Abstract: The energy released due to hysteresis effects in cyclically loaded materials can be used to predict where fatigue cracks are likely to initiate and to determine the stage of fatigue life. In ...

Abstract: A laboratory-scale experimental study of the basic processes and controlling parameters involved in the spontaneous heating of a pile of ferrous metal turnings during their marine transport is ...

Abstract: The scanning infrared camera has been used to verify an analytical model relating blood perfusion rate to skin temperature. The blood perfusion rates were measured with both the mercury strain ...
