Description

This workshop introduces concept of fatigue, fatigue mechanisms, loading aspects, material aspects of fatigue and considerations in testing and simulation. The Workshop aims to cover the detailed knowledge on theoretical and simulation aspects of stress based and strain-based fatigue life calculations; also extends to calculate the effect of manufacturing parameters like residual stress, surface finish on fatigue life.

Workshop aims to give introduction to thermo-mechanical and creep fatigue, vibrational fatigue, weld fatigue aspects.

On the loading front it will cover bi-axial and multi-axial fatigues, temperature dependent, time dependent loading aspects are covered.
