scope:

Get 20 peer-reviewed papers that will help you not only understand but also prevent fatigue and fracture. Access this new and diverse information regarding test planning, data acquisition and analysis, arranged into the following four sections:

1. Testing Planning and Performance Characterization

2. Data Acquisition, Quality Assurance, and Analysis

3. Modeling/Simulation, Interpretation, and Correlation

4. Verification, Validation, and Applications

As materials are increasingly being stretched to their limits by extreme conditions of temperature, stress, corrosive environments, and longer service life cycles, there is a rising demand to improve testing. Critical to several industries, this research aims to accelerate the revision of the existing standards and the development of new standards.
