Damage tolerance theory and the design of safe life are used for mechanical components of
importance and in such instances determination of fatigue life using computational …

Modern electronics, micromechanical devices and applications demanding high reliability to
weight or cost ratio consist of various combinations of multilayered thin films on rigid and …

It is impossible to ignore the realm of the topics related recycling aluminium scraps. The
recycled form of this material can be a good replacement for the primary resources due to …

Gas turbine components made of nickel-based alloys can be repaired through diffusion
brazing. However, process-induced imperfections, defects within the brazing zone, and …

Due to the extensive usage in the industry, the structural integrity of hollow cylinders is seen
as a critical goal for stakeholders. Fracture is the most common failure mode for cylinders …

The repeatability of the air-cooled piston engine cylinder assembly failure due to a crack in
the cylinder head, as well as its severity from the aspect of crew and passenger safety were …

In this paper, mode I stress intensity factors (SIFs) are calculated numerically by finite
element software ANSYS, for a single semi-elliptical circumferential crack on a thick cylinder …

Abstract During Molten Fuel Coolant Interaction (MFCI) occurring in a Sodium-cooled Fast
Reactor (SFR) following a severe accident, the corium jet breaks up into coarse droplets due …

Stress intensity factors (SIFs) considered one of the most important parameters in fracture
mechanics, SIFs can be used to describe the crack growth as well as fracture behaviour. In …

Recycling aluminium is a topic of high interest for numerous researchers to cope with the
high demand for usage of its primary sources, and to overcome the environmental issues at …
