Heavy duty (HD) vehicles are projected to be the largest fuel-use subsector in transportation,
with current demand for diesel fuel projected to grow 30% by 2040. Historically, a primary …

This second part of the review on defects as root cause of fatigue failure comprises the
origin, the nature and the effects of non-metallic inclusions. Topics addressed are the …

Written by pioneers in the study and analysis of very high cycle fatigue this text brings
together the most recent findings on gigacycle fatigue phenomena, focusing on improving …

This third part of the review on defects as root cause of fatigue failure addresses cavities
(pores, micro-shrinkages, unmelted regions), defective microstructures and microcracks as …

Cast A356 alloys prepared by friction stir processing (FSP) were subjected to fatigue
investigation. FSP resulted in a significant improvement in fatigue life of A356. Fatigue life …

A new high-cycle fatigue criterion based on the critical plane approach is proposed in this
paper. Unlike most of the other multiaxial fatigue criteria based on the critical plane …

The present paper deals with the experimental determination and statistical analysis of high
cycle fatigue properties of EN-GJS-400-18-LT ductile cast iron. Constant amplitude axial …

In this study, the ex-situ rotating bending corrosion fatigue behavior of laser powder bed
fused stainless steel (SS) 316L has been studied incorporating experimental analyses and …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) short fatigue crack growth behaviour in a cast magnesium
alloy, Elektron 21, was studied using a combination of X-ray diffraction contrast tomography …

Due to the increasing requirements in the market, engine components must have also an
increasing life, which involves an improvement over 109 cycles in the fatigue strength of …
