A Combined Computational and Mathematical Analysis of Interconnect Fatigue Potential in Photovoltaic Modules
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A finite element model of a 60-cell monocrystalline silicon glass-polymer photovoltaic module was simulated with ±1.0 kPa and ±2.4 kPa loads applied to the glass to calculate the deformation under load. Cell-to-cell ...
Fatigue Studies of Welded Stainless Steel 304L: Effect of Manufacturability and Weld Type, Choice of Fatigue Model, and Comparison to Pristine Material
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigates fatigue life and fracture in welded stainless steel 304L (SS 304L) resulting from load-controlled fatigue. This was done for specimens from two welding manufacturers. Mechanical testing was carried ...
Characterizing the Fatigue Behavior of Wrought Fe–Co–2V Using Experimental Techniques
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fe–Co–2V (Hiperco®2 equivalent) is a soft ferromagnetic material that is commonly used for electrical components that require robust magnetic performance. Despite the excellent magnetic properties of Fe–Co–2V, it often ...
