Fretting fatigue can significantly reduce the life of components, leading to unexpected in-
service failures. This phenomenon has been studied for over a century, with significant …

Turbomachinery and other jointed structures are carefully designed to optimise their
dynamic response and prevent unwanted high-cycle fatigue failures due to vibration …

Bolted joints may suffer from fretting damage which can significantly decrease fatigue life. A
testing arrangement was developed to study the effect of different operating and design …

The progress in fretting fatigue understanding and predictability is reviewed, with
engineering applications in mind. While industrial assessments often relies on simple …

A unique dovetail-based test fixture for fretting fatigue was designed and is demonstrated
with a combined experimental and numerical campaign. Fretting fatigue damage is …

Complex high-value jointed structures such as aero-engines are carefully designed and
optimized to prevent failure and maximise their life. In the design process, physically-based …

An experimental method that can quantify relative slip was developed using digital image
correlation (DIC) in order to evaluate the sliding portion. The bridge-type test setup was …

Digital image correlation (DIC) is an increasingly popular and effective non-contact method
for measuring full-field displacements and strains of deformable bodies under load. Current …

This paper opens up the history of structural analysis and dynamics simulations of Wärtsilä
engines. It cites already published articles and theses with some backgrounds information. It …

Fretting wear is a quasi-static process in which repeated relative surface movement of
components results in wear and fatigue. Fretting wear is quite significant in the case of …
