Abstract: Sintered materials show a different stress-strain behavior when subjected to tensile or compressive loading, the response to compression being characterized by a higher elastic modulus, yield ...

Abstract: The mechanism of the residual stress relaxation during the fatigue life of shot peened high-strength aluminum alloys was investigated. Experiments were conducted on specimens subjected to three ...

Abstract: The theoretical background and the numerical modeling results of a ground-based verification activity of a critical space mission phase affected by adhesion issues are presented. Tribological ...
