Abstract: Macro-scale ductility is not an intrinsic material property but is dependent on the overall geometry of the specimen. To account for variety in specimen geometries, multiple ductility scaling laws have been developed, which ...

Abstract: Fatigue testing is notoriously slow, requiring many hours to obtain 1 data point on an S–N curve. Such tests can be accelerated somewhat using vibration-based techniques, which load on the order of kHz, such that tests ...

Abstract: In vibration-based high cycle fatigue testing, a base-excited plate is driven at a high frequency resonant mode until failure. In one vibration-based method involving a cantilevered square plate, a mode often referred to ...
