Prediction of Fatigue Crack Initiation under Variable Amplitude Loading: Literature Review
Metallic materials are widely employed in engineering constructions, and one of the most common failure mechanisms in metals is fatigue failure. Even though metal fatigue has been studied for almost 160 years, many problems remain unsolved.

The Strain energy density to estimate lifetime of notched components subjected to variable amplitude fatigue loading [PDF]
In the present paper, the approach based on the strain energy density (SED) averaged over a structural volume is reformulated to estimate the lifetime of notched components subjected to variable amplitude (VA) uniaxial fatigue loading.

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

PE-HD fatigue damage accumulation under variable loading based on various damage models
Despite numerous studies on fatigue of polymer materials under variable loading, there is little work on highdensity polyethylene (PE-HD). In this context, an experimental analysis for determining the fatigue strength of PE-100, under constant and ...

Comparative study of multiaxial fatigue methods applied to welded joints in marine structures [PDF]
Marine structures are particularly prone to action of waves, winds and currents with stochastically varying composition, intensities and directions. Therefore, resultant stresses may cause multiaxial fatigue in specific welded structural details. For the

Shortcuts in multiple dimensions: the multiaxial racetrack filter [PDF]
Filtering techniques have been proposed for multiaxial load histories, usually aiming to filter out non-reversals, i.e. sampling points that do not constitute a reversal in any of its stress or strain components. However, the path between two reversals

A statistically self-consistent fatigue damage accumulation model including load sequence effects under spectrum loading [PDF]
A probabilistic methodology is proposed to evaluate fatigue damage accumulation and fatigue lives of specimens under variable amplitude loading. With probabilistic modifications in the present model, the calculative consistency is achieved between ...
