Fatigue tests have been carried out on edge notched mild steel specimens of various thicknesses. Results are presented showing the effect of thickness on crack initiation, crack growth and the geometry and fractography of the fracture surface. It was found that both crack initiation and crack growth

Double edge notched axial compression specimens taken from thick welded steel joints have been used to grow fatigue cracks under pulsating compressive loads at mean stresses up to 55% of that needed for general yielding. The redistribution of residual stresses during specimen preparation and during
