The focus of this book is damage assessment and fatigue life evaluation of steel structures and components using the S-N approach. The main study areas included are, very high cycle fatigue, full range S-N curves, nondestructive methods for developing full range S-N curves, effects of corrosion in full range S-N curves and fatigue damage assessment procedures. It describes simplified approaches for evaluating fatigue damage using analytical methods developed from existing theories, empirical methods and experiments. Therefore, the book will be useful for researchers, engineers and designers...
