Many multiaxial fatigue models have been developed and need to be experimentally validated. This work describes the load control mechanism of a low-cost electromechanical multiaxial fatigue testing machine, which applies variable axial and torsional loads. A load cell interconnected to the motor control system was manufactured and instrumented with extensometers. For the axial load, a four-bar mechanism coupled to a power screw was designed to apply alternating axial loads, thus ensuring a higher load frequency and preservation of the motor, which will not need to alternate its direction of rotation. The machine’s control system, focused on out-phase loading, is based on the data sent by the load cell and pulse encoders per degree for each motor, ensuring good accuracy in applied loads. Tests were carried out to check the system’s response, in which it was possible to apply load curves of torque and axial force in different phase shift angle. Therefore, several existing multiaxial fatigue models can be tested with good reliability.","PeriodicalId":18260,"journal":{"name":"Materia-rio De Janeiro","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135502023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

X-ray fluorescence analysis indicated that Nano-Silica treatment resulted in the highest oxide content, transforming absorbed elements effectively. The chloride penetration test demonstrated that Ca(OH)2 treatment exhibited the lowest charge passed, suggesting minimal chloride penetration, while NaOH and KOH treatments showed higher charge passed. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis provided visual evidence of structural changes and material depositions. Calcium Hydroxide treatment reduced porosity, Sodium Hydroxide, and Potassium Hydroxide treatments displayed distinct particle distributions, and Nano Silica treatment led to the formation of hair-like crystal structures. These findings help to understand the microstructure and composition of cement mortar specimens after various treatments. The nano-silica electrolyte appeared as a viable choice for electro-kinetic therapy, whereas Ca(OH)2 treatment stated the potential to reduce chloride penetration in mortar specimens.
