Fatigue is one of the main causes of failures as well as mechanical fractures in structural details made of aluminium alloys under cyclic loading, where the materials (during the crack growth process) are subject to the ...

This work provides a numerical and experimental investigation of fatigue crack growth behavior in steel weldments including crack closure effects and their coupled interaction with weld strength mismatch. A central ...

This work deals with the determination of crack openings in 2D reinforced concrete structures using the Finite Element Method with a smeared rotating crack model or an embedded crack model In the smeared crack model, the ...
