A previous review provided perspectives on the mechanisms of fatigue crack initiation (Sangid, IJF 2013). In this review, the primary emphasis is describing the mechanisms of fatigue crack propagation, with emphasis on microstructurally small fatigue crack (MSFC) growth. The behavior of long cracks is well documented in the fatigue literature and informs damage tolerant life assessment strategies that have been employed for the last 50+ years. For MSFCs, the local microstructure dictates the crack behavior, which is the focus of this review paper. In engineering components, most of the fatigue lifetime is spent in the MSFC growth regime, hence necessitating the importance to describe the mechanisms governing MSFC growth. For the microstructure immediately surrounding a small crack, the irreversible dislocation processes, stress state, strain localization, micromechanical fatigue predictive metrics, and environmental considerations are discussed. Moreover, this review is timely due to recent advancements in experimental characterization approaches that can quantify the grain and sub-grain level total strains and lattice strains (and associated stresses) near the crack tip and micromechanical modeling to predict fatigue propagation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14112,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Fatigue","volume":"197 ","pages":"Article 108928"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143678363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study proposes a cross-material adaptive framework that innovatively fuses dynamic loading sequence features with material properties through an attention-based mechanism. The framework employs lightweight Temporal Convolutional Networks (TCN) for temporal feature extraction while considering frequency-domain features, and incorporates both static and cyclic material properties as structured inputs. The attention-based fusion mechanism enables adaptive integration of temporal and material features, enhancing the model’s ability to capture complex interactions between loading conditions and material characteristics. To validate this approach, a multiaxial fatigue dataset comprising 499 data points was established across six major categories of metallic materials. The model’s performance underwent rigorous evaluation using hierarchical nested cross-validation, while key features were identified through SHAP analysis and recursive feature elimination. Results demonstrate that the proposed unified model exhibits robust predictive performance, with TCN showing superior stability and efficiency compared to other temporal feature extraction methods. Furthermore, the study explores cross-material prediction, revealing that fine-tuning with a small proportion of new material data can significantly enhance prediction accuracy.

Firstly, sweep frequency and resonance fatigue tests of fuel piping system are conducted to determine the resonance frequencies, resonance strain responses and corresponding fatigue lives. The accuracy and effectiveness of the finite element model, as well as previously established fatigue life models for the components of the piping system, are then validated through deterministic modal and implicit dynamic analysis.

The novelty of this method lies in the use of the CV-Voronoi method as a sequential sampling approach for constructing a global Kriging surrogate model, with the DC strategy employed to reduce the complexity of Kriging model. Finally, the DC-CV-Voronoi-KSM method is adopted to conduct reliability analysis on the resonance fatigue of the fuel piping system, yielding the distribution of resonance responses and the load cycle-failure probability curve, which provides significant guidance for the application of fuel piping systems on aero engines.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14112,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Fatigue","volume":"197 ","pages":"Article 108912"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143601326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
