Notched multiaxial fatigue of Al7050-T7451: on the need for an equivalent process zone size

The aim of this work is to investigate stress gradient effects on the fatigue life estimation of notched Al 7050-T7451 specimens under combined torsion and push-pull loading conditions. Initially, simple push-pull and torsion fatigue tests in plain and notched specimens were independently conducted...
