Fatigue and fracture: Overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
A brief overview of the status of the fatigue and fracture programs is given. The programs involve the development of appropriate analytic material behavior models for cyclic stress-strain-temperature-time/cyclic crack initiation, and cyclic crack ...

Integrating Patient‐Reported Quality Measures in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Development of the American College of Rheumatology Implementation Guide

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To support high‐quality, patient‐centered care for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) developed evidence‐based measures incorporating clinical and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs). Using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), we conducted semistructured interviews ...

Associations of Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity with Frailty Over Five Years of Follow‐up

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective To evaluate whether rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity is associated with frailty both in cross‐section and longitudinally. Methods Participants within the Veterans Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis registry enrolled from 2003 to 2022 were included. The exposure was RA disease activity measured by Disease Activity Score in 28‐joints (DAS28)

The effect of the number of response cycles on the behaviour of reinforced concrete elements subject to cyclic loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The development of damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures is a cumulative process. Some damage indices used to quantify damage make use of the number of response cycles as an Engineering Demand Parameter (EDP) relating with damage development ...

Characteristics and outcomes of male participants in the Australian Scleroderma Cohort Study (ASCS).

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective To determine the differences in demographic, serologic and clinical characteristics between male and female patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) in an Australian cohort. Methods Retrospective observational study using data from the Australian Scleroderma Cohort Study (ASCS). Males (M) were compared to females (F) using chi‐squared, Wilcoxon

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Effect of axial and shear prehardening on fatigue behaviour of the 304L SS

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2014
Effects of cyclic prehardening in axial and shear direction at zero mean stress and/or strain on the cyclic behavior and fatigue of an austenitic stainless steel 304L is investigated at room temperature.

Cyclic Fatigue Properties of Piezoelectric Ceramics

open access: yesJournal of the Ceramic Society of Japan, 1990
High-frequency cyclic fatigue properties of lead titanate (PT) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) were investigated experimentally. No obvious effect of cyclic load was observed on the crack propagation in PT, whereas the stress ratio (R) resulted in different crack propagation behavior in PZT (i.e., R-curve behavior or accelerative effect). In order to

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.
