Die Weiterentwicklungen in der Betontechnologie führten in den letzten Jahrzehnten zu Hochleistungsbetonen mit immer höheren Festigkeiten. Der Ermüdungsnachweis wurde jedoch kaum weiterentwickelt und beinhaltet immer noch ...

In order to qualify residual stress relaxation as an indicator of mechanical overloading of machined parts, an individually designed residual stress profile has to be allocated. Even though numerous investigations have ...

Understanding the composite damage formation process and its impact on mechanical properties is a key step towards further improvement of material and higher use. For its accelerated application, furthermore, practice-related ...

The accurate prediction of stress histories for the fatigue analysis is of utmost importance for the design process of wind turbine rotor blades. As detailed, transient, and geometrically non-linear three-dimensional finite ...

The results of tests under monotonically increasing load and cyclic compression load are often analysed by means of probabilistic methods. Although there is a considerable scattering in the results, especially in the number ...

The phase field method has gathered significant attention in the past decade due to its versatile applications in engineering contexts, including fatigue crack propagation modeling. Particularly, the phase field cohesive ...

The scientific community is devoting more attention to the wide scope of offshore wind turbine structures. Since such structures are subjected to high level of fatigue loads as well as a large number of load cycles caused ...

Static and fatigue analyses are presented for a new blended wing body (BWB) fuselage concept considering laminar flow control (LFC) by boundary layer suction in order to reduce the aerodynamic drag. BWB aircraft design ...
