International Conference/Workshop on Small Fatigue Cracks (2nd) Held in Santa Barbara, California on 5-10 January 1986.

Abstract

This document provides a description and technical summary of the Second International Engineering Foundation Conference/Workshop on Small Fatigue Cracks, held in Santa Barbara, California, 5-10 January, 1986. It provides a current assessment of the pertinent issues with respect to definition, differences in behavior compared to long cracks, environmental effects, driving forces for small crack extension, intrinsic thresholds, and the application of small crack methodology to life prediction and alloy design. A listing of the conference participants and the technical program are appended to the report.
