Fretting fatigue is a surface damage phenomenon appearing in mechanical contacts
subjected to time variable contact forces. Typical features of fretting fatigue include: wear …

The service performance of hole surface is directly tied to its machining-induced surface
integrity which is usually produced by sequential operations. Due to its conformal geometry …

In this paper, we present the first numerical analysis upon the effect of heterogeneity on the
stresses in fretting fatigue problems. We analyze the stress distribution in heterogeneous …

Abstract In this study, Ti-6Al-4V dovetail joint specimens which highly simulate the
attachment between the blade and disk of fan stages in a certain gas turbine engine were …

In the last decades, many alleviation measures were proposed in order to improve the life of
fretting fatigue‐affected components. In such a context, the shot peening treatment is worth …

To improve surface integrity and suppress fretting fatigue of bolt-connected 2024HDT alloy
plate-hole structure, the effect of shot peening forming (SPF) and shot peening …

The initial crack path is analysed in a series of fretting fatigue tests with cylindrical contact. In
such tests, both specimens and pads are made of Al7075-T651 alloy and a non-proportional …

This paper analyses the initial crack path in a fretting fatigue test of Al7075-T651 alloy with a
cylindrical contact and compares the capability of some multiaxial fatigue criteria to predict …

Fretting fatigue manifests in mechanical systems exposed to contact forces that vary over
time, resulting in premature cracks that can lead to component failure. Shot peening …

The effect of a rough, textured surface and contact orientations on the fretting behavior of self-
mated martensitic 34CrNiMo6+ QT steel was examined via a large annular flat-on-flat …
