Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effect of temperature on the cyclic fatigue resistance of conventional (ProTaper Universal [PTU]), Gold-Wire (ProTaper Gold [PTG]), and Fire-Wire (EdgeTaper Platinum [ETP]) nickel-titanium alloy files.
Method: Twenty files from each system were tested for cyclic fatigue resistance in an artificial canal model. The experiments were performed at room temperature and body temperature in controlled temperature water. Magnified videos were recorded using a dental operating microscope integrated camera during testing to detect file fracture. The number of cycles to failure (NCF) was calculated. The type of failure was investigated macroscopically and microscopically with a dental operating microscope and scanning electron microscope, respectively.
Result: The NCF at room temperature was significantly higher compared with body temperature in each system (P < .001). Compared at the same temperature, the ETP group demonstrated the highest NCF, followed by the PTG and PTU groups (P < .001). All files demonstrated cyclic fatigue failure macroscopically and microscopically.
Conclusions: The 3 alloy files were affected by temperature. The cyclic fatigue resistance was reduced at the higher temperature and increased at the lower temperature. If the files are geometrically identical, files made of Fire-Wire are preferred compared with Gold-Wire and conventional nickel-titanium alloys based on cyclic fatigue resistance.

This study delves into the feasibility of leveraging quasi-static component (QSC) generation during primary Lamb wave propagation to discern subtle alterations in the interfacial properties of a two-layered plate. Unlike the second-harmonic generation of Lamb waves, QSC generation doesn't necessitate precise phase-velocity matching but rather requires an approximate matching of group velocities to ensure the emergence of cumulative growth effects. This unique characteristic empowers the QSC-based nonlinear ultrasonic method to effectively surmount the limitations associated with inherent dispersion and multimode traits of Lamb wave propagation.

Fatigue failure poses a serious challenge for ensuring the operational safety of critical components subjected to cyclic/random loading. In this context, various machine learning (ML) models have been increasingly explored, due to their effectiveness in analyzing the relationship between fatigue life and multiple influencing factors. Nevertheless, existing ML models hinge heavily on numeric features as inputs, which encapsulate limited information on the fatigue failure process of interest.

Understanding the dynamic response of granular shear zones under cyclic loading is fundamental to elucidating the mechanisms triggering earthquake-induced landslides, with implications for broader fields such as seismology and granular physics. Existing prediction methods struggle to accurately predict many experimental and in situ landslide observations due to inadequate consideration of the underlying physical mechanisms. The mechanisms that influence landslide dynamic triggering, a transition from static (or extremely slow creeping) to rapid runout, remain elusive.

Continuous and interrupted low cycle fatigue tests were conducted on nuclear-grade S30408 stainless steel under different stress conditions at room temperature. Vickers hardness testing and microstructure characterization were performed on the fatigue samples with different fatigue states. The evolutionary mechanism of the microstructure defects in materials under fatigue cyclic loading was discussed.
