In a crystal, structural defects such as dislocations or twins are well defined and largely determine the mechanical and other properties. These defects can be easily identified as the broken ...

The study of how charge flows through two-dimensional surfaces has been one of the fastest growing areas of research in physics over the past decade. More recently, however, scientists have begun to ...

Analysis of the residual fatigue life of X70-grade pipeline steel with a semi-ellipse defect shows the maximum stress intensity factor under the influence of the flow field to be higher than the value ...
