L’altro e le sue immagini. Note sul soliloquio

2016

The paper examines the soliloquy activity by means of some conceptual artifacts borrowed from three research programs: 1) the Enunciative Narratology of René Rivara; 2) the Theory of Predicative and Enunciative Operations of Antoine Culioli; 3) the Dialogical Syntax of John Du Bois. It is composed by three parts. In the first one, we discuss some definitions of soliloquy. The second part is devoted to the analysis of some aspects of such activity with particular reference to some language operations: a) laminations of voice; b) construction of the (interior) co-enunciator. Finally, in the last part we examine some questions that remain open in the debate on soliloquy activity.

Solvent-Induced Delamination of a Multifunctional Two Dimensional Coordination Polymer

2012

A coordination polymer is fully exfoliated by solvent-assisted interaction only. The soft-delamination process results from the structure of the starting material, which shows a layered structure with weak layer-to-layer interactions and cavities with the ability to locate several solvents in an unselective way. These results represent a significant step forward towards the production of structurally designed one-molecule thick 2D materials with tailored physico-chemical properties.

MULTIPLE CRACKS LOCALIZATION FOR THIN COATING FILM LAYERS IN PURE BENDING

2018

Recently, accurate small scale four-point bending flexural tests, for superalloy specimens with multiple ceramic type external coating film layers, have shown that under high loading, the failure mechanism is characterized by the development of complex multiple surface cracks, followed by interior interlayers debonding mechanisms. The final stage is then the complete debonding of the fragmented thermal coating, which leave the interior superalloy completely uncoated. The mechanical problem has an high technological relevance, since failure, or just severe damage, of the ceramic coating, can jeopardize the functionality of structural elements working at high temperature and under severe load…

Experimental Tests of Fatigue Induced Delamination in Gfrp and Cfrp Laminates

2007

This work deals with the experimental analysis of the delamination phenomena in various composite materials under different loading conditions. Quasi-static and fatigue tests are performed on specimens made of glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) and carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP). In particular, under both quasi-static and fatigue loading, single fracture modes I and II (using standard DCB and ENF test configurations) and mixed modes I+II (using the MMB test configuration) with several mode mixtures, have been analysed. Further experiments of delamination growth with mode mixture that varies with the crack length, will be performed.

Mixed mode energy release rates for bonded composite joints

2011

Abstract: Analytical formulae developed by Luo and Tong (2009) to determine the mixed mode strain energy release rates of laminated and co-cured composite structures and joints are reviewed. The effects of varying loading conditions and geometries on the mode mixity found analytically are investigated via a parametric study. A critical evaluation of the analytical formulae indicates that the formulae are robust in calculating the total strain energy release rate, but may underestimate the mode II component compared with the finite element analysis and experimental results. Possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed, including the effect of stress concentrations and singularities at…

Competition between the buckling-driven delamination and wrinkling in compressed thin coatings

2012

Abstract The competition between two common failure modes of a thin coating under in-plane compression, the surface wrinkling and the buckling-driven delamination, is studied to assess the critical strain when the mechanical instability may occur at given geometrical and material parameters. A buckling map is constructed based on results of a finite element analysis, which relates the critical applied strain for the onset of instability to the interface adhesion and elastic properties of materials. An approximate scaling relation is derived for the energy release rate of buckling-driven delamination of a coating deposited on a compliant substrate.

Crack growth analysis at adhesive–adherent interface in bonded joints under mixed mode I/II

2008

The propagation of an interface crack subjected to mixed mode I/II was investigated for two 2024-T351 aluminum thin layers joined by means of DP760 epoxy adhesive produced by 3M©. On the basis of beam theory, an analytical expression for computing the energy release rate is presented for the mixed-mode end loaded split (MMELS) test. The analytical strain energy release rate was compared by finite element (FE) analysis using the virtual crack closure technique (VCCT). Several fatigue crack growth tests were carried out in a plane bending machine to compare the experimental energy release rates to those of the analytical and FE solutions. Experimental results showed the relationship between t…

Debonding failure mechanisms in prestressed CFRP/epoxy/concrete connections

2014

Abstract This paper presents an investigation on the failure mode in prestress force-release tests of CFRP strips bonded to concrete substrates. Background of the study is the gradient anchorage technique. Firstly, experimental test series are presented. It is shown that considerable differences in failure mechanisms between lap-shear and the before mentioned release tests exist. The study reveals a strong Mode I-influence in the debonding process, compared to a Mode II for lap-shear tests. Secondly, FE simulations with a commercially available software are introduced. It is demonstrated that delamination in a force-release test occurs by a mixed-mode failure over the strip width.

Non associative damage interface model for mixed mode delamination and frictional contact

2019

Abstract The present paper proposes a new interface constitutive model based on the non-associative damage mechanics and frictional plasticity. The model is developed in a thermodynamically consistent framework, with three independent damage variables. The non associative flow rules drive the concurrent evolution of the three damage variables. The interface model provides two independent values for the mode I fracture energy and the mode II fracture energy and it is able to accurately reproduce arbitrary mixed mode fracture conditions. The model can also take into account the presence of frictional effects both at the fully debonded zones and at the partially debonded ones. The experimental…
