investigation. With respect to the unfavorable crack on the rib-to-deck welded joint of OSD, the macro-crack initiation, namely… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijsolstr.2019.08.003
Abstract: Abstract During the fracture of concrete the formation of microcracks is a continuous process where new microcracks are formed in the vicinity of the macrocrack. As the fracture grows, these microcracks interact with the macrocrack… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The presence of microdefects near a macro crack tip can induce either amplification or shielding of macro crack propagation. In the present work, microdefects (micro cracks, inclusions, voids) in vicinity of a solitary macro… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tafmec.2018.04.003
Abstract: Abstract The solution of an infinite plane containing an arbitrarily located micro-crack and a kinked macro-crack is presented based on the distributed dislocation technique (DDT). The stress field, the plastic zone of the macro-crack tip… read more here.
