1 ASTM : American Society of Testing and Materials
2 Assuming a small plastic zone compared to the specimen dimensions, a critical value of the mode-I SIF may be an appropriate fracture parameter. K IC : plane strain fracture toughness plane strain K C : critical SIF, depends on thickness plane stress K I > K C : crack propagation Specimen Thickness KCKC K IC : Lower limiting value of fracture toughness K C Material constant for a specific temperature and loading speed Introduction:
3 Standard Test Methods for Plane-Strain Fracture Toughness and Strain Energy Release Rate of Plastic Materials K I based test method ensures that the specimen fractures under linear elastic conditions confined plastic zone at the crack tip Many similarities to E 399, with additional specifications important for plastics. ASTM E 399 first standardized test method for K IC : - was originally published in 1970 - is intended for metallic materials - has undergone a number of revisions over the years - gives specimen size requirements to ensure measurements in the plateau region ASTM D 5045 -99 is used here for plastic materials:
4 Two specimen configurations for D 5045 -99 : Three Point Bend specimen (SENB): Compact tension configuration (CT): 1- Test specimens
5 For valid K IC measurements, the specimens are designed to ensure : B must be sufficient to ensure plane strain. yield stress of the material for the temperature and loading rate of the test W-a must be sufficient to avoid excessive plasticity in the ligament. - a small plastic zone size / specimen thickness B. - that plane strain conditions dominate around the crack tip. Plastic zone length c from Irwin Model (plane strain): Plane stress condition if c = B From ASTM 399 Plane strain condition if c < B/25 Thus,
6 2- Precrack: K C decreases with decreasing until a limiting value C 6.3 m The theory considers an ideal plane crack with zero notch radius Notch in reality Below C, K C approximately constant: The notch can simulate the theoretical crack Remark:
7 Chevron starter notch (see p4-26): The chevron forces crack initiation at its center. A sharp crack of length a f is propagated by fatigue such that: where Natural crack a0a0 W a The measured crack length a is the average of the crack lengths measured at: - the center of the crack front: a 1 - the end of the crack front on each surface: a 2 and a 3 During fatigue the maximum SIF must not exceed 60 % of K IC B a1a1 a2a2 a3a3 B W Measurements of B and W to 0.1% accuracy Alternatively, a2a2 a3a3 B W a1a1
8 Laboratory specifications for the specimen W = 48 mm a 0 = 0.45 W A A A-A B Chevron 90°
9 3- Experimental procedure Expression for the calculation of the SIF (CT- configuration): f shape function for the CT specimen (see A2.5 p8) Accurate within ± 0.65% over the range K Q conditional or trial K IC value. Fatigue crack propagation: P(t) 30 120 Time P(t) (N) half a day to complete 3 Hz Crack front
10 Servohydraulic testing system (Instron) used with constant displacement rate imposed. Several specimens tested (at least three) : reproducibility Both displacement and load recorded simultaneity during the test. Loading rate and test temperature should be noted. Test procedure: (see section 8.3)
11 4- Interpretation of test record and calculation of K IC P max : maximum load sustained by the specimen AB : initial compliance C = u / P AB' : compliance 5% greater than AB Evaluation of P Q : P max within lines (AB) and (AB'): P Q = P max P max outside lines (AB) and (AB'): P Q = intersection of (AB') and the load curve Calculus of K Q P max / P Q < 1.1 Calculus of K Q P max / P Q > 1.1 Test invalid
12 Calculation of the trial value K Q with the relation : If moreover, then is equal to When the test result fails to meet these requirements, use a 1.5 times larger specimen. (see 9.1.5) See Testing summary table 3, p6. http://lmafsrv1.epfl.ch/Fracture_course2006/KIC%20testing/

Before Sonos you had to pick your poison when it came to sound. You could have whole home, 2-channel, home theatre, sound bars and a million more options. BUT you had to pick one, maybe two, functions at best.

Dear Aunty,
I don't think you're my Aunty any more. Maggie & Simon have made such a differenc....
To view full entry click here
1 giant South Australian Octopus
½ cup olive oil
12 olives
1 sprig dried oregano or marjoram
Juice of one lemon
Rind of one lemon thinly peeled
Extra virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
Garlic Aioli
1 egg yolk
3 cloves garlic
Extra virgin olive oil
1tsp Dijon mustard
squeeze of lemon juice
Essential equipment: One heavy based large wide cooking pot (preferably shallow sided)
Always order a well tumbled octopus from your vendor. [If its not been tumbled, smothering it with papaya or kiwifruit will help break down and soften the octopus.]
Dry the octopus with kitchen paper and cut away the central beak.
Heat the olive oil with the olives in the pan until it just begins to smoke, holding the tentacles together in one hand, lower the head into the pan and seal the flesh on one side. Then lower the tentacles in and swirl them around the edges of the pan for about 3 minutes. This will give an incredibly deep pink/burgundy hue to the octopus. Pull the octopus out and repeat the process on the other side of the head first then the tentacles.
Reduce the heat immediately to the lowest possible flame even using a simmer pad to impede heat if this isnt easily controllable. Add the oregano. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer for a period that will be as wide a range as 15 minutes to 45 minutes depending entirely on the size of the octopus the thickness of the tentacles, the effectiveness of the tumbling before you bought it.
Keep a close eye on the octopus and as the tentacles first begin to come away from the heat it is cooked. Allow to cool in its juices until easily able to be handled. Prepare the vinaigrette.
Pull tentacles away to slice on the diagonal, put cut pieces straight into the vinaigrette.
Serve with roasted tomatoes with basil and garlic mayonnaise. (Aioli)
Garlic Aioli
Break egg yolk into a bowl and beat, adding olive oil drop by drop until the Aioli has thickened. Keep adding oil until the mixture can take no more. Once the mixture has thickened you can add the rest of the oil faster and also the garlic, lemon juice and mustard.

Viking Potatoes
By using Perforce Helix, artists and designers have the freedom to quickly and easily modify assets and get them back into the system so they can pass them off to the programmers."
Kamil Nowakowski
Engine Programmer, Viking Potatoes
As they prepare for their October 2016 launch, Konrad Krawczuk, Project Manager and Kamil Nowakowski, Engine Programmer, understand that artists, musicians, and programmers alike rely on communication and asset sharing to bring 8Suns to life.
Core Pain Points
Before moving to the Perforce Helix Versioning Engine, Viking Potatoes considered using their own solution, but realized it wouldn't be powerful enough to meet their teams' needs, notably:
- Facilitating collaboration and artwork transfers between designers and programmers
- Ease-of-use for non-technical users
- Storing multiple versions of large binary files
- Synchronizing and merging files
- Eliminating Server latency problems
Speed, ease of use, and quality are crucial to everything that the team does. To stay competitive, Viking Potatoes' approach to game development relies heavily on Agile best practices to accomplish twice as much in half the amount of time.
To address these issues, Viking Potatoes realized that they needed a proven versioning system. Based on their extensive experience in game development, they could think of only one that could meet their requirements.
Why Perforce?
- Supports Agile development best practices
- Enables reliable, organized workflows
- Enables users of varying technical abilities to submit files, check them in or out, and merge them automatically
- Supports large binary files without crashing
"98 percent of the files in a game are binary, so we needed a versioning platform that could support them. Other versioning systems just don't like binary files, and as a result they crash often," says Nowakowski, a long-time Perforce user.
What's more, thanks to Perforce's versatility, even non-technical users rely heavily on the platform, providing the company with a single source of truth that simplifies digital game development.
The majority of Perforce users at Viking Potatoes are artists who appreciate just how easy it is to use Perforce. All they need to know is where to find the Submit and Get Latest buttons, which means they can focus on what matters most to them: creating high-quality, game-specific assets and pushing their ideas to the limits.

Re-enrollment will be easier for 2016/2017. If you already have a plan under Nevada Health Link, re-enrollment automatically continues you on that plan. BUT please note that carriers and plans have changed for 2017. If your 2016 plan is no longer available you will automatically be re-enrolled in a comparable plan. Therefore, we encourage Nevada consumers to shop the marketplace to find a plan that is tailored to suit your needs. You can do so by visiting Healthcare.gov or by visiting our Approved 2017 Unsubsidized Rate Page.
- You will be automatically re-enrolled into a health insurance plan for 2017 if you were previously on a plan in 2016 with the Nevada Health Link.
- To be sure any financial help continues starting January 1, 2017, you must continue your payment by the insurance carrier's payment policy.
When should you re-enroll?
You will automatically be re-enrolled on your current plan unless you would like to change carriers and/or plans.
- Enroll by December 15, 2016 to ensure any financial help continues starting January 1, 2017.
- Open enrollment is open through January 31, 2017.
NOTE: Once you enroll in a plan, you must pay your first premium directly to the insurance company – not to the Health Insurance Marketplace. Insurance companies handle payments differently. Follow the instructions from your insurer about how and when to make your premium payment and the due date.
Remember: Based on your income, you could receive help from the federal government to pay for some of your insurance costs in 2017. Plus, more plan options are available for 2017, and you can review them when you re-enroll here.
How can you get help?
Here are the ways you can get personal assistance:
- Licensed Insurance Professionals – Brokers are available to help you enroll, answer your questions, or shop a new plan. You can use our in person assistance search tool to find a broker in your area. Or, if you received help before from a certified insurance broker, please contact him or her again.
- Your Current Carrier – If you want to stay with your current insurance company, you can contact them to see if they can directly enroll you through Nevada Health Link.
- Certified Navigator Organizations and Assisters – Navigator Organizations and Assisters are available to help you re-enroll. You can use our in person assistance search tool to find a Navigator Organization or Assister in your area. Or, if you received help before from a certified Navigator Organization or Assister, please contact him or her again.

"This was a mission that was started before I got here", Trump said.
"I think President Obama's behind it, because his people are certainly behind it", Trump said. They came to see me, they explained what they wanted to do, the generals-who are very respected. My generals are the most respected that we've had in many decades, I would - I believe. "And they lost Ryan", President Trump said.
USA military officials told Owens's father his son was killed in the early minutes of the firefight, which also included female al-Qaida combatants.
On the raid, Chief Petty Officer William "Ryan" Owens, 36, was killed. He also criticized the Trump administration for using his son's death to attack those calling for an investigation.
February 9: "It's absolutely a success, and I think anyone who would suggest it's not a success does disservice to the life of Chief Ryan Owens".
Spicer took a much different tack Monday, expressing condolences to Owens's family and saying the mission couldn't be called a 100 percent success, given the fact that an American was killed.
Thye decision to approve the mission was not made from the Situation Room or even from the Oval Office, but over a dinner that included Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon, Defense Secretary Mattis and Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr., Vice President Mike Pence, and the now-former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn.
Mike Mayock: No quarterbacks worth taking in top 10
NFL Network's Mike Mayock hosted a two-hour press conference so we'll be dropping tidbits from his musings all week. Instead, they finished last in the league, and were only marginally better a year ago at 30th.
He branded the raid a "grand display", pointing out that for the past two years ground forces had not been deployed in Yemen.
While the raid was planned under the Obama administration, Obama refused to green light it, which Trump did after being president less than a week.
Reports have painted a chaotic scene at the raid where al Qaeda may have been tipped to the SEALs' impending arrival.
Just days into his presidency, Donald Trump approved the operation which killed SEAL Ryan Owens on January 29.
NBC News reported Monday, citing unnamed senior USA officials, that the raid had produced no "actionable intelligence". After White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said this weekend that Trump would probably back an investigation into the operation, Spicer noted Monday the Defense Department will review it as a matter of standard procedure.
"I know that the mission has a lot of different critics, but it did yield a substantial amount of very important intel and resources that helped save American lives and other lives", Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the deputy White House press secretary, said on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.

Mirko Vucinic is a doubt for the Sampdoria game as the Juventus man continues to struggle with an ankle problem.
The Montenegrin international is having issues with his Achilles tendon and may not be risked at the Juventus Stadium.
Boss Antonio Conte could thus opt for a front-two of Sebastian Giovinco and Alessandro Matri.
The latter scored twice in the club's last game of 2012, a 3-1 win against Cagliari played at Parma's Stadio Tardini.

Lighthouse Writers will move into the historic Milheim House -- which has its own tale to tell
Lighthouse Writers Workshop, the fourteen-year-old creative writing school that has helped some of Denver's best authors, is moving and consolidating its classrooms and office space into the historic Milheim House at 1515 Race Street.
The house, built in 1893 for John and Mary Milheim, was originally located at 1355 Pennsylvania Street, across from the Molly Brown House. John Milheim was a Swiss immigrant who opened Denver's first bakery and other businesses.
But in 1989, the house, a Denver Square, was set to be demolished by the Colorado State Employees Credit Union, which planned to build a parking lot. Historic preservationists raised a stink, however, so the credit union offered to give the building to anyone who would move it, along with the $40,000 it was planning to pay for the demo, according to a 1996 story in the Denver Post. James Alleman and Ralph Heronema II stepped up.
The two men still own the house, and Lighthouse Writers has signed a five-year lease on the property, which resembles their current facility, the Thomas Hornsby Ferril House, a two-story Victorian at 2123 Downing Street that was once home to the Colorado poet laureate who died in 1988. Built in 1890, the Ferril house is now a state-protected landmark building owned by the nonprofit Colorado Humanities.

"It's been great, but for the past two years, we've had to supplement our space with other venues," says Andrea Dupree, who founded Lighthouse with her husband, Mike Henry, in 1997. But when Colorado Humanities announced that it was selling the house, Lighthouse began looking for larger space. The Milheim House "is gorgeous," Dupree says. "And it is three times the size. It also has a writerly feel to it that people just love."
Although the Milheim house is understated on the outside, it is gorgeous on the inside, retaining much of the original detail, Dupree says.
Moving it was a massive challenge, however. It took three semi trucks to carry it -- very slowly -- through Capitol Hill. Numerous power and other utility lines had to moved, but no trees were allowed to be cut down in the process, the Denver Post wrote. The 5,000-square-foot house weighed 583 tons.
Lighthouse will take over on July 1 and plans to hold an Open House Celebration and Tour on Tuesday, July 19, from 4 to 7 p.m.

Rutgers University-Camden
Bringing the Rutgers experience to southern New Jersey and the Delaware Valley, Rutgers University–Camden prepares the next generations of leaders by delivering interdisciplinary and innovative research, rigorous academic programs and engaged experiential learning opportunities, and solution-oriented services that change communities. As one of the nation's highest-ranked public regional universities, Rutgers University–Camden offers access to a top-quality educational experience to a diverse population; our size allows undergraduate and graduate students to thrive in an intimate and supportive atmosphere within a preeminent public university. Rutgers University–Camden continues to build on its core strengths by creating distinct areas of research excellence, strengthening interdisciplinary graduate and professional programs, and improving student success through a wide range of supportive programming. Our prominence as a research institution is strong and rising. Rutgers University–Camden is home to an increasingly productive faculty that, on a per capita basis and adjusted for the scale of our campus, generates original research, publishes in leading scholarly journals and with top publishing houses, and attracts research funding at a comprehensive and truly impressive rate. Our research faculty engage with K-12 populations to encourage overall STEM enrollments, particularly from underserved populations. And our commitment to engaging students in original research at all levels is a signature characteristic of the Rutgers–Camden learning experience
Q-STEP at Rutgers University–Camden strives to increase the numbers of successful graduates in the sciences and mathematics and to enhance the level of their quantitative skills. A fundamental activity of the Q-STEP program is the creation of a community of scholars in the quantitative sciences. The community provides a supportive social network, increased chances for group study and problem-solving, peer tutoring, and opportunities for early and consistent involvement in research. Q-STEP Scholars are entering freshmen, while Q-STEP Mentors are more advanced students (in their junior year). This program is supported through the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Talent Expansion Program (STEP) of the National Science Foundation (NSF).Q-STEP
The Computational Biology Summer Program provides meaningful summer research experiences to 10 undergraduate students and combines experimental, theoretical, and computational approaches with a focus on the intersection of the mathematical, computational, and biological sciences. In addition to the research experience, students receive computational biology training, professional skills development, and enrichment sessions geared towards broadening their understanding of the application of and issues surrounding scientific research. Faculty and post-graduate mentors guide the research projects and advise students toward further study and career development.Computational Biology Summer Program
The Department of Computer Science at Rutgers University–Camden started the Research Academy to enable students to participate in research in computer science during their undergraduate studies. Students who are part of this academy have an opportunity to study advanced courses early on in their studies at Rutgers–Camden. Through these courses the students are trained to do research and to do so with the Rutgers–Camden computer science faculty. Conducting research as an undergraduate helps students find jobs as well as make them attractive for admissions into graduate schools. Several computer science students from Rutgers–Camden have been admitted to top graduate programs. Eligible students may also receive financial support.Computer Science Research Academy

500 Days of Spider-Man!
So, the verdict is in, and the new Spider-Man is not a cool black guy, its a poncy, English-raised American named Andrew Garfield. He was in that post-life Heath Ledger movie, "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". The director meanwhile is Marc Webb, director of the legendary chick flick, "500 Days of Summer". And even more amazing, or bizarre, is that the new film will be shot in 3D! To me, this a whole clusterfuck of strange news. I understand they had to re-boot Spider-Man because director Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire left due to scheduling conflicts, and that Spider-Man 3 was a massive creative abortion, but I'm not yet sold on this creative team at all. Can a romantic, weepy indie director like Webb pull off a 3D action nerd extravaganza? Like I detailed in my Donald Glover post, I wanted the producers to take a more bold 21st century type leap with the franchise…instead we are getting a potential Twilight-esque action flick aimed at scooping up teenage girls along the way. As more news comes out on the development of this movie, I'll be posting my thoughts and opinions. Stay tuned Spidey fans.

If you loved "The Notebook", you better get ready for this new film by Nicholas Sparks entitled, "The Last Song" starring Miley Cyrus and the new hunk that is probably going to give Taylor Lautner a run for his hunkiness – Liam Hensworth.
You must have gone through a box of Kleenex while watching "The Notebook" and I'm sure, with Nicholas' style you better be prepared for this one as well. And man – – couldn't you just take off your eyes on this Australian hunk? I'm sure after this film, his name will be all over and will become a household name in no time at all.
Here's the trailer. Stop staring at Liam! He's mine! 🙂

Get The Hump
I'm sure you are familiar with the concept of it all being fun and games until someone comes along to ruin it. Check out the animal version of that. In late summer the plankton bloom is at its height. Vast shoals of herring gather to feed on it, diving birds round the fish up into a bait ball and then a humpback whale roars in to scoop up the entire ball of herring in one huge mouthful. Awesome in the true sense of the word.

Glass Steam Engine
This model of Stephenson's steam engine was made in 2008 by master glassblower Michal Zahradník. The crankshaft is glass. The piston is glass. The counterweight that makes the wheel spin evenly is glass. Imagine that everything is made out of glass. There are no sealants used. All seals are accomplished by a perfectly snug fit. The gap between the piston and its compartment is so small, that the water that condensates from the steam seals it shut! Notice the elaborate excessive steam exhaust system next to the piston. Apparently the piston is the most arduous part to make due to the extreme level of precision needed. Its parts have to be so accurate that no machinery is of use here. The piston and its cylinder must be hand sanded to perfection, and they are very likely to crack in the process! On average, three out of four crack.

Another "hero" of mine that I would have loved to have a conversation with is Alan Turing. A true genius who had a profound influence upon the development of several fields, but whose personal life and death were touched by tragedy. The video below features Dr Jonathan Tepper from Nottingham Trent University making his contribution to the My Favourite Scientist website.

The McGurk Effect
Whilst researching something completely unrelated the other day I came across a phenomena known as the McGurk Effect. I'd not heard of it before but found it interesting enough to post here. Put very simply, it occurs when a sound we hear contradicts the visual. I managed to dig out a clip from the excellent BBC series Horizon called Is Seeing Believing?

AT&T Predictions
The following video shows a series of commercials by US communications company AT&T that make some predictions about how we might be using technology in the future. Except that the future is now because these ads were made back in 1993, a time before the Internet was a standard thing in the home let alone the street. They are surprisingly accurate.

After my visit to Canada earlier this year I seem to be unwittingly drawn to all things Canadian at the moment. Films, TV, books, blogs, photographs etc. Not that I'm complaining, I loved the place and hope to return one day. In the meantime I get beautiful reminders of my time there like the following time-lapse of Toronto. Taken not long after I left, it really shows this amazing city off.

Fresh Christmas
Hopefully she will forgive me as I'm posting this without prior permission, but today's post is stolen from one of my favourite blogs. Fresh Eyes On London provides a superb candid photograph once a day as the charming Mo explores her surroundings. Today's post puts me in a festive mood.
OK it's now close enough to Xmas that I am now going to bring Xmas images. This year it began in October! Way to early for me. The giant Xmas tree in St Pancras Station is entirely made of Lego. One way of being green I guess. It's a hit with the tourists as they arrive on the Eurostar.

This short-film was created entirely by young comic-artist Jesús Orellana with no budget during a single year. Since it's world premiere at the Seattle International Film Festival, ROSA has been an official selection at film festivals around the world such as Screamfest, Toronto After Dark, Anima Mundi or Los Angeles Shorts Film Festival. In October ROSA was screened at the opening night of the Sitges International Film Festival, considered the world's best festival specialised in genre films. Following the successful festival run, the short film has attracted the attention of the major talent-agencies and Hollywood producers. Currently ROSA is in development to be a live-action motion picture.
ROSA from Jesús Orellana on Vimeo.
The film takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where all natural life has disappeared. From the destruction awakes ROSA, a cyborg deployed from the Kernel project, mankind's last attempt to restore the earth's ecosystem. ROSA will soon learn that she is not the only entity that has awakened and must fight for her survival.

Dr Who Prequel
Not long until Christmas now but that also means that it won't be long until the Dr Who Christmas special. Yay!
To get us all in the mood, the BBC has kindly released what they're calling a prequel, although it's more of a teaser if you ask me. Either way, it certainly gets me in the mood for The Doctor, The Widow and the Wardrobe to be shown on Christmas day.

Back To The Start
Willie Nelson performs a rather nice cover of The Scientist by Coldplay to accompany this short animation. It promotes the Chipotle Cultivate Foundation. A simple message well put.

Nikola Tesla
Today's post is dedicated to a man I wish I could have spent just thirty minutes with. Nikola Tesla was a true genius and one of the most prolific inventors the world has known. Unfortunately, he is not as famous as he should be and many put this down to the controversial nature of some of his discoveries. Is there a conspiracy to keep this man's true genius from? The following is part of a fascinating documentary called The Lost Wizard.

John Lennon
I don't often write posts about current affairs but today is an anniversary that I couldn't let pass by. Thirty-One years ago today the world lost John Lennon. Outside his apartment in New York, he was shot in the back four times. His killer pleaded guilty and was sentenced to twenty years but remains in prison after being denied parole six times. What follows is my favourite song of Lennon's. RIP.

Moves Like Jabba
There is nothing like a good parody eh? Maroon 5 and their annoyingly catchy song "Moves Like Jagger" are wonderfully sent up with this comedy Star Wars version. Enjoy!

Military Wives Choir
This will be more familiar to you if you are from the UK. The wives and girlfriends of some British troops, with no singing experience at all, formed a choir. Within seven months they performed at the Royal Albert Hall for a remembrance night. Now there is a campaign running here to get this single to number one and beat the X-Factor effort.

History Of The World
Kalle Mattson's video for their song Thick As Thieves is beautifully shot as a stop-motion animation of a condensed version of the history of the world. Director Kevin Parry did such a good job of attracting attention to the band that they have decided to offer their album as a free download for a short time. See their website.

The boffins at MIT often come with amazing things and whilst I would not consider "Boxie" to be amazing, it really caught my interest. Boxie is a mobile interactive robotic camera built with the goal of actively capturing stories about its environment and the people within it. The video explains.
