  • Time-Dependent Crack Growth Mechanisms in Alloy 617 at 800°C in Air

    Creator:
    Addison, Dylan, A.
    Abstract:
    Time-dependent crack growth mechanisms in Alloy 617 at 800°C in air were studied using compact tension samples machined in the L-T direction, cracked at temperature using an induction furnace and servo-hydraulic load frame. The application of different loading waveforms, including triangular, hold time, and sustained loading, were studied with relation...

  • Development and characterization of novel hydrogels for nucleus pulposus replacement

    Creator:
    Bader, Rebecca A.
    Abstract:
    Hydrogels have been proposed as candidates for nucleus pulposus replacement due to their similarity in mechanical behavior to the native tissue when subjected to transient or static loading; however, given the viscoelastic nature of soft biological tissues, the lack of dynamic testing is a significant inadequacy in the studies performed...
