The fatigue process is analyzed theoretically by studying the interaction between a macroscopic crack and continuously distributed microdamage near the crack-tips. A mode I loading case is studied, using a Dugdale crack model. The results show good agreement with Paris' law for fatigue crack propaga
A simple methodology to predict crack initiation life is described in the fatigue damage assessment of metallic structures typically used in ground vehicle industry. A phenomenological constitutive model is integrated with a notch stress-strain analysis method and local loads under general multiaxia
The present work presents the contribution of various experimental techniques to study the low-cycle fatigue damage micromechanisms in a duplex stainless steel at room temperature. Surface damage observations are performed in real-time with an in situ microscopic device during a low-cycle fatigue te
Building on the local approach to fracture, a framework for finite element simulations of damage development during metal forming is presented. Its application to the fabrication of a food-can lid demonstrates the capabilities, but also the limitations of the framework. One such limitation, the phen
