Fatigue Crack Initiation and Propagation
Chapitre d'ouvrage scientifique
Abstract
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 than 10^7 cycles). This chapter introduces the basic concepts of cyclic mechanical behavior, crack initiation and propagation in these different regimes.
