Modeling and Analysis of Crack Initiation in a Cylindrical Specimen
Abstract: In an engineering component subjected to variable loading/cyclic stressing, the stress and stress state, particularly the plastic strain and the triaxiality, play an important role in determining its life. Ductile materials predominantly fail by void growth, and crack initiation in ductile material can be associated with a specified volume of voids. Estimation of this crack initiation life and the remaining life through analytical modeling and comparing it through experimental testing …

EXPLORING URBAN VOIDS: STUDYING URBAN REGENERATION
Abstract: The rapid urbanization of a city is beneficial for its economic and cultural growth, but it stems from a growing concern over the effects of urbanization on the environment, human health, and well-being. This rapid urbanization results in the development in the formation of voids in the urban fabric. These voids create the possibility of places in the city that are overlooked and underutilized during the development of the city. …

MODELING EARLY COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE PARTIALLY REPLACED WITH HETEROGENEOUS PALM KERNEL SHELL INFLUENCED BY VOID RATIO AND PERMEABILITY
Abstract: The study monitored the partial replacement of palm kernel shell as an aggregate for concrete production, this was carried out using modelling and simulation techniques, such condition were applied to determine other parameters that their significance impact may have not determined its growth rates in terms of compressive strength. The study observed the void and permeability of the material, including heterogeneity, to influence the increase and decrease of compressive growth …

Enhancing Delamination Resistance in CFRP Composites through surface Functionalization of Woven carbon Fiber by CuO Nanostructures
Abstract: In order to produce a nanostructured interphase that improves the interfacial interaction with an epoxy resin matrix, copper oxide (CuO) nanostructures were hydrothermally formed onto woven carbon fibers (WCF). Hexagonal CuO nanorods were created using a two-step, seed-assisted solvothermal technique on plain woven carbon fiber. This study investigates the effects of surface modification of carbon fibers by the formation of CuO nanostructures using a hydrothermal technique on the mechanical properties …

Hydrothermal modification of carbon fiber fabrics by ZnO nanorods for mechanical strengthening of CFRP laminates
Abstract: Hexagonal ZnO nanorods were produced on plain woven carbon fiber using a two-step seed-assisted hydrothermal procedure. By varying the process parameters such as molar concentrations, number of seeding cycles, and growth duration at a controlled growth temperature of 90 °C, it is feasible to produce ZnO nanostructures with a range of morphologies, including nanowires, hexagonal nanorods, and nanoflowers. The developed morphologies were examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy and …
