We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Fatigue Testing",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release IR camera monitors engine turbines from
Cedip Infrared Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "Cedip Infrared Systems' Silver 450M IR camera is being used by Snecma, for remote noncontact fatigue testing of engine turbine blades".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Chains last longer - with no price premium from
Tsubakimoto UK: "Seventh generation ANSI standard chain employs an innovative bushing system that greatly improves internal lubrication and extends wear life by 100%".
In March 2006, we covered the news from Cedip Infrared Systems
concerning its Silver 480M
- take a look at Infra-red cooled camera for thermographic analysis
which says: "Infra-red cooled camera provides a complete acquisition and processing system for highly dynamic phenomena and high frequency periodic excitation".
Take a look also at the news release from Applied Measurements, Low-profile loadcells put airframes to the test,
as well as Stress analysis takes to the field for JCB from AV Technology,
and Bench provides range of foam testing functions from Zwick Testing Machines.
