A micromechanical-based finite element framework is developed to investigate the rolling
contact fatigue (RCF) in rails. The microstructure of a representative part of the rail in contact …

In this study, a novel test system for estimating bending and torsion fatigue under selectable
kinematic and dynamic loading modes was constructed. Using S355J2 steel specimens, a …

Austenitic stainless steel, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance and workability,
plays a pivotal role as a structural material across multiple industries. Under cyclic loading …

Different pearlite interlamellar spacings of 0.54% carbon (C) wheel steel were obtained by
heat treatment, and the influence of interlamellar spacing on fatigue behavior of the steel …

In order to obtain correct experimental results, fatigue strength tests carried out on the basis
of a measurement setup using dynamic excitation generated by inertial force require test …

In this study, the effect of shot peening intensity of the structural steel specimens on the
bending fatigue strength was investigated. Three structural steels S235JRG2, S355J2+ N …

The goal of this research is developing a computational framework to study mechanical
fatigue and fracture at different length scales for a broad range of materials. The developed …
