Course Objectives		To understand the crack initiation and growth mechanism in various engineering materials To predict fracture behavior and understanding failure mechanisms in engineering materials Understanding the fatigue damage and analysis To study modes of loading, low cycle and high cycle fatigue To investigate multiaxial fatigue loading anaylsis
Course Description		The course covers the fundamentals of Engineering Fracture Mechanics & Fatigue. The concepts of estimation of the endurance and failure mechanism of aerospace applications of structural components will be studied. From this perspective the course will have a content as, crack growth and fracture mechanisms. failures that triggered the birth of fracture mechanics, modes of loading investigation of linear elastic and elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (LEFM and EPFM), low cycle fatigue (LCF) and high cycle fatigue (HCF).
