Metal fatigue : what it is, why it matters / Les Pook. - Dordrecht ; [London] : Springer, c2007. - xvii, 264 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. - Solid mechanics and its applications ; v. 145 . - Solid mechanics and its applications ; v. 145. .
Includes bibliographical references (p. [245]-257) and index.
Historical background -- Constant amplitude fatigue -- Variable amplitude and multiaxial fatigue -- Fatigue design -- The uncracked situation -- The cracked situation -- Fatigue crack paths -- Why metal fatigue matters -- [Appendix] A : fracture mechanics -- [Appendix] B : random load theory and RMS -- [Appendix] C : non destructive testing.
Presenting important ideas in metal fatigue, this book defines the terminology used in the field, as well as providing a brief description of its mechanisms and the basis of design against the fatigue failure of components and structures.
