1. A National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) research team has identified the mechanism by which microscopic fatigue cracks grow in metals, solving a half-century-old mystery. The team found ...

Biaxial fatigue and the associated crack growth behaviour in metallic materials have become a focal point for both academic and industrial investigations due to their critical implications for ...

Metallic glasses (MGs) exhibit greater elastic limit and stronger resistance to plastic deformation than their crystalline metal counterparts. Their capacity to withstand plastic straining is further ...

(a) Schematic illustration for our precise sectioning technique on the location of fatigue crack initiation; maximum stress and cycles to failure for (b) NAMP state; (c) HIP state; (d) HIP+STA state.

The hole that developed in the fuselage of a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-300 last year was caused by what the US National Transportation Safety Board describes as "pre-existing fatigue at a ...

A fatigue crack was the cause of a major leak from the Keystone Pipeline that occurred in the US in December, according to third-party analysis commissioned by pipeline operator TC Energy. The ...

Why modern electronics are so susceptible to thermomechanical fatigue. How multiphysics software tools can aid the design process, resulting in better product longevity. The airbags in your car… the ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — An engine disk that broke apart and forced an American Airlines jet to abort a takeoff in Chicago last week shows signs of fatigue cracking, according to a preliminary report ...
