Stochastic fatigue crack growth : an experimental study

This thesis experimentally investigates the statistics (mean and variance) of the fatigue-cycle-dependent evolutions of both the crack tip front penetration's distribution function and the microscopic growth rate's distribution function, as a fatigue crack propagates to final fracture. A n...
