Abstract: This paper describes a procedure that permits the calculation of the fatigue life over a wide range of temperatures and strain rates. The isothermal fatigue life is expressed in terms of the ...

Abstract: In this paper, single and multiple overloading tests under cyclic controlled stress were carried out on specimens of Worm-like Graphite Cast Iron (WGCI), a brittle material. The results showed ...

Abstract: Wear is one of the major causes that affect the performance and reliability of tribo-systems. To mitigate its adverse effects, it is necessary to monitor the wear progress so that preventive maintenance can be timely ...
