Fatigue of reinforced UHPFRC members and monitoring of fatigue action effects on bridges

The objective of this thesis is to develop knowledge and methods to prevent fatigue failure of bridges. The Fatigue Limit State is investigated from both the demand (S) and resistance (R) side. The S-part focuses on reduction of uncertainties through monit ...

Role of mean stress on fatigue behavior of a 316L austenitic stainless steel in LWR and air environments

Philippe Spätig, Hans-Peter Seifert

Mean stress effects on fatigue life of a stainless steel in air and boiling water reactor (BWR) environments were evaluated by load-controlled tests. In stress-life, non-zero mean stresses increase life in low cycle fatigue regime in both environments and ...

Fatigue Performance of an Additively Manufactured Zr-Based Bulk Metallic Glass and the Effect of Post-Processing

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Annapaola Parrilli, Baptiste Thomas Jean Rouxel, Navid Sohrabi, Milad Hamidi Nasab

Fatigue is the most common cause of failure of mechanical parts in engineering applications. In the current work, we investigate the fatigue life of a bulk metallic (BMG) glass fabricated via additive manufacturing. Specimens fabricated via laser powder-be ...

A novel fatigue life prediction methodology based on energy dissipation in viscoelastic materials

Thomas Keller, Ghazaleh Eslami

This paper introduces a new fatigue life prediction methodology for viscoelastic materials in the tension-tension fatigue loading region. The model was established based on the total amount of energy dissipated during fatigue loading, and offers two main a ...

Multiaxial fatigue behavior and strengthening of riveted double-angle connections in steel bridges using prestressed CFRP rods

Hossein Heydarinouri

A large number of aging road and railway riveted metallic bridges suffer from fatigue problems. Stringer-to-floor-beam double-angle bridge connections are among the most fatigue-prone details due to the many cyclic distortion-induced stresses from axle loa ...

A parametric neutron Bragg edge imaging study of additively manufactured samples treated by laser shock peening

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Markus Strobl, Nikola Kalentics

Laser powder bed fusion is an additive manufacturing technique extensively used for the production of metallic components. Despite this process has reached a status at which parts are produced with mechanical properties comparable to those from conventiona ...
