A microstructural model is presented to assess pit-to-crack transition and corrosion fatigue
strength in pitted components in different environments. The model is first validated using …

High cycle fatigue tests have been conducted for stainless steel AISI 304L. The geometry is
a thin-walled tube with a passing-through hole. The tests are axial, torsional and in-phase …

This work shows an analysis of several models of multiaxial fatigue for notches: Navarro-
Rios' model, which analyses the interaction between the crack and its associated plastic …

Fatigue failures generally initiate at notches or discontinuities. Many methods have been
proposed to predict fatigue limits at notches. Navarro and De los Rios developed a method …

This paper describes the implementation of an alternating technique that uses a short crack
growth model in combination with the Finite Element Method (FEM) to calculate fatigue …

The initiation and growth behavior of very long microstructurally short fatigue cracks formed
at circular holes is described. Very long here means cracks which are several millimeters or …

Many methods have been proposed to predict fatigue failure in the presence of notches,
among which is the Navarro-Rios model. This model is based on short-crack fracture …

The aim of this paper is to present a methodology to rapidly evaluate the strain energy
density (SED) and the notch stress intensity factor (NSIF) of a wide range of sharp V-notched …

An experimental methodology is described whereby interactions between cracks and
microstructural barriers, and the consequent non-uniform propagation rates are observed …

Microstructural fracture mechanics models provide a description of short crack growth that
accounts for the interaction between cracks and microstructural barriers. In these models the …
