This project aims to enhance the fracture toughness of critical metallic components used in various industries by optimizing plate thickness. It focuses on generating new experimental data and developing advanced simulation techniques to improve structural design.
The design of critical structural metallic components in the aeronautic, biomedical, nuclear or pipeline fields is often dictated by a fail-safe criterion established in the context of fracture mechanics.
The design must prevent any pre-existing crack to propagate under nominal but also sometimes accidental loads.
In this context, the primary material property is the fracture toughness quantifying the resistance to crack initiation.
In ductile metals, the fracture toughness depends on plate thic…
