• openAccess   Aplicación de la mecánica de la fractura post-cedencia a polímeros 

      Maspoch, Maria Lluïsa; Franco Urquiza, Edgar A.; Gamez-Perez, Jose; Sánchez Soto, Miguel; Velasco, José Ignacio; Santana Pérez, Orlando Onofre; Martínez Benazat, Antonio Universidad Simón Bolívar (2010)
      The Essential Work of Fracture (EWF) technique has been used for the ductile materials characterization, where yielding phenomenon occurs before crack propagation. The EWF method characterizes the post-yielding ...

      Maspoch, Maria Lluïsa; Franco Urquiza, Edgar A.; Gamez-Perez, Jose; Santana Pérez, Orlando Onofre; Sánchez Soto, Miguel Wiley (2009)
      BACKGROUND: Ethylene–(vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) copolymer/organo‐modified montmorillonite (OMMT) composites were investigated. Composites with two different percentages by weight of OMMT were prepared using a melt‐extrusion ...
    • closedAccess   The Essential Work of Fracture (EWF) method – Analyzing the Post-Yielding Fracture Mechanics of polymers 

      Martínez, A. B.; Gamez-Perez, Jose; Sánchez Soto, Miguel; Velasco, José Ignacio; Santana Pérez, Orlando Onofre; Maspoch, Maria Lluïsa Elsevier (2009-12)
      The Post-Yielding Fracture Mechanics describe the fracture behaviour of pre-cracked films and thin sheets that show yielding phenomenon at the crack tip during fracture. The Essential Work of Fracture method (EWF) has been ...
