This article is a review of models for predicting ultra-low cycle fatigue life. In the article, the
life prediction models are divided into three types:(1) microscopic ductile fracture models …

Various engineering systems such as naval and aerial vehicles, offshore structures, and
mechanical components of motorized systems, are exposed to fatigue failures due to …

Most of real-world structural components that undergo cyclic loading feature multiaxial
fatigue. When the cyclic loading involves also significant plastic deformation, multiaxial low …

A new criterion is proposed to simulate the initiation of ductile fracture due to Ultra-Low
Cycle Fatigue (ULCF). Building on previous research, the new fracture criterion broadens …

An innovative grooved gusset plate damper (GGPD) is further developed in this study by
conducting cyclic tests and numerical analysis. The proposed damper is installed in X …

Performance-based wind engineering (PBWE) is undergoing a period of rapid development
with numerous procedures and frameworks being proposed over the past few years …

Performance-based engineering methodologies allow for the design of more reliable
seismic resistant structures. Nonetheless, to implement this technique, an accurate …

In order to study the ultra-low cycle fatigue (UCLF) behavior of austenitic stainless steel,
uniaxial tensile tests and cyclic loading tests of round bar specimens and notched …

Aluminium alloy frames are emerging in structural engineering, however there is a clear
need for the study on their structural behaviour under earthquakes. Towards satisfying this …

The application of stainless steel in structures is increasing recently, but few related seismic
studies have been conducted. The purpose of this paper is to study the ductile fracture …
