Fretting in complete contacts - the use of Williams’ solution
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 33
Abstract
Williams’ solution may be used to characterize the corners of ‘complete’ fretting contacts. Here we look at the practicalities of conducting fretting tests using a range of different kinds of apparatus and the kind of results they can reveal of practical relevance to establishing a fretting database.

Effect of Carbon and Nitrogen Content on Deformation and Fracture of AISI 304 Austenitic Stainless Steel
The effect of small differences in the content of carbon and nitrogen on the room temperature tensile deformation and fracture behaviour of an AISI 304 stainless steel was studied. In the steel containing the lower...
Effects of microstructure and crystallography on crack path and intrinsic resistance to shear-mode fatigue crack growth
The paper focuses on the effective resistance and the near-threshold growth mechanisms in the ferritic-pearlitic and the pure pearlitic steel. The influence of microstructure on the shear-mode fatigue crack g...
