the effect of ferrite grain size on the fatigue and tensile properties of dual phase steels with a 0.25 volumefraction of martensite (vm) under different heat treatments was investigated. the heat treatments werehomogenized at 1200 oc along with several subsequent normalizations at 910 oc, resulting in differentmicrostructures and mechanical properties. after heat treatment, the obtained steels...

the premature breakage in some four cylinder diesel engine crankshafts was reported. all crankshafts were failed from the same region. failures had occurred in the first crankpin, the nearest crankpin to the flywheel. dynamic analysis and finite element modelling were carried out to determine the state of stress in the crankshaft. fem results revealed that the first crankpin fillet is the most ...

introduction: this study investigated the fatigue and fracture modes of race and protaper rotary instruments. materials & methods: fatigue resistance was evaluated by rotating the files 30 ° or 60 ° and with 2 or 5mm radius of curvature. race taper 06 size 25 and protaper f1 files (n=40) were used. the number of rotations to failure was analyzed by two-way anova and independent sample     t-tes...

Rapid advances are taking place to develop hydrogels of high stretchability and toughness, but fatigue fracture has not been studied for any hydrogels. This negligence hinders the development of hydrogels and their applications. Herewe initiate a study of fatigue fracture of hydrogels.We choose polyacrylamide hydrogel as a model material. To place fatigue fracture in context, we apply monotonic...

in this article, failure and fracture mechanisms in an aluminum alloy (which has been used in diesel internal combustion engines), with and without ceramic thermal barrier coatings, have been investigated under isothermal and non-isothermal fatigue loadings. in this research, the base material is an aluminum-silicon-magnesium alloy and the thermal barrier coating includes a metallic bond coat l...

Buckling restrained braced frames (BRBFs) for seismic load resistance have been widely used in recent years. One of the key requirements for a buckling restrained brace is to sustain large plastic deformations under severe ground motions. The core of a buckling restrained brace is prone to fatigue fracture under cyclic loading. The earthquake induced fracture type of the core plate in a bucklin...
