Explores failure mechanisms in MEMS, covering design, manufacturing, and in-use failures, emphasizing reliability considerations and mitigation strategies for mechanical shock and vibration resistance.
Explores crack-tip energy dissipation, cohesive zone model analysis, small-scale yielding, stress fields near crack tips, and atomistic stress results.
Explores fracture mechanics, crack growth, and the weakest link theory, emphasizing the statistical distribution of crack sizes and the significance of the largest crack in material failure.
Explores stress-strain curves, material properties, and failure criteria in materials, emphasizing the importance of ductile materials' plastic domain.
