Paris' Law Parameters Estimation for Fatigue Crack Prediction of An Aluminum Alloy Plate Under Cyclic Loading
Download2022-06-01
Baral, Talaz, Afshari, Sajad Saraygord, Liang, Xihui
Fatigue-induced crack initiation and growth are common in cyclically loaded structures. Crack reduces the structures' strength and increases the risk of failure. Engineers have been using degradation models like Paris' law to relate crack length to the magnitude of the applied load to schedule...
