Fatigue life assessment of thin-walled welded joints under non-proportional load-time histories by the shear stress rate integral approach

Fatigue life tests under constant and variable amplitude loadings were performed on the tube-tube thin-walled welded specimens made of magnesium (AZ31 and AZ61) alloys. The tests included pure axial, pure torsional and combined in-phase and out-of-phase loadings with the load ratio  RR " &qu...
