The initiation of fracture in the microstructure at room temperature was observed in tension,
compression and torsion. Cracks are formed in the carbide particles in a direction normal to …

An experimental study of the variation of transverse-rupture strength with composition and
grain size has shown that the strength reaches a maximum for values of the mean free path …

… Recently, Pickens and Gurland 7 reported that the fracture toughness measured on SENB
… Pickens and Gurland 7 applied the ductile fracture criterion proposed by Rice and Johnson …

Among the cemented carbides, the tungsten carbide/cobalt (WC-Co) alloys ate the most
studied. Four parameters are used to characterize their microstnictutes: the binder volume …

IN spite of the extended use and high state of practical development of the cemented tungsten
carbides, the structure of these alloys is still a matter of considerable controversy. The …

The important role of the deformation of the cobalt-rich binder phase in the fracture process
of sintered WC-Co alloys has been noted in many recently published papers, either by …

Injuries to the carpometacarpal joints are uncommon and are sometimes overlooked on
initial radiographs. Their recognition depends on a careful physical and radiographic …

The Palmqvist indentation cracking test is sometimes used for the characterization of the
toughness of cemented carbides. The test provides a measure of the indentation crack …

… Neyman [11], Gurland [7]) but is not included here for brevity. It is planned to submit further
… From the results in Gurland [7] or Barankin and Gurland [8] it follows that minimization of the …

Ductile titanium of high purity is produced by decomposing titanium iodides, formed by the
action of iodine vapor upon the crude metal, on a hot filament. The construction and operation …
