    Load Ratio Estimation Through Striation Height and Spacing Analysis of an Aerospace Al Alloy 7475-T7351

    It is well known that striation spacing may be related to the crack growth rate, da/dN, through Paris equation, as well as the maximum and minimum loads under service loading conditions. These loads define the lo...

    Evaluating the berkovitz method to predict fatigue loads in mechanical failure investigations

    This article evaluates a proposed analytical-experimental methodology by which the fatigue load levels leading to failure of structural components is inferred. The so-called Berkovitz method is recognized to d...

    On the relation between micro- and macroscopic fatigue crack growth rates in aluminum alloy AMS 7475-T7351

    This paper discusses the relationship between striation spacing, i.e., the microscopic crack propagation rate, as measured in postmortem fractographic inspection of fatigue fractured surfaces, and the macrosco...
