An overview of fatigue failure and how it affects mechanical systems. How FEA software enables engineers to predict fatigue failure points on structural designs, before the manufacturing process. From ...
Mechanical parts are more frequently subjected to cyclic loads than solely static loads. Fatigue issues are commonly observed in turbine blades, aerospace components, locomotive systems, large ...
A few guidelines show how to correctly use FEA stresses to find reasonable margins of safety. Although finite-element analysis has become an indispensable part of engineering, a few users knock it ...
The contents have been developed as course notes for training courses presented to engineers who need to apply fatigue knowledge in engineering design, fatigue testing and failure investigation.
