Functional fatigue of NiTi Shape Memory wires for a range of end loadings and constraints

G. Scirè Mammano, E. Dragoni

The availability of engineering strength data on shape memory alloys (SMAs) under cyclic thermal activation (functional fatigue) is central to the rational design of smart actuators based on these materials. Test results on SMAs under…

Experimental Investigation on the Fracture Behaviour of Natural Stones Exposed to Monotonic and Cyclic Loading

Andrea Spagnoli, David Cendon Franco, Antonio D’Angelo

The present paper is devoted to an experimental study on the fracture behaviour of natural stones, commonly used as elements for building cladding, under both monotonic and cyclic loading, with particular emphasis to white Carrara marble.…

Numerical modelling of residual stress redistribution induced by TIG-dressing: TIG-dressing numerical modelling

Paolo Ferro, Filippo Berto, Franco Bonollo, Roberto Montanari

TIG-dressing is a technique used to improve the fatigue strength of welded joints by a remelting of the weld toe region that promotes both a smoother transition between the plate and the weld crown and a residual stress redistribution.…

Evaluation and visualization of multiaxial fatigue behavior under random non-proportional loading condition

Takahiro Morishita, Fumio Ogawa, Takamoto Itoh

In cyclic multiaxial stress/strain condition under nonproportional loading in which principal direction of stress/strain are changed in a cycle, it becomes difficult to analyze stress/strain ranges because of complexity of multiaxial…
