Effect of Microstructure on Fatigue Damage Accumulation in 7075 Aluminum Alloy Subjected to a Single Compressive Overload

open access: yesMetals
7075 aluminum alloy has been widely used because of its excellent mechanical properties. The fatigue crack acceleration induced by compressive overloading is detrimental to 7075 aluminum alloy in service, and the corresponding mechanisms are complex.

Efficient Harvesting of Irregular and Low‐Frequency Mechanical Energy via Hybridized Electromagnetic‐Triboelectric Systems

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable electronics necessitates sustainable power sources to replace the limited electrochemical battery. While mechanical energy harvesting offers a promising solution, traditional harvesters face challenges of irregular and low−frequency environmental sources. This review presents the

Simulasi Perubahan Prilaku Regangan Geser Material Rel Pada Perubahan Suhu Permukaan Kontak Akibat Beban Gelinding/Gesek

open access: yesJurnal Energi Dan Manufaktur, 2012
Repeated wheel load over rail can cause rail material at the contact surface to accumulate severe plasticdeformation. The material fails after accumulating a critical shear strain and produce wear debris and fatigue cracks.

The Feasibility of Household Food Waste Reduction in Finland: Insights From Five Consumer Profiles

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We apply a household production framework to analyse how changes in cooking skills, waste‐abatement costs and wage rates influence the food waste behaviour of five consumer profiles in Finland. We find that achieving a given reduction in food waste through skill‐enhancing interventions induces larger behavioural adjustments than equivalent ...

Success and failure in foreign policy: Comparing Bob Hawke and Kevin Rudd's regional order‐building initiatives

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract Remarkably little is known about what factors drive success or failure in foreign policy. In part, this is because there is little fundamental agreement on what constitutes success or failure in this domain in the first place. This article engages with these shortcomings by comparing two similar regional order‐building initiatives overseen by ...

The 18G2A Steel (Construction Steel) Cyclic Behaviour in the Case of Complex Uniaxial Loading

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 1995
This paper is concerned with the phenomenon of uniaxial cyclic material behaviour in the plastic range. A set of systematic strain and stress-controlled cyclic (tension-compression) experiments was conducted on round bar specimens made of 18G2A (heat ...

Does Inequality Blur Class Lines? Meritocratic Attitudes in Comparative Perspective

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scholars of inequality generally find that lower‐class individuals are more skeptical of meritocratic narratives that link economic success to individual work effort. However, past research has yielded inconclusive findings about how economic inequality affects meritocratic attitudes across different class groups.

How Due Diligence Transforms Private Sustainability Governance: The Case of the Global Organic Textile Standard

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growing awareness of social and environmental risks in global supply chains has driven a shift from voluntary corporate responsibility toward mandatory due diligence legislation. These emerging regulatory frameworks require businesses to identify, prevent, and mitigate adverse human rights and environmental impacts, thereby redefining the ...
