Abstract The existing engineering empirical life analysis models are not capable of considering the constitutive behavior of materials under contact loads; as a consequence, these methods may not be accurate to predict f...

Abstract Penetration and non-penetration lap laser welding is the joining method for assembling side facade panels of railway passenger cars, while their fatigue performances and the difference between them are not compl...

PURPOSE: To assess fatigue and quality of life in disease-free breast cancer survivors in relation to a sample of age-matched women with no cancer history and to explore the relationship between fatigue and quality of li...

A blowout in a 14 in. diameter, 1/4 in. thick API 5L X46 oil pipeline was due to the sudden propagation of a fracture at the longitudinal Electrical Resistance Welding (ERW) weld. The cracks initiated from small hook cra...

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) truss arch bridges are widely used in long-span bridge construction due to their high strength, good stiffness, and excellent durability. However, arch rib joints, as critical load-be...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate collegiate aviation students’ self-awareness of their fatigue issues; to investigate possible causes of fatigue afflicting collegiate aviation students; and to inves...

Flight training has received little attention in fatigue research. Only transfers of knowledge gained in commercial and military aviation have been applied to general aviation without bridging the gap to the training env...

Fatigue has long been a concern in aviation, especially today, with the ever-increasing traffic volume, pilot shortage, and operations that often disrupt the body’s natural biological rhythms. Despite the implementatio...

Fatigue has long been identified as a human factor in aviation. Subsequently, a series of studies have highlighted fatigue-related elements within the context of the aviation industry, focusing on the flight deck – wit...

Background: Hospital environments pose a high risk of occupational accidents, with needle stick injuries (NSIs) being among the most prevalent, especially among nursing staff. At Bali Mandara Regional General Hospital, ...

Objective: Restless leg syndrome is a major condition experienced by many individuals and is mostly present in medical undergraduates it is mostly found in correspondence with fatigue and sleep and many other factors as ...

Abstract Backgrounds Nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments are widely used in endodontics because of their flexibility and superelasticity. However, the cyclic fatigue resistance of ORODEKA and M3-L systems in curved...

Basketball is defined as a high intensity sport which significantly depends on an anaerobic energy system, specifically its phosphagen and lactate components, especially during very fast transitions from the offensive ph...

Background/objectivesAcupuncture is recommended for the treatment of cancer-related fatigue (CRF), but the strength of evidence remains limited. This study aims to comprehensively update the evaluation of the effectivene...

ABSTRACT This study investigated whether L‐tyrosine supplementation enhances endurance performance in mentally fatigued cyclists. Twelve recreational cyclists completed two constant‐workload tests to exhaustion cycli...

The excellent mechanical properties, high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance combined with moderate cost make superferritic stainless steels (SFSS) commercially attractive. Though these steels are finding incr...

Abstract Background Given that sleep disturbance and fatigue are pervasive among patients with advanced ovarian cancer (OC) and associated with poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL), several patient-reported outcom...

IntroductionThe aim of the study is to investigate the association between fatigue, cognitive impairment, and overall QoL in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).MethodsFifty-one patients with MS with a confirmed dia...

In the field of long-life fatigue, predicting fatigue lives and limits for mechanical com- ponents is crucial for ensuring reliability and safety. Fracture mechanics tools have enabled the estimation of fatigue lives for...

Abstract In the realm of engineering practice, various factors such as limited availability of measurement data and complex working conditions pose significant challenges to obtaining accurate load spectra. Thus, accurat...

Objective: This study was conducted in a descriptive manner to determine the severity of fatigue in patients undergoing hemodialysis due to Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) and to determine the socio-demographic factors affec...

The article provides a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the phenomenon of compassion fatigue in nurses. The relevance of the topic is due to the increase in the emotional burden on medical personnel in the context o...

Objectives: To investigate the monotonic and fatigue strength of 3D-printed 5 mol% yttria partially stabilized zirconia (5Y-PSZ) and the influences of printing layer orientation and finishing protocol. Methods: Bar-shape...

Abstract In modern fossil and nuclear power plants, the components are subjected to creep, fatigue, and creep-fatigue (CF) due to frequent start-up and shut-down operations at high temperatures. The CF interaction on the...
