An experimental technique is developed whereby a personal computer is used to control a hydraulic servo-pulser testing machine and generate random loads for loading a fracture specimen. Thus giving a control over random load generation and hence random load history. This allows for the generation of

A probabilistic analysis of the fatigue crack growth, fatigue life and reliability of a structural or mechanical component is presented on the basis of fracture mechanics and theory of random processes. The material resistance to fatigue crack growth and the time-history of the stress are assumed to
A stochastic model describing fatigue crack growth under random overload peaks is presented. A Poisson flow of overloads superimposed on a base-line constant-amplitude cyclic load is considered. Under the above assumptions the total retardation time is presented as a stochastic process governed by t
