Cover Story: The pine-like dendrites produced by a galvanostatic electrodeposition at a current density of 13.05 mA cm−2 from 0.10 M AgNO3 in 0.50 M (NH4)2SO4 with the addition of NH3 to dissolve the silver sulfate precipitate. The current density of the electrodeposition was 1.5 times larger than the limiting diffusion current density for this electrolyte. View this paper

A Phase Field Model for Rate-Dependent Ductile Fracture

  • Hojjat Badnava,
  • Elahe Etemadi and
  • Mohammed A. Msekh

17 May 2017

In this study, a phase field viscoplastic model is proposed to model the influence of the loading rate on the ductile fracture, as one of the main causes of metallic alloys’ failure. To this aim, the effects of the phase field are incorporated in the...
