Numerical simulation of fatigue crack growth in welded joints is not well represented in the
literature, especially from the point of view of material heterogeneity in a welded joint. Thus …

Fatigue crack growth through different welded joint regions was investigated, in terms of
welded joint geometry and fatigue crack position. In the first phase of investigation …

In this paper, the results of determining the Paris law coefficients, C and m, are presented,
based on the experimental data obtained by three-point bending testing of 8 welded joint …

There is a growing demand in the industrial sector for the use of high-strength structural
steels (HSSSs), which can achieve a significant weight reduction in structures. These …

Thesis presents a study of the fatigue life of welded steel tubes made of API J55 steel, using
the parameters of the fracture mechanics obtained on the basis of experimental research. At …

Total structural life analysis methodology, applicable to actual engineering structures, is
presented in this paper. It is demonstrated on the case of special purpose hydraulic press …

Sažetak This research will show the analytical way of determining the remaining life of a
welded joint with a fatigue crack initiated in its heat affected zone. The calculation will be …

Fatigue behaviour of welded joints is investigated, in terms of welded joint geometry and the
fatigue crack position. It is based on previous work which involved numerical simulation of …

This paper examines leakage and damages of steam and provides an overview of NDT
testing in order to determine the cause of steam lines failure in power plants and heating …

The most important characteristics for service safety of welded joints are those describing
crack initiation and growth caused by variable loading. Crack initiation and growth caused …
