About

Fatigue is a materials science and engineering concept investigating the progressive, localized, and permanent structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic or fluctuating stresses or strains, often leading to fracture below the static tensile strength. This phenomenon is critical for assessing the reliability and predicting the service life of components in demanding applications, including the structural elements within nuclear energy systems.
