MODELLING OF STRESS GRADIENT EFFECT ON FATIGUE LIFE USING WEIBULL BASED DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION [PDF]

, 2013
In the present paper, a new approach is developed in order to take into account the stress gradient effect on fatigue life of structural components. The proposed approach is based on the weakest link concept in which the shape coefficient of the Weibull ...

Can Coastal Rowing Be Made Safer Through Auxetics‐Inspired Personal Protective Equipment?

physica status solidi (b), Volume 263, Issue 5, May 2026.
A survey of beach sprint coastal rowers examined perceived injury risk, attitudes towards personal protective equipment (PPE) and barriers to its use. The findings were used to guide the design of auxetic‐based PPE for this sport that is highly conforming, breathable and visually appealing. We report the results of a survey aimed at assessing how beach

SensHB.Q: A Cost‐Effective Force‐Sensitive Handlebar to Control Omnidirectional Robots and Wheelchairs

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1471-1483, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper details the design and development of SensHB.Q, a force‐sensitive handlebar intended for caregivers driving electric‐powered wheelchairs, particularly those with omnidirectional mobility. The same interface can also be used in the future to operate other omnidirectional motorized systems, such as mobile robots, hospital beds, and ...

Piezoresistive Monitoring of Carbon Nanomaterial‐Reinforced Epoxy Composites Under Cyclic and Fatigue Loading: A Review

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 8, 22 April 2026.
Carbon nanomaterial‐reinforced epoxy composites exhibit pronounced piezoresistive behavior, enabling intrinsic damage sensing under cyclic and fatigue loading. This review critically compares carbon nanotube and graphene systems, correlating filler content, percolation threshold, and gauge factor with sensing stability and damage evolution.

FATIGUE LIFE PREDICTION OF NOTCHED STRUCTURE USING COMBINED CRITICAL PLANE-CRITICAL DISTANCE APPROACH (MT)

Jixie qiangdu, 2023
In engineering practice, due to various functional requirements, structures with geometric discontinuities occur widely; in addition, most structures undergo complex multiaxial loads, which drives the development of relevant theories.

A crack-like notch analogue for a safe-life fretting fatigue design methodology [PDF]

, 2003
Various analogies have recently been proposed for comparing the stress fields induced in fretting fatigue contact situations, with those of a crack and a sharp or a rounded notch, resulting in a degree of uncertainty over which model is most appropriate ...

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 7, 8 April 2026.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

From Mechanics to Electronics: Influence of ALD Interlayers on the Multiaxial Electro‐Mechanical Behavior of Metal–Oxide Bilayers

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 27, 2 April 2026.
Ultrathin AlOxHy interlayers between aluminum films and polymer substrates significantly improve electro‐mechanical properties of flexible thin film systems. By precisely controlling interlayer thickness using atomic layer deposition, this study identifies an optimal interlayer thickness of 5–10 nm that enhances ductility and delays cracking.
