Metal Fatigue Analysis Handbook: Practical problem-solving techniques for computer-aided engineering

Yung-Li Lee; Barkey, Dr M E; Hong-Tae Kang Dr; 2012

The Metal Fatigue Analysis Handbook presents state-of-the-art fatigue theories and technologies alongside more commonly used practices with working examples included to provide an informative, practical toolkit of fatigue analysis. Written to bridge the technology gap between academia and industry and prepared by an expert team with extensive industrial, research and professorial experience, the book will help you to understand why fatigue happens and how to model, simulate, design and test for it with this practical, industry-focused reference. It prepares the reader to design with fatigue in mind to meet durability requirements, to model and to simulate and test with different materials in different scenarios. Focusing on theories commonly used in the automotive industry, it is also an ideal resource in other disciplines such as aerospace engineering, civil engineering and offshore engineering.
