Effect of a Graded Layer on the Plastic Dissipation During Mixed-Mode Fatigue Crack Growth on Ductile Bimaterial Interfaces
… of a physically based mode-mix definition for bimaterial crack tips based on the total plastic dissipation developed by Daily. In addition, this dissertation provides comprehensive numerical results for the effects of an elastic/plastic mismatch, mode-mix, and graded layer height on the total …

Stress Intensity Factor Distributions in Bimaterial Systems - A Three Dimensional Photoelastic Investigation
… intensity behavior near to and coincident with bimaterial interfaces. Homogeneous, bonded homogeneous, and bonded bimaterial single edge-cracked tension specimens are utilized throughout the investigation for comparative purposes. The first series of tests involves machined cracks obliquely …

Investigative Application of the Intrinsic Extended Finite Element Method for the Computational Characterization of Composite Materials
… space in the vicinity of discontinuity interfaces, maintaining accuracy of the solution, while standard FE shape functions are used elsewhere. Comparison of the IXFEM in solving validation problems with strong and weak discontinuities against a standard finite element method (FEM) and …

Molecular tailoring of interfaces for thin film on substrate systems
… influenced by the adhesion of each of the bimaterial interfaces. During use, microelectronic components undergo thermo-mechanical cycling, which induces interfacial delaminations leading to failure of the overall device. The ability to tailor interfacial properties at the molecular level …
