The fatigue life of MIG welded cruciform joint failing from root (LOP) region was successfully predicted using new fracture mechanics equations. These equations were developed by combining Paris' law and AK~-endurance equation and incorporating an integral factor (Ip), obtained by integrating Paris'
Discrepancies in fatigue crack growth rate and threshold values observed in different specimen geometries are analyzed and discussed. To explain the discrepancies, a phenomenological approach is suggested going out from the assumption of linear elastic fracture mechanics. To this aim, two-parameter
high temperature creep, fatigue and creep-fatigue interaction, several authors have recently attempted to express crack growth rate in terms of stress intensity factor K, = a& u8, where a is the equivalent crack length as the sum of the initial notch length a, and the actual crack length a\*, that i
