This book deals with practical problems in structural design and service inspection. It explains how to cope with likely future problems relating to fatigue design of welded structures. When correctly understood and applied, models of fatigue behaviour are very useful tools in engineering assessment. Details of how to use calculation tools on an Excel spreadsheet are included to give hands-on experience. These spreadsheets are so detailed that they can be used for realistic industrial cases.

Le livre traite de la bifurcation de fissure sous chargement statique et de la propagation de fissure sous chargement de fatigue. L'objectif principal de ce travail est d'etablir une loi de bifurcation et de propagation de fissure en milieu elasto-plastique sous chargement monotone ainsi qu'une loi de propagation de fissure adaptee au milieu mecanique retenu lorsqu'il s'agit d'un chargement de fatigue. En combinant les essais experimentaux et les simulations numeriques, le livre propose une methode pour evaluer, sous conditions statiques, la bifurcation et le debut de propagation de fissure...

This book presents recent advances related to the following two topics: - how mechanical fields close to material or geometrical singularities such as cracks can be determined; - how failure criteria can be established according to the singularity degrees related to these discontinuities. Concerning the determination of mechanical fields close to a crack tip, the first part of the book presents most of the traditional methods in order to classify them into two major categories. The first is based on the stress field, such as the Airy function, and the second resolves the...
