Analysis of crack propagation in the wedge splitting test via digital image correlation and finite element analyses
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência e Engenharia de Materiais - PPGCEM, Câmpus São Carlos, 19/02/2019)Castable refractories are applied in dangerous environments in which it is unpractical to avoid crack initiation. Therefore, their microstructure is usually complex in order to hinder crack propagation by toughening ... -
Fracture of refractories at room and elevated temperatures analyzed with wedge splitting tests and image correlation
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência e Engenharia de Materiais - PPGCEM, Câmpus São Carlos, 20/02/2024)Industrial high-temperature processes relies on castable refractories, whose formulation and characterization become crucial for minimizing energy loss and costs. Increasing the failure predictability is key to reducing ...
