On the evaluation of cyclic behaviour for a mechanical structure under variable mechanical and thermal loads

This thesis investigates and develops computational procedures for the assessment of the structural integrity and lifetime of mechanical structures subjected to cyclic variable loads. The Linear Matching Method (LMM), which has been used in design and life assessment calculations for a number of yea...
