In this paper, the Voronoimosaic model and the cohesive element method were used to simulate crack propagation in the microstructure of alumina/graphene composite ceramic tool materials. The effects of graphene characteristic size and volume content on the crack propagation behavior of microstructure model of alumina/graphene composite ceramics under different interfacial bonding strength were studied. When the phase interface is weak, the average energy release rate is the highest as the short diameter of graphene is 10-50 nm and the long diameter is 1600-2000 nm. When the phase interface is strong, the average energy release rate is the highest as the short diameter of graphene is 50-100 nm and the long diameter is 800-1200 nm. When the volume content of graphene is 0.50 vol.%, the average energy release rate reaches the maximum. When the velocity load is 0.005 m s, the simulation result is convergent. It is proven that the simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental phenomena.

Control of crack propagation is crucial to make tougher heterogeneous materials. As a crack interacts with material heterogeneities, its front distorts and adopts complex tortuous configurations. While the behavior of smooth cracks with straight fronts in homogeneous materials is well understood, the toughening by rough cracks with tortuous fronts in heterogeneous materials remains unsolved.

The occurrence of cracked tooth is closely related to the abnormal occlusal force. The cracks existing on hard tissue of tooth cannot be self-limiting. As long as the external force exists, the cracks would continue to expand, involving the pulp, periapical, and periodontal tissues, ultimately leading to splitting and tooth loss.

In this study, the degradation behavior of poly(lactic acid) nanocomposite films (PLA/Hec-g@PS) under extreme natural environments was investigated, and the degraded PLA based films were applied to adsorb Cu(II). During the early and midstages of degradation, the surface roughness and crack propagation rate of PLA/Hec-g@PS films were significantly lower than those of PLA films. This could be due to the fact that Hec-g@PS enhanced the interaction forces between C-O-C + CH and C═O in the PLA chains, thereby mitigating the degradation of PLA.

The mechanical behavior and fracture mechanisms of deep fractured rocks under explosive dynamic loads are critical for understanding rock instability in engineering applications such as blasting operations. This study aims to investigate how the presence of pre-existing cracks and different stress states affect the mechanical properties and fracture patterns of rock-like specimens under dynamic loading conditions. We utilized a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) with an active confining pressure loading device to conduct impact compression tests on rock-like specimens containing pre-existing cracks.

Background: Short fiber-reinforced composites (SFRCs) are restorative materials for large cavities claimed to effectively resist crack propagation. This study aimed to compare the mechanical properties and physical characteristics of five commercially available SFRCS (Alert, Fibrafill Flow, Fibrafill Dentin, everX Flow, and everX Posterior) against a conventional particulate-filled composite (PFC, Essentia Universal).
Methods: The following characteristics were evaluated in accordance with ISO standards: flexural strength and modulus and fracture toughness.
