Cyclic Elasto-Plastic Behaviour of 51CrV4 Steel for Railway Parabolic Leaf Spring Design

Applied Sciences
Parabolic leaf springs are components typically found in suspensions of freight railway rolling stock. These components are produced in high-strength alloyed steel, DIN 51CrV4, to resist severe loading and environmental conditions. Despite the material’s

Crack Arrest Analysis of Components With Compressive Residual Stress

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 1272-1287, March 2025.
ABSTRACT A finite element analysis and fracture mechanics methodology for determining the autofrettage pressure required to cause crack arrest in components under varying pressure loading are presented. Superposition of the autofrettage residual stress distribution and working load stress distribution is combined with ANSYS Separating Morphing and ...

Fatigue Design Curves for Industrial Applications: A Review

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 1001-1021, March 2025.
ABSTRACT In the present paper, a review on the design curves for safe–life fatigue design is provided. The methodologies available in the literature for the assessment of the strain–life and stress–life design curves have been analyzed, focusing also on the industrial practice for the design of critical components.

A critical review of some damage models with unilateral effect [PDF]

, 2002
The concern here is the macroscopic modeling of the brittle damage unilateral effect (due to the opening-closure of microcracks). Several formulations have been proposed in recent years to solve the problems pointed out by Chaboche (Int. J. Damage Mech.

Modeling of Stress–Strain Fields Below U‐Notch Root Using Plasticity Approximation Rules Under Variable‐Amplitude Loading

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 900-913, February 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates the applicability of Neuber's and equivalent strain energy density (ESED) rules to predict the material response below the root of a sharp U‐notch under variable‐amplitude (VA) loading for crack propagation simulations.

Influence of Induction Hardening on Wear Resistance in Case of Rolling Contact

Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2016
The main aim of the presented paper is to show how heat treatment, in our case the induction hardening, will affect the wear rates as well as the ratcheting evolution process beneath the contact surface in the field of line rolling contact.

Structural Performance Evaluation of Composite Beams With Different Shear Transfer Mechanisms at Beam‐Slab Interface

JAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–December 2025.
ABSTRACT In general, a steel beam is connected to a concrete slab using shear connectors, forming a composite beam. This composite action shifts the neutral axis under bending, resulting in a buckling behavior that differs from that of a bare steel beam.

New tension-compression damage model for complex analysis of concrete structures [PDF]

, 2016
A new damage model, based on continuum damage mechanics and simulating the opening, closing, and reopening of cracks in concrete using only one surface of discontinuity, is proposed in this article.

Fretting Fatigue Life Model Under Combined Loading

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 16-30, January 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates the capability of the theory of critical distances (TCD) coupled with the Fatemi–Socie (FS), Smith–Watson–Topper (SWT), and normal stress range (S‐N) criteria for the lifetime estimation of combined fretting fatigue, that is, the combination of bending and axial loading modes, for 316L stainless steel along with the effect

Validated prediction of weld residual stresses in austenitic steel pipe girth welds before and after thermal ageing, Part 2: modelling and validation [PDF]

, 2019
An extensive finite element simulation campaign was undertaken to examine the complete manufacturing history and high temperature thermal ageing of thick-walled girth-welded austenitic steel pipes fabricated from Esshete 1250 austenitic steel.
