The fatigue-life contour plot of an aluminum suspension component was generated by fe-safe from Safe Technology Ltd., and a finite-element computer model. The software correctly predicted failure ...

Software for durability assessment reveals whether or not designs will survive cyclic loading. Ever design a device that failed under stresses far below what you thought were "safe?" If so, the likely ...

Shafts are fundamental components in a wide range of engineering applications, from automotive and aerospace to industrial machinery. The integrity of these elements is critical, as failure not only ...

Without a doubt, the most common failure mode I see in my lab is fatigue. Unlike overload failures, which occur more or less immediately when a load is applied, fatigue failures are progressive in ...

Why modern electronics are so susceptible to thermomechanical fatigue. How multiphysics software tools can aid the design process, resulting in better product longevity. The airbags in your car… the ...

In a recent study published in the journal PNAS Nexus, researchers explored using multimodal wearable sensors combined with machine learning to measure real-time fatigue among manufacturing workers.
