Sentence examples for distribution of flaws from inspiring English sources
The spatial distribution of flaws in a solid has a direct impact on the cumulative probability of failure due to brittle fracture.
Since the fracture strength of brittle materials depends on the size and distribution of flaws as well as the duration of loading, conventional design approaches are generally very conservative and large safety factors are often used.
In this paper, the roles of weave architecture and the distribution of flaws in the mechanics of tow lockup are investigated by Monte Carlo simulations using the so-called Binary Model.
The current work proposes a micromechanics-based model for compressive dynamic failure of brittle materials with circular pore flaws, which incorporates both the number density and the size distribution of flaws.
which results in different distribution of flaws, translucency degrees, and marginal and internal fit [1].
Results show that the distribution of flaw sizes is very important, particularly at moderate strain rate, since analyses based solely on the mean flaw size overpredict strength.
A qualitative micromechanical fracture mechanics model is presented that shows how a structure that is sensitive to the presence of a single crack or hole can be rendered flaw tolerant by the presence of an interacting distribution of such flaws.
The size and distribution of processing flaws was determined by small-angle neutron scattering.
Strength and reliability of WC-Co cemented carbides (hardmetals) are dependent on effective fracture toughness as well as on nature, size and distribution of processing flaws.
The stress distribution variance caused by size and shape effect is responsible for the different fire performances of glass façades, but the number and distribution of small flaws and defects in glazing are also important.
The aim of the present contribution that is an extension from existing models is to investigate the progressive damage of a 0o UD composite material subjected to combined shear-traction loading including a high number of interacting fibers, with a viscoelastic matrix, debondings and random distribution of fiber flaws.
