Loading rate can affect significantly the load bearing capacity and cracking resistance of
asphalt mixtures that are basically visco-elastic materials. On the other hand, the scatter of …

Combined high and low cycle fatigue (CCF) is a common failure mode of turbine shaft. This
study presents a generic procedure for probabilistic CCF life prediction, and combined with …

A novel method for determine the probabilistic distribution model of natural rubber (NR)
fatigue life is proposed. Uniaxial tension fatigue tests are carried out on dumbbell-shaped …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyse fatigue-life prediction based on a reliability
assessment for coil springs of vehicle suspension systems using different road excitations …

Tension–tension fatigue performances of T700/MTM46 composite laminates were
investigated in this paper and the fatigue limit was determined. Failure modes of the fatigue …

A bending fatigue mini-specimen (Krouse-type) was used to study the fatigue properties of
nuclear materials. The objective of this paper is to study fatigue for Grade 91 ferritic …

Sliding wear is a key determinant of the performance of electrical sliding contacts used in
electrical machines. The behavior of the contact in sliding couple is controlled by the mutual …

High-cycle fatigue (HCF) and low-cycle fatigue (LCF) fatigue lives of rolled AA1100 and
AA1050 aluminum sheets along different directions were evaluated at room temperature …

This paper presents the capability of acoustic emission (AE) technique to predict the fatigue
life of SAE 1045 carbon steel using a newly formulated statistical distribution. The specific …

This paper presents the determination of a suitable probability function for fatigue-related
reliability assessment of automotive coil springs under various road excitations using …
