It is well known to engineers that fatigue accounts for a majority of structural failures. In plain and reinforced concrete structures, fatigue may lead to excessive deformations, excessive crack widths, de-bonding of reinforcement and rupture of the reinforcement or matrix leading to structural col
In this work, an analytical model is proposed for fatigue crack propagation in plain concrete based on population growth exponential law and in conjunction with principles of dimensional analysis and self-similarity. This model takes into account parameters such as loading history, fracture toughnes
