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 …

Eddy current testing is widely used for nondestructive evaluation of metallic structures in
characterizing numerous types of defects occurring in various locations. It offers remarkable …

Fretting fatigue in press-fitted axles is closely related to fretting wear. However, most studies
have been limited to the effect of fretting wear on crack initiation, neglecting the interaction …

This paper studies the effect of fretting on fatigue life reduction of thin steel wires, using the
frictionally-induced multiaxial contact stresses obtained from a finite element wear model …

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

Porous titanium implant surfaces fabricated with suitable porosity and size using additive
manufacturing (AM) can enhance bone–implant stability. There is a critical need to …

Fretting wear is one of the main degradation mechanism produced in steel wire ropes. The
experimental characterization of this phenomenon is economically costly and too much time …

The fretting wear behaviour of Ti–6Al–4V is experimentally investigated using a cylinder-on-
flat specimen arrangement for different loads, strokes and numbers of fretting cycles …

This work presents a coupled 3D wear and fatigue numerical procedure for fretting problems
in ultra-high strength steel wires that combines Archard's wear equation with the Smith …

In this paper, a finite element model for the prediction of fretting fatigue crack initiation in the
full-scale railway axle was proposed, which took into account the influence of the stress …
