Openings are available for PhD. students in the Nanomechanical MUltiphysicals lab at UT-Dallas, with a start date of August 2018. Outstanding candidates may be considered for starting in January 2018.

The research topics are experimental in nature, and cover the areas of nanomechanics, electrical-mechanical coupling in nanostructures, and in-situ electron microscopy. Previous research experience, specially in mechanics, and experimental skills are highly desirable. For more details about our research please visit: www.utdallas.edu/nml

Discussion of fracture paper #17 - What is the second most important quantity at fracture?

Submitted by ESIS on

No doubt the energy release rate comes first. What comes next is proposed in a recently published study that describes a method based on a new constraint parameter Ap. The paper is:

Fracture assessment based on unified constraint parameter for pressurized pipes with circumferential surface cracks, M.Y. Mu, G.Z. Wang, F.Z. Xuan, S.T. Tu, Engineering Fracture Mechanics 175 (2017), 201–218
