FRACTURE MODE-MIXITY IN SYMETRICAL BEAM SPECIMENS: FPZ LENGTH INFLUENCE
Mixed-mode fracture in delamination test utilizing double cantilever specimens loaded with bending moments is investigated in the paper. FEM simulations are performed using cohesive zone model where different configurations of test loadings and two critical fracture energy values, ie. two fracture process zone lengths, are considered. Fracture ener...

MAINTENANCE OF SYSTEM FOR ABRASIVE WATERJET CUTTING
Abrasive waterjet cutting process is accepted effective technology for cutting various materials. Cutting process is based on kinetic energy of waterjet and abrasive particles which are used for material removal in the cutting zone. Erosional contact between abrasive particles and cutting components leads to damage in abrasive waterjet cutting syst...
