Effects of Carbon Nanoparticles on Triboelectro‐Induced Surface Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
Carbon nanoparticles added to grease modify the electrocontact behavior. The synergy of particle concentration and electric current dominates the surface damage of metals in contact. Electrical surface damage caused by current leakage is a critical challenge in high‐performance applications such as electric vehicle (EV) drivetrains and wind turbine ...

Using Multiple Regression Models and Methods to Estimate Fatigue‐Life Distributions and Construct Constant‐Life Diagrams

open access: yesApplied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, Volume 42, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fatigue is the most common reliability failure mechanism and has been studied widely since the 19th century. Material specimens are used in laboratory experiments to obtain fatigue test data. An S‐N curve is used to depict the relationship between the stress (or strain) S$$ S $$ and the number of cycles to failure N$$ N $$. Statistical methods
