A crystallographic model is proposed which takes into account both crack-plane twist and tilt
effects on crack retardation at grain boundaries. The twist and tilt angles of the crack-plane …

This comprehensive overview of the whole field of fatigue and fracture of metallic materials
covers both the theoretical background and some of the latest experimental techniques. It …

In this paper, recent work on the effects of micro-texture on the growth behavior of short
fatigue cracks in high strength aluminum alloys (such as Al-Li 8090 alloys and AA 2026 Al …

Shot peening technology is widely used to enhance the fatigue resistance of mechanical
parts exposed to the cyclic loadings. The residual stress, grain refinement, work hardening …

The use of two micro-mechanical models for notch sensitivity and fatigue life allowed the
development of boundary conditions that would evaluate potential life improvement after …

This paper gives an overview over the micromechanical modeling approaches of short
fatigue cracks. Until now many approaches have been presented in the literature, which …

Texture or grain orientation was of crucial importance to fatigue crack propagation (FCP) in
aluminium alloys due to boundary character between neighbouring grains and crack closure …

Work hardening and the study of instability is incorporated into the description of the growth
of a crack in terms of the successive blocking of the plastic zone by slip barriers, such as …

Capturing the behavior of short cracks under fatigue conditions has become a challenge for
researchers. The early stage of crack propagation is influenced by microstructural features …
