In addition, as reflected by the plot in Figure 4, the Fracture Toughness of rail and wheel steel is rangebound but substantially temperature dependent. That leaves fatigue crack size and temperature ...

Fatigue Fracture: The progressive, localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading, eventually leading to crack initiation and propagation.

Fatigue fracture mechanism of amorphous materials from a density-based coarse-grained model. Communications Materials , 2022; 3 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s43246-022-00293-9 Cite This Page : ...

Researchers at The University of Tokyo simulated fractures in amorphous materials due to both cyclic fatigue and constant stress using course-grained dynamics, and demonstrated various failure ...

But when the team is not sure, it just looks at fracture surfaces (sometimes only a small undamaged fracture surface remains after a multiple-part failure), identifying fatigue or overload failure ...

Further investigation into the cause of United Airlines Flight 328’s engine failure, which scattered debris over Broomfield last month, confirms “multiple fatigue fracture” on a fan blade ...

Even today, the failure of engineering components and structures as a result of fracture, fatigue, creep and corrosion is not an uncommon event. With a greater understanding of these failure ...

Liquid pipeline service failures have occurred because of pressure-cycle-induced fatigue crack growth of defects. 1 Our own familiarity with this phenomenon suggests that it may be more common ...
