Actuation Fatigue Characterization Methods and Lifetime Predictions of Shape Memory Alloy Actuators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are a class of intermetallic alloys that possess the ability to repeatedly sustain large amounts of deformation and recover a designed geometry through a thermal-induced, diffusionless, solid-to-solid phase transformation.

Time-dependent damage in predictions of fatigue behaviour of normal and healing ligaments

open access: yesMechanics of Time-Dependent Materials, 2015
Ligaments are dense fibrous tissues that connect bones across a joint and are exposed daily to creep and fatigue loading. Ligaments are tensile load-bearing tissues; therefore, fatigue loading will have a component of time-dependent damage from the non ...

Effects of static–fatigue (tension) on the tension–tension fatigue life of glass fibre reinforced plastic composites

open access: yes, 2006
The effects of static–fatigue interaction on tension–tension fatigue life of glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) composites were investigated. This paper proposed a new static–fatigue model, which is capable of predicting residual strength after a ...
