Multiaxial fatigue library

Research software · Python

Collaborative FABER WG4.3 Python library and method catalogue for comparing multiaxial fatigue criteria. Current calculations use single-frequency harmonic stress cycles for plain or smooth geometries.

Multiaxial fatigue

In development; independent scientific validation remains outstanding.

Latest commit:

Record details: Multiaxial fatigue library

Access: Public repository; licence not yet selected

Repository: andreachiocca/multiaxial-fatigue

Repository status: Not archived.

Active development. Some methods are partial or require review; independent validation against published or experimental datasets remains outstanding. Variable-amplitude histories, notch gradients and constitutive plasticity are future work. The review article is in preparation.
