This paper proposes a new methodology for fretting fatigue life assessment. It uses a
combination of multiaxial fatigue criteria, the theory of critical distances and a node …

The aim of this work is to show that multiaxial fatigue modeling can be successfully adapted
to estimate crack initiation life of mechanical assemblies under fretting conditions. The paper …

The aim of this work is to evaluate wear effects on life prediction for components subjected to
fretting conditions. Therefore, fretting fatigue FE simulations have been carried considering …

The objective of this study is to investigate the fretting fatigue crack initiation of press-fitted
railway axles. Fretting fatigue tests were conducted on scaled railway axles, and the fretting …

The effects of temperature and load on fretting fatigue induced geometrically necessary
dislocation (GND) distribution in titanium alloy are studied by electron back-scattered …

A methodology that coupled the fretting wear, crack initiation, and propagation was firstly
proposed for the total fatigue life assessment of press-fitted axles. The Smith–Watson …

Abstract High Frequency Mechanical Impact (HFMI) treatment offers a great opportunity to
enhance the lightweight potential of welded structures using high strength steel materials …

This work presents two new models, based on the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)
and non-local stress parameters physically related to crack initiation processes, to estimate …

This work proposes a methodology to compute fretting fatigue crack initiation and total life by
iterative models calibrated with fatigue stress–strain-life curves. One of the main novelty of …
