Fatigue investigation of complex weldments by the means of the local strain energy density approach

The paper investigates the use of an energetic approach based on the strain energy density failure criteria to predict the fatigue life of welded joints in aluminum alloy. The cited criterion has already been proved valid to assess the failure of components in presence of sharp and blunt notches, an...
