Journal Article
Hyde, C. J., Hyde, T., Sun, W., & Becker, A. (2010). Damage mechanics based predictions of creep crack growth in 316 stainless steel. Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 77(12), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engfracmech.2010.06.011

This paper describes a novel modelling process for creep crack growth prediction of a 316 stainless steel using continuum damage mechanics, in conjunction with finite element (FE) analysis. A damage material behaviour model, proposed by Liu and Murak... Read More about Damage mechanics based predictions of creep crack growth in 316 stainless steel.

Cyclic thermo-mechanical material modelling and testing of 316 stainless steel (2010)
Journal Article
Hyde, C. J., Sun, W., & Leen, S. B. (2010). Cyclic thermo-mechanical material modelling and testing of 316 stainless steel. International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 87(6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpvp.2010.03.007

A programme of cyclic mechanical testing of a 316 stainless steel, at temperatures of up to 600 °C under isothermal conditions, for the identification of material constitutive constants, has been carried out using a thermo-mechanical fatigue test mac...

On the interpretation of results from small punch creep tests (2010)
Journal Article
Hyde, T. H., Stoyanov, M., Sun, W., & Hyde, C. J. (2010). On the interpretation of results from small punch creep tests. Journal of Strain Analysis for Engineering Design, 45(3), https://doi.org/10.1243/03093247JSA592

The small punch creep testing method is highly complex and involves interactions between a number of non-linear processes. The deformed shapes that are produced from such tests are related to the punch and specimen dimensions and to the elastic, plas...

A novel method for obtaining the multiaxiality constant for damage mechanics which is appropriate to crack tip conditions (2010)
Journal Article
Hyde, C. J., Sun, W., & Hyde, T. (2010). A novel method for obtaining the multiaxiality constant for damage mechanics which is appropriate to crack tip conditions. Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, https://doi.org/10.1115/PVP2011-57166

Many engineering components, such as power plant steam pipes, aero-engine turbine discs, etc, operate under severe loading/temperature conditions for the majority of their service life. As a result, cracks can initiate and subsequently propagate over...
