Based on the critical plane approach, a simple and efficient multiaxial fatigue damage
parameter with no additional material constants is proposed for life prediction under …

This paper reports an experimental study on mechanical response of single-lap bolted
composite interference-fit joints in their entire life span. Particular focus was given to …

Requirements for connection reliability, stability, and service of components in the design
and manufacturing process for aeronautical equipment are progressively growing stricter …

Bolted joints may suffer from fretting damage which can significantly decrease fatigue life. A
testing arrangement was developed to study the effect of different operating and design …

In this study, F a–N curves and σ n_s–N curves of bolted connections under different
geometric and load parameters were obtained through tensile-shear fatigue tests. The …

The function of the heart valve interstitial cells (VICs) is intimately connected to heart valve
tissue remodeling and repair, as well as the onset and progression of valvular pathological …

Numerical simulations of the fatigue damage evolution at a hole in a plate treated by cold
expansion or with interference fit pin is performed based on continuum damage mechanics …

This paper reports an experimental investigation on bearing behavior and failure
mechanism of single-lap bolted composite interference-fit joints under thermal effects. To …

Surface roughness has proven to be an important factor on the fatigue life of FV520B-I.
However few laboratory experiments on fatigue properties with the consideration of surface …

The work deals with multiaxial fatigue strength of notched round bars made of 40CrMoV13.
