Header Weld Root Fatigue Life Prediction under Combined Thermal and Breathing Cycles
Root notch geometry and coupled breathing-thermal strain dictate header weld fatigue life, requiring non-linear strain-life prediction over far-field stress models.
Quantifying Transverse Rupture Strength Degradation from Entrapped Argon Porosity in Hot Isostatically Pressed Tool Steels
Entrapped argon porosity reduces tool steel transverse rupture strength by creating surface-adjacent stress concentrations that lower Weibull reliability.
Strain Life Fatigue Fundamentals for High Conductivity Aluminum Mold Inserts
Low-cycle strain life fatigue calculations govern high conductivity aluminum insert durability under rapid injection thermal shocks.
Quantifying Microstructural Shear Fatigue Thresholds in Powder Metallurgical Steels under Biaxial Load Cycles
Microstructural shear fatigue limits in powder metallurgical steels depend on sintered density, pore geometry, and non-proportional strain paths.
Prismatic Cell Header Weld Thermal Strain under Solid Electrolyte Swelling
Solid-state prismatic cell swelling generates edge rotation bending strain at header weld roots, requiring wobble laser trajectories and compliant header contours to prevent premature fatigue failure.
