the relationship between the elastic constant of the metal and the the number of the fatigue cycles?

Submitted by Lang Zhou on

Is there a relationship between the elastic constant of the metal and the the number of the fatigue cycles?If we can find the relationship of the stand test spesimen,can we use that  relationship to predict the fatigue life of other structures?

Postdoctoral research on bone fracture mechanics

Submitted by Rizhi Wang on

One-year postdoctoral research on the fracture mechanics of bone is available at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. The project is a joint research between UBC Biomaterials (biomaterials.MTRL.ubc.ca) and the
Centre for Hip Health and Mobility (www.hiphealth.ca). The research is a combination of experimental studies (failure analysis,
mechanical testing, micro-CT imaging, laser scanning confocal microscopy

Doctoral Studentship in high strain rate properties of Nickel Alloys

Submitted by CliveSiviour on

The Department of Engineering Science at Oxford University has recently obtained an iCASE studentship funded by EPSRC and Rolls-Royce plc to perform research into the mechanical behaviour of metals at high temperatures and high strain rates. The studentship provides full funding (fees and stipend) at the home / EU level for 3.5 years.
