Everything Engineers Need to Know About Fracture Mechanics and Simulation
Fracture Mechanics Explained: Concepts, Software Applications, and Simulation Insights By Saman Hosseini, Fracture Simulation Expert Hello! I’m Saman Hosseini, and I’ve spent years working on fracture mechanics simulation projects. In this post, I’ll walk you through the core concepts of fracture mechanics – like what stress intensity factors and Paris’ law mean – and share […]
Hydrogen Embrittlement in Metals: Causes, Simulation, and Prevention
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) is a phenomenon where metals become unexpectedly brittle and crack due to the absorption and diffusion of hydrogen atoms into the material. Essentially, hydrogen infiltrating the metal reduces its ductility and fracture toughness, so that even below the normal yield strength the material can fracture in a brittle manner. This insidious form […]
