The intensity of the infrared radiation emitted by objects is mainly a function of their
temperature. In infrared thermography, this feature is used for multiple purposes: as a health …

A vast amount of research has been carried out towards the goal of quantifying changes
related to the fatigue damaging process in materials throughout the fatigue life. However, no …

Polymer-based materials are increasingly produced through fused deposition modelling
(FDM)–an additive manufacturing process, due to its intrinsic advantages in manufacturing …

Temperature is one of the most common indicators of the structural health of equipment and
components. Faulty machineries, corroded electrical connections, damaged material …

Polymer composite materials are being increasingly used in primary load-bearing structures
in several advanced industrial fields such as aerospace vessels, railway wagons and mega …

Basalt reinforced composites are recently developed materials. These mineral amorphous
fibres are a valid alternative to carbon fibres for their lower cost, and to glass fibres for their …

The available methods for the rapid determination of the fatigue limit (Metall. Ital. 27 (1935)
188; Rev. Metall. XVIII (1951) 11) and for the analysis of the dynamic parameters of crack …

Determination of fatigue limit under uniaxial tests based on the experimental measurement
of material thermal increments (typically by means of infrared cameras) is well documented …

The fatigue of dual phase steel was examined in terms of calorimetric effects in order to
match the energy manifestations of fatigue and constitutive equations drawn up in a …

Thermography was used to investigate the fatigue behavior of a braided carbon fiber
polymeric composite plate. A thermographic approach, originally developed in an earlier …
