Abstract

The objectives of this project are as follows: 1) Collect experimental data on identifying mathematical models for predicting low-cycle fatigue (LCF) and ultra-low cycle (ULC) fatigue behavior in metallic structures; 2) Generate data from experimental testing to be used for predicting LCF and ULCF response of bridge girders; and 3) Develop a framework for fracture predictions.
