EWI Principal Engineer Xian-Kui Zhu was recently published online and will soon be in print in the Journal of Pressure Vessel Technology. The article was co-authored with Poh-Sang Lam, Savannah River National Laboratory.
In their article “Deformation Versus Modified J-Integral Resistance Curves for Ductile Materials,” Zhu and Lam provide a brief review on the development of deformation and modified J-integral testing, and present a simple incremental equation. Experimental results with discussions and recommendations are included.
The article is available from ASME’s Digital Collection. Participants in EWI’s Cooperative Research Program may request a copy of the article by contacting the EWI Library.
