Analyses of dynamic crack growth along interfaces are discussed. The material on each side of the bond line is characterized by an elastic constitutive relation. A cohesive surface constitutive relation that allows for the creation of new free surface is also specified across the bond line. The resistance to crack initiation and the crack speed history are then predicted without invoking any additional failure criterion. Two dimensional models, both plane strain and plane stress, of the configuration used in experiments of Rosakis and co-workers are analyzed. The focus is on the emergence of crack speeds greater than a characteristic wave speed and on the nature of crack tip fields at such intersonic crack speeds.

Dynamic crack growth along a polymer composite-Homalite interface
Çöker, Demirkan; Needleman, A. (2003-03-01)
Dynamic crack growth along the interface of a fiber-reinforced polymer composite-Homalite bimaterial subjected to impact shear loading is investigated experimentally and numerically. In the experiments, the polymer composite-Homalite specimens are impacted with a projectile causing shear dominated interfacial cracks to initiate and subsequently grow along the interface at speeds faster than the shear wave speed of Homalite. Crack growth is observed using dynamic photoelasticity in conjunction with high-spee...
Dynamic FEM analysis of multiple cMUT cells in immersion
Bayram, Barış; Ergun, AS; Oralkan, O; Khuri-Yakub, BT (2004-01-01)
This paper reports on the accurate modeling of immersion capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (cMUTs) using the time-domain, nonlinear finite element package, LS-DYNA, developed by Livermore Software Technology Corporation (LSTC). A capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer consists of many cMUT cells. In this paper, a square membrane was used as the unit cell to cover the transducer area by periodic replication on the surface. The silicon membrane, silicon oxide post and insulation layer we...
Intersonic shear crack propagation using peridynamic theory
Yolum, Ugur; Çöker, Demirkan; Guler, Mehmet A. (2021-02-01)
Dynamic crack propagation of mode-II cracks is simulated using bond-based Peridynamic Theory (PD) implemented in finite element analysis software ABAQUS. The specimen is a bonded homogeneous Homalite plate with a pre-notch that is subjected to impact shear loading simulating the experiments of Rosakis et al. (1999). The PD bonds at the bonding interface are utilized with a scalar critical stretch value that corresponds to mode-II fracture toughness of the interface. The crack initiation and propagation are ...
SPEED PERCEPTION IN MULTISENSORY PROFILES: WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF ATTENTION?
Kavaklıoğlu, Efsun; Özge, Umut; Kafalıgönül, Hulusi; Department of Bioinformatics (2022-2-7)
Multisensory processing and crossmodal interactions in the temporal domain are crucial for survival in a dynamic environment. Temporal ventriloquism illusion demonstrates the importance of the crossmodal interactions in the temporal domain and the influences of the auditory signals (e.g., auditory time intervals) on visual perception. Attention is another mechanism playing a critical role in sensory processing, and it allows us to prioritize relevant information in the visual field. Previous studies have sh...
An Efficient Interference-Aware Constrained Beamforming and Receiver Design for mm-Wave Hybrid Massive MIMO with Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access
Bayraktar, Murat; Güvensen, Gökhan Muzaffer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2021-7-13)
This thesis investigates efficient interference-aware beamformer design for mm-wave massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Furthermore, adaptation of code-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) to mm-wave massive MIMO is studied. The first part of the thesis concentrates on interference-aware pre-beamformer (analog beamformer) design for joint spatial division and multiplexing (JSDM) which is a user-grouping based two-stage beamforming method. Single-carrier frequency domain equali...
