Description
Part 1: Basics about fatigue phenomes and fatigue design are presented. The focus is laid on:
- Sources and types of dynamic loads, determination of representative loads, cycle counting methods,
- local concept,
- nominal and structural stress design and
- determination of stresses by using FEA
Part 2: The objective is, to teach basic knowledge about fracture mechanics and respective concepts for application. The following design methods are focused on:
- design against brittle fracture
- design against cracks and crack growth
- determination of remaining life
