Nowadays, due to high ratio of strength to weight, composite cylindrical shells are extensively used in a great variety of different industrial applications and under different cases of loads. In this study, the buckling of composite cylindrical shells was examined under uniform external pressure.

Channeling cracks in brittle thin films have been observed to be a key reliability issue for advanced interconnects and other integrated structures. Most theoretical studies to date have assumed no delamination at the interface, while experiments have observed channel cracks both with and without interfacial delamination. This paper analyzes the effect of interfacial delamination on the fractur...

PURPOSE The purposes of this study were (1) to examine whether posterior delamination is hidden to the most commonly used posterior viewing portal compared with differential rotator cuff portals and (2) to observe posterior delamination patterns so that a treatment-based classification system may be proposed. METHODS One-hundred thirty consecutive patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff...

The use of fiber reinforced plastics has increased in the last decades due to their unique properties. Advantages of their use are related with low weight, high strength and stiffness. Drilling of composite plates can be carried out in conventional machinery with some adaptations. However, the presence of typical defects like delamination can affect mechanical properties of produced parts. In t...

BACKGROUND Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), it is a clinical syndrome relatively recently recognized as source of hip mechanic pain and early osteoarthritis. Two types of FAI have been described, based on the bone morphology and pattern of chondral and labral damage; the cam type is frequently associated with chondral delamination; and the pincer type is associated with a contre-coup injury ...

Delamination is an important concern in the context of structural behaviour of laminated composite materials. It is known that delamination can diminish the stiffness and the strength of the material and promote structural failure. Delamination onset and growth is governed by interlaminar fracture toughness of the material. Delamination propagation is frequently dominated by mode II fracture; c...

In the present work, the interaction of Rayleigh waves with a delamination in a fiber reinforced composite plate was analyzed. Rayleigh waves, upon interacting with delamination mode, convert into Lamb waves in the delamination zone. These guided Lamb modes have the capability to mode convert back into Rayleigh modes when they interact with the edge of the delamination. A unidirectional glass/e...

Drilling-induced delamination often occurs both at the entrance and the exit of the workpiece during drilling of composite material. Investigators have studied analytically and experimentally that delamination in drilling can be correlated to the thrust force of the drill. With a pre-drilled pilot hole, the delamination can be reduced significantly. Early reference reported models of drilling-i...
