Mechanical parts are more frequently subjected to cyclic loads than solely static loads. Fatigue issues are commonly observed in turbine blades, aerospace components, locomotive systems, large ...

Material or structural failures are typically the result of two types of loading modes: a single (static) load that results in failure or a repeated (cyclic) load that causes the material or structure ...

This success marks the completion of the 19 months strength research and static fatigue test project on the C919 aircraft composite rear fuselage, one of C919 seven components. C919 composite aircraft ...

Compared to traditional structural materials, polymer matrix composites (PMC) offer greatly enhanced performance and flexibility. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased material ...
