Professor K R W Wallin is a recognised expert in the field of fracture mechanics. Indeed his work has provided a major input to the currently accepted ASTM Standard on the Master Curve Method , E1921.

Branched cracks in a single crystal of 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). (Courtesy: J Lou/Rice University) Fracture tests carried out on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) show that this 2D material has ...

For 35 years, Zdeněk P Bažant relentlessly argued in the American Concrete Institute (ACI) for adopting his non-statistical energetic size effect law, based on quasibrittle fracture mechanics, for ACI ...

On Nov. 18, Paul C. Paris, PhD, professor emeritus of mechanics in the School of Engineering & Applied Science at Washington University in St. Louis, received an honorary doctorate from the University ...

During the 1970s, fracture toughness testing of composite materials developed a very poor reputation, primarily due to failed attempts to directly adopt metals theory and corresponding test methods.
