Determination of Mode I Fracture Toughness of Cortical Human Bone Using the Dcb Test
The fracture behaviour of human cortical bone was analysed considering a miniaturized version of the Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) test. A specific data reduction scheme based on crack equivalent concept was used to obtain the resistance curves. The definition of the cohesive laws mimicking the fracture process was performed measuring the crack tip opening displacement by digital image correlati...
متن کاملThe double cantilever beam test applied to mode I fracture characterization of cortical bone tissue.
The primary objective of this work was to analyse the adequacy of the Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) test in determining fracture toughness under pure mode I loading of cortical bone tissue. A new data reduction scheme based on specimen compliance and the crack equivalent concept was used to overcome the difficulties inherent in crack monitoring during its growth. It provides a complete resistanc...
متن کاملMixed-mode fracture of human cortical bone.
Although the mode I (tensile opening) fracture toughness has been the focus of most fracture mechanics studies of human cortical bone, bones in vivo are invariably loaded multiaxially. Consequently, an understanding of mixed-mode fracture is necessary to determine whether a mode I fracture toughness test provides the appropriate information to accurately quantify fracture risk. In this study, w...
متن کاملSimulation of the Mode I fracture of concrete beam with cohesive models
Crack propagation modeling in quasi-brittle materials such as concrete is essential for improving the reliability and load-bearing capacity assessment. Crack propagation explains many failure characteristics of concrete structures using the fracture mechanics approach. This approach could better explain the softening behavior of concrete structures. A great effort has been made in developing nu...
متن کاملEffect of Rock Fracture Filling on Mode I and II Fracture Toughness
This paper focuses on some fracture toughness tests performed on the pre-cracked Brazilian specimens of rock-like materials. Also the effect of rock fracture filling on the fracture toughness was considered experimentally. Fracture toughness is a key parameter for studying the crack propagation and fragmentation processes in rock structures. Fracture mechanics is an applicable tool to improve ...
