Fatigue failure is caused by crack propagation in materials under a varying load, typically a cyclically varying load.
22.
One major design consideration of rigid pavements is reducing fatigue failure due to the repeated stresses of traffic.
23.
Since cyclical ( that is repetitive ) turbulence may lead to fatigue failures, most HAWTs are of upwind design.
24.
These materials are also vulnerable to fatigue failure, a process which occurs with use over a long period of time.
25.
Most fatigue failure can be attributed to thermo-mechanical stresses caused by differences in the coefficient of thermal and mechanical expansion.
26.
Fatigue failure is common among major roads because a typical highway will experience millions of wheel passes throughout its service life.
27.
The cause of the crash was due to fatigue failure of a swashplate carrier driving link in the front rotor hub.
28.
The Cape Race LORAN-C transmitter was used as an fatigue failure of the eyebolt head in a compression cone insulator on a structural guy-wire.
29.
A fatal crash of the W11 Air Horse, due to a small component fatigue failure, put an end to this very promising heavy-lift helicopter project.
30.
The investigation concluded that the helicopter became uncontrollable as a result of structural disintegration in flight caused by a fatigue failure of the main rotor blade.
