  2. Stress corrosion cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_corrosion_cracking

    Stress corrosion cracking caused by tension developed in an unsuitably welded reinforcement collar A close-up of the surface of a steel pipeline showing stress corrosion cracking (two clusters of small black lines) revealed by magnetic particle inspection. Cracks which would normally have been invisible are detectable due to the magnetic ...

  3. Pavers (flooring) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavers_(flooring)

    A concrete sand (specifically ASTM C33) bedding is preferable for building driveways with tighter joints (i.e., thinner cracks) because the sand is small enough to be raised up into the cracks when the pavers are compacted. This raised concrete sand helps lock the pavers in place so that they can handle more weight. [9] [10]

  4. Environmental stress cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_stress_cracking

    Environmental Stress Cracking (ESC) is one of the most common causes of unexpected brittle failure of thermoplastic (especially amorphous) polymers known at present. According to ASTM D883, stress cracking is defined as "an external or internal crack in a plastic caused by tensile stresses less than its short-term mechanical strength".

    The constant is the yield stress in pure shear, since under this stress state the value of is zero. In plane stress the modified von Mises criterion is an ellipse on the principal axis space, but differently from the standard criterion it is shifted with respect to the origin, due to the different behavior of the polymeric materials depending ...

  6. Fracture in polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_in_polymers

    Failure in polymer components can occur at relatively low stress levels, far below the tensile strength because of four major reasons: long term stress or creep rupture, cyclic stresses or fatigue, the presence of structural flaws and stress-cracking agents. Formations of submicroscopic cracks in polymers under load have been studied by x ray ...

  7. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

    If stress is higher than the particles adhesion a crack will form/propagate. Fiber ends are areas where cracks initiate most often due to the high stress on fiber ends with lower adhesion. Talc is a filler that can be used to increase fatigue resistance.

  8. Soil stabilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_stabilization

    Confinement in geogrids is by means of interlock between the aggregate and grid (and tensioned membrane), and in geocells, by cell wall confinement (hoop) stress on the aggregate. [ 2 ] Traditionally and widely accepted types of soil stabilization techniques use products such as bitumen emulsions which can be used as binding agents for ...

  9. Dilatancy (granular material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatancy_(granular_material)

    Dilatancy of a sample of dense sand in simple shear. The phenomenon of dilatancy can be observed in a drained simple shear test on a sample of dense sand. In the initial stage of deformation, the volumetric strain decreases as the shear strain increases. But as the stress approaches its peak value, the volumetric strain starts to increase.
