Metal Fatigue & Fracture Mechanics Course
The metal fatigue portion of this course is designed to increase personnel understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of fatigue, fatigue failure mechanisms, compliance with regulations, fatigue management tools, and fatigue/cycle monitoring. The Fracture Mechanics (FM) portion of this course explains FM basics, including linear elastic FM (LEFM), elastic-plastic FM (EPFM), and limit load analyses, as well as their application to the nuclear industry. Procedures for flaw evaluation, as outlined in ASME Section XI, can be combined with the concepts taught in this course to give a thorough understanding of flaw evaluation criteria. Course topics include:
