Thin-Film Sensor for Fatigue Crack Sensing and Monitoring in Steel Bridges under Varying Crack Propagation Rates and Random Traffic Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fatigue cracks are critical structural concerns for steel highway bridges, and fatigue initiation and propagation activity continues undetected between physical bridge inspections. Monitoring fatigue crack activity between ...
The Elevated Temperature Tribological Performance of Tough and Superhard TaMoN–Ag Films With Solute and Nanocomposite Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Films have been prepared with not only high hardness to guarantee excellent wear resistance but also high toughness to prevent brittle fracture at low to middle-high temperatures. On the basis of ternary transition metal ...
