Fatigue crack growth in complex stress fields
Fatigue crack growth has been traditionally modelled using LEFM through the use of the Paris law. This requires an accurate method for stress intensity factor (K) calculation. Weight functions have been developed for one-dimensional cracks (e.g. edge and through cracks); these are functions that ena...
