The effect of residual stresses arising from laser shock peening on fatigue crack growth [PDF]
, 2010 Residual stresses have in the past been introduced to manipulate growth rates and shapes of cracks under cyclic loads. Previously, the effectiveness of shot peening in retarding the rate of fatigue crack growth was experimentally studied.

A numerical study of crack shielding and deflection under extensive plasticity [PDF]
, 2009 Experimentally observed crack deflection events in multi-layered material systems, occurring even under pure mode-I loading, are here simulated and explained through elasto-plastic finite element modelling.

Evaluation of the intrinsic crack growth rates of weld joints [PDF]
, 2011 A method is presented for evaluating weld intrinsic fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) by excluding the influence of residual stresses. The method is potentially useful for predicting crack growth lives of structural components using measured FCGR data ...

Introduction of a fretting-fatigue mapping concept: Development of a dual crack nucleation - crack propagation approach to formalize fretting-fatigue damage [PDF]
, 2009 Fretting-fatigue induced by combined localized cyclic contact motion and external bulk fatigue loadings may result in premature and dramatic failure of the contacting components.

Size effects on residual stress and fatigue crack growth in friction stir welded 2195-T8 aluminium - Part I: Experiments [PDF]
, 2011 Residual stress fields were measured in three different sizes of Compact-Tension (C(T)) and eccentrically loaded single edge notch (ESE(T)) specimens containing transverse or longitudinal welds. The effect of size on residual stress profiles was studied.

Interaction between Edge-Crack and Aggregate in Silicate-Based Composite
Transactions of the VŠB: Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series, 2017 The paper deals with investigation of the interaction between an edge-crack and an aggregate in a silicate-based composite, because adding of aggregates into basic matrix material can improve the fracture mechanical properties of the material ...
