This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Local approaches to fatigue assessment are used to predict the structural durability of welded joints, to optimise their design and to evaluate unforeseen joint failures. This standard work provides a systematic survey of the principles and practical applications of the various methods. It covers the hot spot structural stress approach to fatigue in general, the notch stress and notch strain approach to crack initiation and the fracture mechanics approach to crack propagation. Seam-welded and spot-welded joints in structural steels and aluminium alloys are also considered.This completely reworked second edition takes into account the tremendous progress in understanding and applying local approaches which has been achieved in the last decade. It is a standard reference for designers, structural analysts and testing engineers who are responsible for the fatigue-resistant in-service behaviour of welded structures. 660 pp. Englisch.

Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Local approaches of fatigue assessment have become an indispensable design tool for the layout and dimensioning of welded structures. This book reviews the available local approaches, the hot spot structural stress approach, the notch stress and strain approach, and the fracture mechanics approach. The presentation includes spot-welded and seam welded joints in both steel and aluminum. Examples are taken from such fields as offshore engineering, shipbuilding, structural engineering, pressure vessels, and automotive engineering.
