Metallic materials are extensively used in engineering structures and fatigue failure is one of
the most common failure modes of metal structures. Fatigue phenomena occur when a …

This third part of the review on defects as root cause of fatigue failure addresses cavities
(pores, micro-shrinkages, unmelted regions), defective microstructures and microcracks as …

Fatigue failure in the high-cycle and ultrahigh-cycle regimes is often dominated by the crack
initiation processes, which are strongly influenced by the salient features and defects in the …

The influence of machined surface roughness on the fatigue life of 7010 aluminium alloy has
been investigated. Four-point bending specimen have been machined according to various …

At GE Research, we are combining “physics” with artificial intelligence and machine learning
to advance manufacturing design, processing, and inspection, turning innovative …

Fatigue performance is a serious concern for mechanical components subject to cyclical
stresses, particularly where safety is paramount. The fatigue performance of components …

The possibility of predicting the fatigue behavior of additively manufactured materials by
means of microstructure-and defect-sensitive models is discussed in this paper. The effects …

Fatigue cracks usually initiate at the surface in homogenous materials, thus the surface state
has a high influence on fatigue life. The most important surface parameters are surface …

Ti6Al4V alloy has been highly employed in numerous applications of aerospace, medical,
and chemical industries because of having excellent corrosion resistance, fracture …

This encyclopedia, written by authoritative experts under the guidance of an international
panel of key researchers from academia, national laboratories, and industry, is a …
