Strength of Materials Aims and scope

The aggregate model of the evolutionary equation for fatigue damage accumulation in the structural materials of reactor vessels suffering from low- and high-cycle fatigue is presented. The reliability of the model is substantiated by comparing numerical results and experimental data.
