Underlying ideas…
No two weldments are alike!The fatigue of weldments is a complex, non-linearproblem.Weldment fatigue life is strongly dependent upon initial conditions.Models help us understand what may happen and how to control it!Fatigue is caused by the fluctuation of local stresses and strains.There is nothing more practical than a good theory!

What to do?Reduce the local stresses and strains.
Redesign componentReduce stress concentrations.
Avoid lousy weld geometries.Make the weld toes nice.Control weld distortions.
Avoid tensile residual stresses.Avoid high strength materials.
Calculate, don’t guess.Use fatigue life improvement techniques.
