Fatigue life prediction under realistic loading conditions [PDF]
The accurate modeling of the fatigue behavior of composite materials under constant amplitude (CA) cyclic stress is in itself a difficult task but when loading is of variable amplitude (VA), the situation is even more complicated since an appropriate ...

Non-local energy based fatigue life calculation method under multiaxial variable amplitude loadings [PDF]
Reliable design of industrial components against high cycle multiaxial fatigue requires a model capable of predicting both stress gradient and load type effects. Indeed, taking into account gradient effects is of prior importance for the applicability of

Modelling the role of non metallic inclusions on the anisotropic fatigue behaviour of forged steel [PDF]
Forged components are known to show high cyclic and monotonic mechanical properties. This is mainly due to a better compactness and a finer microstructure introduced by the forming process. However, this good mechanical behaviour is sometimes a source of
