Contains the proceedings of the First International \ Conference on Fatigue Damage of Materials, held in Toronto, Canada, July 14-16, \ 2003.\ Engineering materials are routinely subjected to fatigue \ loading in a wide variety of applications in aeronautical, automotive, nuclear \ plant, petroleum and transportation industries. The extensive use of engineering \ materials over such a range of applications plus the cost involved in fatigue \ failure of materials and structures has resulted in...

A July 2003 conference brought together researchers and engineers to review recent advances in the development of methods for predicting fatigue performance of materials and structures. Papers from the conference focus on fatigue testing and analysis methods, analytical and numerical criteria for crack growth rate, crack closure, life prediction, design of engineering components subject to fatigue loading, and other related topics. Coverage is broad ad includes a range of materials and structures as well as different approaches to the fatigue analysis problem. Contemporary fatigue crack initiation and propagation methods are discussed, and problems in the areas of loading spectrum, thermo-mechanical fatigue and creep, and multiaxial loading are discused from both the analytical and experimental points of view. There is no subject index. The US office of WIT Press is Computational Mechanics. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
