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 ...
