... in activities such as kicking a ball (for example, the right leg for a right-handed person). We also investigated the effect of doing the fatigue exercise on the Achilles tendon after a fatigue exercise of stair climbing, and then checked the stiffness of the tendon again using shear wave elastography. Five...

... and etc. and the design typically follows applicable FRA, APTA and AAR standards. To ensure the truck frame and bolster have enough strength for loads during testing and revenue services, FEA is used to calculate stresses in the frame and bolster for static and fatigue load cases. Various static loading...

... Abstract Traditionally, engineers have used empirical relationships such as the modified Goodman relation and the Basquin equation to design for fatigue and Miner’s Rule to calculate reliability and to predict the remaining useful life (RUL) of structures subjected to fatigue. Research has...

... behavior of AFSD-processed AISI 4340 steel parts under various tensile and fatigue loading conditions. A distinct scale of AISI 4340 steel specimens, namely the standard ASTM rectangular dog bone specimen is considered for the analysis. A finite element (FE) model is developed to predict the tensile...

... Abstract In gas piping systems exposed to pressure drops, the high frequency generated by the flow could provoke acoustic induced vibration. Acoustic induced fatigue is a particular concern as it could lead to catastrophic failure of piping components in a significant short period of time...

... the failure were identified: fatigue damage of the pinion bearing due to abnormal external load and the presence of brittle non-metallic inclusions, which initiated fatigue cracks leading to gear drop blocks. To improve gearbox reliability, suggestions were made to optimize operating conditions and improve...

... internal flaws, resulting in lower than expected failure resistance or fatigue life. Multiple test bar batches using the Ti6Al4V alloy were fabricated by powder bed fusion (PBF) AM technique at different processing conditions. RUS and destructive tests, including tensile and fatigue tests, based on ASTM...

... Methodology under varying operating conditions and then provides a comparison to the widely used NASA/IMS bearing run-to-failure dataset. Laboratory experiments utilized a bearing test stand to capture failure states for fatigue and contamination failure mode. The fatigue and contamination failure procession...

... Abstract A fatigue test employing vibration-based fatigue known as the “Free-Free” has been in use inside the Turbine Engine Fatigue Facility (TEFF) of the Air Force Research Laboratory. The vibration-setup utilizes free boundary conditions by suspending a specimen on its nodal line that when...

... Abstract A new multiparameter model is proposed for the characterization of fatigue crack growth. The model assesses the combined effects of identifiable multiple variables that can contribute to fatigue crack growth. Mathematical expressions are presented for the determination of fatigue crack...

... Abstract The fatigue characterization of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V plays a vital role in ensuring the structural safety. This study focuses on image based surface characterization and the fatigue mechanical property investigation of as-built additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V. Three sets...

... Abstract Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are catching the interest day by day due to their ability to produce very complex shapes or geometries. Investigating the fracture and fatigue behavior of additively manufactured parts are essential not only to understand their mechanical...

The structure level model heritages the characteristic of the transportation model at the material level model and correlates the material degradation with structure-level mechanical loading such as fatigue damage. The model is validated by UV...

... coupling are threaded together to connect the sucker rod and form the rod string. The sucker rod string acts as the connecting link between the surface pumping unit and the subsurface rod pump. The loads generated from the reciprocating upstroke and downstroke motions could impose a risk of fatigue failure...

... Abstract This study investigates the application of electroless nickel deposition on additively manufactured stainless steel samples. Current additive manufacturing (AM) technologies produce metal components with a rough surface. Rough surfaces generally exhibit fatigue characteristics...

... Abstract As part of an evaluation of plastic bead blasting as a means of removing paint from aircraft, fatigue testing was performed on bead blasted material. Typical military aircraft finishes were removed from 0.063 inch (1.6 mm) thick clad aluminum, corrosion resistant steel, and Ti-6Al-4V...
