Material fatigue is generally considered the most-common failure mode for welded parts and structures subject to dynamic loads and stresses. The two previous articles in this series delved into the ...

Fatigue life is a key concern in welded-steel frames for mobile equipment that experience large and varying dynamic loads. For engineers who design welded-steel structures subject to dynamic loading, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract ABSTRACT In this paper, the fatigue behavior of laser welds in lap-shear specimens of non-galvanized SAE J2340 300Y high strength low alloy ...

An effective fatigue driving stress is proposed to predict the failure of spot welds under cyclic combined loading conditions. The effective fatigue driving stress is obtained based on the Mises yield ...

This is a plug, or Rosette weld. This month's column covers many other commonly used weld types. Q.I've been in this business for many years, and there doesn't seem to be much agreement about the ...
