The impact of mechanical fatigue on load-bearing metallic components and structures is
highly significant, encompassing economy, environment and safety aspects. For nearly 200 …

Infrared thermography has been under review in the last 30 years due to its versatility and
potential in the detection of the thermal signature associated with intrinsic energy …

The energy dissipation and storage during strain hardening of metals have been
investigated by means of complementary in situ techniques-infrared thermography (IRT) …

One of the most challenging and still unsolved problems within the design and operation of
composite structures is the prediction of its behavior under fatigue loading. This problem is …

Fatigue properties are of fundamental importance and extremely time consuming to be
assessed. The aim of this research activity is to apply the Thermographic Method (TM) and …

The aim of the present work is to investigate the difference in mechanical behavior between
AISI 316L obtained by the turning process and that obtained by selective laser melting …

Fatigue damage onset involves a transformation of mechanical energy. This is in part spent
into work of plastic deformation and fracture and in part transformed into heat. Therefore …

The work presented here deals with the implementation of a new methodology that allows
fast and reliable determination of the fatigue strength. It is based on monitoring the specimen …

This paper is devoted to predicting fatigue life under multiaxial loading based on dissipated
heat during a fatigue test. In the thermography approach, the total dissipated energy can be …
