Fatigue limit

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic types of the approaches of fatigue strength and service life assessment based on local stress and strain parameters are at first described for nonwelded structures: fatigue phenomena, influence parameters, objectives of the assessment, global and local approaches and historical development.

TL;DR: The applications of aluminium matrix composite materials are growing continuously in the field of automotive and aerospace because of their superior physical, mechanical and tribological properties as compared to base alloy as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of selected post processing treatments on the high cycle fatigue response is assessed for the biomedical titanium Grade 23 (aka Ti-6Al-4V ELI) AMed via selective laser melting (SLM) technology.

TL;DR: In this paper, a life prediction model in the field of high-cycle fatigue is presented, which applies in the case of constant amplitude multiaxial proportional and non-proportional loading.

TL;DR: In this paper, a threshold for fatigue crack propagation as a function of crack length is defined from a depth given by the position d of the strongest microstructural barrier to crack propagation, which defines the plain fatigue limit.
