Strain incompatibility as a source of residual stress in welding and additive manufacturing
Domenico Zaza, Michele Ciavarella, Giuseppe Zurlo
The accumulation of residual stress during welding and additive manufacturing is an important effect that can significantly anticipate the workpiece failure. In this work we exploi…
Comments on old and recent experiments of "stickiness" of a soft solid to a rough hard surface
Michele Ciavarella
The old asperity model of Fuller and Tabor had demonstrated almost 50 years ago surprisingly good correlation with respect to quite a few experiments on the pull-off decay due to r…
A simplified theory of "stickiness" due to electroadhesion between rough surfaces
M. Ciavarella
Building on theories of Persson, we derive a simpler theory for electroadhesion between rough surfaces using BAM (Bearing Area Model) of Ciavarella, or previous ideas by Persson an…
The false myth of the rise in self-citations, and the impressively positive effect of bibliometric evaluations on the increase of the impact of Italian research
Pietro D'Antuono, Michele Ciavarella
It has recently been claimed by Baccini and coauthors that due to ANVUR's bibliometric evaluations of individuals, departments, and universities, in Italy there has been a surge in…
Mean stress effect on Gaßner curves interpreted as shifted Wöhler curves
Pietro D'Antuono, Michele Ciavarella
A criterion for the mean stress effect correction in the shift factor approach for variable amplitude life prediction is presented for both smooth and notched specimens. The criter…
Universal features in "stickiness" criteria for soft adhesion with rough surfaces
Michele Ciavarella
A very interesting recent paper by Dalvi et al. has demonstrated convincingly with adhesion experiments of a soft material with a hard rough material that the simple energy idea of…
