<abstract><p>This contribution presents a concept to dynamic fracture with continuum-kinematics-based peridynamics. Continuum-kinematics-based peridynamics is geometrically exact formulation of peridynamics, which adds surface- or volume-based interactions the classical peridynamic bonds, thus capturing finite deformation kinematics correctly. The surfaces and volumes considered for...

INTRODUCTION Sustaining an intracapsular fracture in a hip which was previously fixed with dynamic hip screw for extracapsular fracture, is a very rarely reported occurrence. We present one such case in order to discuss the presentation and management of this fracture. We have also reviewed the literature and pooled the previously reported cases to look at potential cause & risk factors. CASE...

We argue that fracture surfaces may exhibit anomalous dynamic scaling properties akin to what occurs in some models of kinetic roughening. We determine the complete scaling behavior of the local fluctuations of a brittle fracture in a granite block from experimental data. We obtain a global roughness exponent x51.2 which differs from the local one, x loc50.79. Implications on fracture physics a...

Elbow dislocation with ipsilateral diaphyseal fracture of both radius and ulna is a rare injury. However, elbow dislocation with either radius or ulnar diaphyseal fracture is commonly reported. We report an uncommon injury of a 16 years old male who had his elbow dislocation with ipsilateral both bones forearm fractures. Elbow dislocation was reduced and fracture both bones were fixed with dyna...

abstract: in this paper, the results of experimental and numerical simulation of low velocity impact process have been carried out to investigate energy absorption of composite sandwich panels with 3d woven fabrics of glass fibers and epoxy resin. for this purpose, diagrams of force-displacement of the quasi-static and quasi-dynamic impact tests were studied. for the finite element simulation, ...
