Fatigue damage represents a key failure mode in ship structures. Such damage typically
begins at vulnerable points in the structure, like welded joints, stress concentration areas …

Glass Fiber reinforced polymers (GFRPs) are widely used and play an important role in
modern society. The multilayer structure of GFRPs can lead to delamination defects during …

An analytical relationship between the stress intensity factor and temperature rise for a
moving crack tip is proposed. Comparison of the predictions with experimental results shows …

Metal replacements for automotive and aerospace components are already a consolidated
reality, in light of the advantages offered by fibre-reinforced polymers, consisting of reduced …

This paper proposes and experimentally investigates a novel nondestructive testing method
for ferromagnetic elements monitoring, the Magnetic Recording Method (MRM). In this …

Additive manufacturing (AM) is spreading in a wide range of industrial fields. The influence
of the printing parameters on the mechanical performance is still an open issue among …

This paper presents an attempt to generalize the description of the course of specimen
temperature changes during the tensile test and to connect the value of the thermoelasto …

The objective of this work is to analyze the high-cycle fatigue performance of the corroded
base material without joints. Constant-amplitude axial tensile fatigue tests were conducted …

The existing load-end shortening formulae with beam-column buckling in CSR-H were
derived from the theoretical buckling formulae of stiffener elements considering the effective …

The paper investigates the fracture behaviour of U-notched specimens made of
polymethylmethacrylate at room temperature under mixed mode loading conditions. The …
