Professor K R W Wallin is a recognised expert in the field of fracture mechanics. Indeed his work has provided a major input to the currently accepted ASTM Standard on the Master Curve Method , E1921.

The fracture surface associated with ductile fracture is shown in the photograph for a low carbon steel tested at high temperature. The top photograph shows the fracture surface at the center region ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

Engineers at Princeton University have developed a cement composite inspired by the inner lining of oyster and abalone shells ...

The Batelle two-curve method of fracture-arrest prediction for X70 and X80 high toughness steels requires correction factors based on the steel’s grade and toughness level. Oct. 20, 2008 13 min read ...
