This book is an attempt to provide a uni? ed methodology to derive models for fatigue life.
This includes SN,?-N and crack propagation models. This is not a conventional book aimed …

This comprehensive overview of the whole field of fatigue and fracture of metallic materials
covers both the theoretical background and some of the latest experimental techniques. It …

The use of two micro-mechanical models for notch sensitivity and fatigue life allowed the
development of boundary conditions that would evaluate potential life improvement after …

High-resolution X-ray tomography with synchrotron radiation has been used to obtain
observations of the early stages of fatigue crack nucleation in an austempered ductile cast …

Abstract The Navarro–Rios model was used to investigate the fatigue resistance of AISI304
stainless steel treated by ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) in this paper. The finite element …

Fatigue lives of as-polished and shot peened specimens were predicted using the original
Navarro-Rios model (monotonic damage model) and a more recent version of the same …

High and low cycle fatigue tests performed on shot peened Inconel 718 can result in
different crack initiation locations and mechanisms as well as in a wide range of fatigue lives …

Predicting the fretting fatigue crack propagation is complex and uncertain. It implies to
consider stress gradient and short crack behavior. To address this challenge former in situ …

A brief overview of studies on the influence of inclusions on the mechanical properties of
structural materials was performed. The studies, where analytical dependences were …

An increasing number of engineering components are expected to have fatigue life in the
range of 107-1010 load cycles. Some examples of such components are found in airplanes …
