Crack Initiation and Propagation Fatigue Life of Ultra High-Strength Steel Butt Joints

The division of the total fatigue life into different stages such as crack initiation and propagation is an important issue in regard to an improved fatigue assessment especially for high-strength welded joints. The transition between these stages is fluent, whereas the threshold between the two pha...
