The paper deals with certain similarities in results of standard tensile testing and small punch tests. The study is conducted using wrought aluminium alloy 2024-T351, wh [...]

Ductile fracture calibration needs to be done on the basis of reliable experimental testing. Reliable from the proportional loading path point of view, and the knowledge [...]

Present paper deals with numerical simulation of the small punch test of austenitic stainless steel, AISI 316L, which is often used in the nuclear industry. In order to m [...]

The ductile fracture in monotonic loading applies after extensive straining and may arise after various complex loading paths. The role of loading path has been studied b [...]

The present paper deals with a detonation modeling. Comparison of the blast simulation and following propagation of pressure waves within an electric switchboard containe [...]

Small Punch Test (SPT) is used to determine current values of basic mechanical properties from a tiny piece of material. This non-standard type of test is preferred if th [...]

Comparison of accumulated damage field of coupled and uncoupled ductile damage models together with history of variables used in calibration process is presented in this [...]

Seven ductile fracture criteria are applied to simulation of cold forward extrusion and their performance in prediction of chevron cracks is presented. The criteria are i [...]

The paper deals with material models calibration from experiment tests on cylindrical bar. There are calibrated four ductile damage criteria, which seem to be generally w [...]
