Fatigue Crack Growth Under Random Overloads with Retardation

A Monte Carlo simulation scheme is presented to study the behavior of fatigue crack propagation under random overloads. Overloads of Poisson flow with uniform distribution on base-line constant-amplitude cyclic loads are considered. The retardation effect of overload on fatigue crack growth is taken...
