Management of the respiratory distress symptom cluster in lung cancer: a randomised controlled feasibility trial. [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Breathlessness, cough and fatigue are distressing symptoms for patients with lung cancer. There is evidence that these three symptoms form a discreet symptom cluster.

Characterisation of a resonant bending fatigue setup for pipes [PDF]

, 2011
This paper discusses the resonant bending fatigue test setup designed at laboratory Soete for full-scale fatigue tests on pipes. Following an enumeration of other types of fatigue test setups an attempt is made to characterise the resonant bending ...

Development of a fretting-fatigue mapping concept: The effect of material properties and surface treatments [PDF]

, 2009
Fretting-fatigue induced by combined localized cyclic contact motion and external bulk fatigue loadings may result in premature and dramatic failure of the contacting components.

Discussion of Speeding Up Fatigue Test of Full-Scale Aircraft

Engineering Proceedings
The full-scale aircraft fatigue test is a critical assessment and validation of the fatigue and damage tolerance design of new aircraft models, and it is also a prerequisite for obtaining the type certification for an aircraft.

Review and classification of fretting fatigue test rigs [PDF]

, 2011
There is no standard or generally accepted test rig for fretting fatigue experiments. Therefore, researchers adopt an existing concept, or build a new test rig that meets their specific requirements.

Design of a fretting fatigue test rig with compliant springs [PDF]

, 2013
Fretting is a small amplitude oscillatory movement which occurs between contacting bodies who are subjected to cyclic loading or vibrations. In the contact area arise stresses -normal and tangential- causing stress concentrations and surface degradation.
