Abstract:This contribution proposes a study of the mechanical behavior from damage to fracture of normalized and annealed samples of AISI 4340 steel. Besides, a numerical study in a security device of offshore industry is conducted. Experimental tests were initially performed on smooth and notched cylindrical specimens subjected to monotonic tension as well as on rectangular specimens subjected to pure shear and a combination of shear and tension loads. Such experimental tests were selected to observe different combina… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
