A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Recent tendencies of extreme heat events in Italy
Theoretical and Applied ClimatologyAbstract Over the last 20 years, several record-breaking events linked to high temperatures have enhanced the attention over extreme heat phenomena, especially during summer. Both 2022 and 2023 have been exceptional years in this regard. Heat waves, in particular, are a major natural hazard for the most fragile groups of the population.
