Journal Article
Rouse, J. P., Simonelli, M., & Hyde, C. J. (2020). On the use of small ring testing for the characterisation of elastic and yield material property variation in additively manufactured materials. Additive Manufacturing, 36, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2020.101589

© 2020 Elsevier B.V. The present work introduces a small volume, high throughput testing method that may be used to quickly, and with high spatial fidelity, investigate local material properties in additively manufactured materials. A case study appl... Read More about On the use of small ring testing for the characterisation of elastic and yield material property variation in additively manufactured materials.

A review of non-destructive testing techniques for the in-situ investigation of fretting fatigue cracks (2020)
Journal Article
Kong, Y., Bennett, C. J., & Hyde, C. J. (2020). A review of non-destructive testing techniques for the in-situ investigation of fretting fatigue cracks. Materials and Design, 196, Article 109093. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2020.109093

© 2020 The Authors Fretting fatigue can significantly reduce the life of components, leading to unexpected in-service failures. This phenomenon has been studied for over a century, with significant progress being made during the past decade. There ar...

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd The polycrystalline nickel-base superalloy RR1000 is used as turbine rotor material in Rolls-Royce aero engines and has to withstand a wide variety of load and temperature changes during operation. In order to maximize the potenti... Read More about The prediction of crack propagation in coarse grain RR1000 using a unified modelling approach.

Potential difference methods for measuring crack growth: A review (2020)
Journal Article
Si, Y., Rouse, J. P., & Hyde, C. J. (2020). Potential difference methods for measuring crack growth: A review. International Journal of Fatigue, 136, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2020.105624

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd Non-destructive testing techniques are widely applied in industry for the evaluation of quantities of interest without inflicting additional damage accumulation. Crack detection and monitoring is a prime example of where non-destr... Read More about Potential difference methods for measuring crack growth: A review.

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd An understanding of rate dependency over a wide range of time scales is vitally important in approximating the transient response of critical components operating in extreme environments. Many examples of viscoplastic model formul... Read More about A viscoelastic – viscoplastic material model for superalloy applications.

The effect of phase angle on crack growth mechanisms under thermo-mechanical fatigue loading (2020)
Journal Article
Jones, J., Whittaker, M., Lancaster, R., Hyde, C., Rouse, J., Engel, B., …Li, H. Y. (2020). The effect of phase angle on crack growth mechanisms under thermo-mechanical fatigue loading. International Journal of Fatigue, 135, Article 105539. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2020.105539

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd The current paper describes TMF crack growth behaviour in an advanced nickel-based superalloy. Changes in behaviour are examined which occur as a function of the phase angle between applied stress and temperature. The fractography...
