Low Stress Level and Low Stress Amplitude Fatigue Loading Simulation of Concrete Components Containing Cold Joints under Fatigue Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Concrete linings containing cold joint defects may crack or detach under the aerodynamic fatigue loading generated by high-speed train operation, which posing a serious threat to the normal operation of high-speed trains.

Low-velocity impact response of friction riveted joints for aircraft application

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
In this paper, the sensitivity of carbon fiber reinforced polyether-ether-ketone (CF-PEEK) friction riveted joints to impact damage was assessed as well as the damage propagation during fatigue and quasi-static mechanical testing.

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

Thermomechanical fatigue crack initiation in disc alloys using a damage approach

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
A fatigue crack initiation model based on damage accumulation via a fatigue memory surface in conjunction with a plastic strain energy parameter was evaluated for thermomechanical fatigue loading in a gas turbine disc alloy.

Addressing Economic Insecurities Can Improve Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Lupus

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Economic insecurities, such as food, housing, transportation, and financial challenges, are modifiable risk factors and influence patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We examined the following: (1) associations between economic insecurities and PROs, and (2) the impact of screening and addressing economic ...

Influence of grain structure and slip planarity on fatigue crack growth in low alloying artificially aged 2xxx aluminium alloys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The fatigue crack growth behaviour under constant amplitude loading of three low alloying artificially aged 2xxx aluminium alloys with distinct microstructures is analysed. Fatigue crack growth tests show a correlation between fatigue performance and the

Principal component analysis and perturbation theory–based robust damage detection of multifunctional aircraft structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A fundamental problem in structural damage detection is to define an efficient feature to calculate a damage index. Furthermore, due to perturbations from various sources, we also need to define a rigorous threshold whose overtaking indicates the ...

Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Assessment of fatigue damage evolution in woven composite materials using infra-red techniques

open access: yes, 2010
Thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) is used to study the growth of fatigue damage in single and twoply, 2 x 2 twill woven composite materials. Test specimens were subjected to a uniaxial tensile cyclicloading with maximum stresses of 10, 15 and 20% of ...

PE-HD fatigue damage accumulation under variable loading based on various damage models

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2017
Despite numerous studies on fatigue of polymer materials under variable loading, there is little work on highdensity polyethylene (PE-HD). In this context, an experimental analysis for determining the fatigue strength of PE-100, under constant and ...
