In the fatigue design of metallic components using the safe-life approach, fatigue crack initiation as a development of slip systems at the nanoscale, followed by microstructurally short crack growth, is critical for the onset of structural failure.

Influence of woven ply degradation on fatigue crack growth in thin notched composites under tensile loading [PDF]
This paper deals with the fatigue of the through the-thickness crack propagation in thin notched composite laminates made of two glass woven plies. It highlights the different crack growths between warp and weft directions of the woven ply.

Crack initiation criteria in fretting fatigue
Abstract This paper is a description of a series of fretting fatigue tests on an Al/Cu alloy in which the contact size was varied while the other relevant parameters were held constant. The fretting fatigue life was found to be infinite below a certain critical contact width.

Fatigue Crack Initiation and Propagation [PDF]
The resistance of metal alloys to fatigue can be classified into four major regimes: low-cycle fatigue (or short life), limited resistance (between 10^5 and 10^6 cycles), high-cycle fatigue (between 10^6 and 10^7 cycles) and gigacycle (more than10^7 cycles).

High-resolution 3D weld toe stress analysis and ACPD method for weld toe fatigue crack initiation [PDF]
Weld toe fatigue crack initiation is highly dependent on the local weld toe stress-concentrating geometry including any inherent flaws. These flaws are responsible for premature fatigue crack initiation (FCI) and must be minimised to maximise the fatigue
