This study aims to provide an overview of numerical and experimental work, related to crack
nucleation under fretting fatigue conditions. In fretting fatigue, multiaxial loads and severe …

Fretting fatigue can significantly reduce the life of components, leading to unexpected in-
service failures. This phenomenon has been studied for over a century, with significant …

Fretting wear is a material damage in contact surfaces due to micro relative displacement
between two bodies. It causes some unexpected results, such as loosening of fasteners or …

Fretting fatigue is a surface damage phenomenon appearing in mechanical contacts
subjected to time variable contact forces. Typical features of fretting fatigue include: wear …

The three-dimensional finite element implementation of a continuum damage mechanics
formulation for multiaxial fatigue is presented, incorporating elastic modulus reduction due to …

The aim of this work is to evaluate wear effects on life prediction for components subjected to
fretting conditions. Therefore, fretting fatigue FE simulations have been carried considering …

In this investigation an approach to fretting fatigue life prediction is developed with
consideration of damage-coupled elastic–plastic constitutive model and wear. Nonlinear …

With the improvement and success of the Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) in notch fatigue
problems, the TCD, especially the Point Method (PM), combined with multiaxial fatigue …

Submarine power cables (SPCs) for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) have received
relatively little attention compared to the structural design of wind turbines. This is …

Bridge suspenders with short length suffer from significant damage, usually following short
service life, heavy casualties and property losses. In this paper, damage in the short …
