Strain-based analysis on the influence of local undercut geometry on fatigue crack initiation life

Alain Nussbaumer, Heikki Tapani Remes, Abinab Niraula

The local undercut defects at the weld toe provide a potential initiation site for fatigue cracks and significantly impact the structure's fatigue strength. The influence of continuous undercut depth on fatigue performance is widely studied, but the resear ...

Prediction of the reaction forces of spiral-groove gas journal bearings by artificial neural network regression models

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Elia Iseli

This paper presents neural network regression models for predicting the nonlinear static and linearized dynamic reaction forces of spiral grooved gas journal bearings. The partial differential equations (PDEs) are sampled, based on a full factorial and ran ...

Optimization of a Py-GC/MS method for silicone -based lubricants analysis

Christophe Roussel, Céline Burnier

Condom evidence can be analysed using several analytical techniques, such as FTIR, MALDI-MS or DART-TOF-MS, but the only one that was used on real samples for transfer and persistence studies in the context of sexual assault or rape cases was Py-GC/MS. How ...

Micromotion-induced peri-prosthetic fluid flow around a cementless femoral stem

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine

Micromotion-induced interstitial fluid flow at the bone-implant interface has been proposed to play an important role in aseptic loosening of cementless implants. High fluid velocities are thought to promote aseptic loosening through activation of osteocla ...
