Cumulative Damage and Life Prediction Models for High-Cycle Fatigue of Metals: A Review

Fatigue design of engineering structures is typically based on lifetime calculation using a cumulative damage law. The linear damage rule by Miner is the universal standard for fatigue design even though numerous experimental studies have shown its deficiencies and possible non-conservative outcomes...
