An overview of fatigue failure and how it affects mechanical systems. How FEA software enables engineers to predict fatigue failure points on structural designs, before the manufacturing process. From ...

Even with simulation, critical failure modes like resonance-induced fatigue and connection looseness can emerge during ...

Inside the massive testing hangars across Seattle and Everett, the world's biggest jetliners are turned into mechanical lab rats. Hydraulic actuators yank their wings skyward, compressors simulate ...

MEMS-based accelerometers are increasingly deployed in harsh environments where mechanical stress is not just expected but constant.

The actions of humans, machinery, ventilation and heating systems, and road or rail traffic can cause many vibrations. Although these vibrations have little effect on occupants, equipment used in ...
