TL;DR: In this paper, an eXtended defect zone (XDZ) describing the propensity for local plasticity during fatigue around a defect has been shown through numerical analysis to be a good indicator of the ranking of the threat to fatigue caused by differently located manufacturing defects.

TL;DR: A review of the application of synchrotron radiation X-ray computed microtomography (SR-μCT) to the study of internal damage accumulation and evolution in structural materials including cast irons and steel, nickel superalloys, lightweight titanium and aluminum alloys as well as metallic, ceramic and polymer composite materials together with additatively manufactured or three-dimensional (3D) printed metallic materials can be found in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, an edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) is proposed for analyzing acoustic problems using linear triangular and tetrahedron elements that can be generated automatically, respectively, for complicated two-dimensional and three-dimensional domains.

TL;DR: In this article, the defect-tolerant design of SLM Ti-6Al-4V alloy was evaluated in terms of the defect population using a combination of the statistics of extremes and the Murakami model.

TL;DR: In this paper, a machine learning method was adopted to explore the influence of defect location, size, and morphology on the fatigue life of a selective laser melted Ti-6Al-4V alloy.
