In the past three decades ratcheting fatigue has attracted lots of research interest.
Ratcheting can be defined as the directional progressive accumulation of plastic …

In many engineering structural applications, including car body structures, sheet metal
formed components are used. A systematic investigation of the impact of forming strain on …

Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) is a method of 3D printing that is well suited to the
cost-sensitive construction industry. Fundamental test data on the mechanical properties of …

To evaluate seismic resistance of concrete structures with bimetallic steel bars (BSBs) over
the entire life cycle, it is important to clarify effects of corrosion ratio and fatigue strain …

When a reinforced concrete structure experiences an earthquake and does not collapse,
irreversible damage in the reinforcement is caused by the fatigue load, which affects the …

To experimentally study the role of the twinning/detwinning process in cyclic plastic
deformation of Mg alloys, both strain-controlled and stress-controlled cyclic tension …

This paper presents a modeling framework to describe the driving mechanisms of cyclic
failure in brittle and ductile materials, including cyclic plasticity and fatigue crack growth. A …

This paper investigated the corrosion fatigue crack propagation mechanism of high-strength
steel bar HRB400 in various corrosive environments. Fatigue crack growth (FCG) tests were …

Cyclic plastic deformation phenomena include the Bauschinger effect, cyclic
hardening/softening, strain range effect, loading history memory, ratcheting, mean stress …

When turbine steel services, ie, startup and shutdown processes, the cyclic mechanical
stress caused by the asymmetry loading conditions is introduced. To study the effect of mean …
