Engineering components are routinely subjected to repetitive (fatigue) loads in service.  Under these cyclic loads, components fail at loads lower than those that would cause failure if applied statically.  Common structural discontinuities (notches) such as bolt holes, keyways, thread roots, etc., act to further reduce the life of these components.  Premature failures due to fatigue have seriously compromised both human safety and the industrial economy.  Therefore, there has been a great effort in large industrial sectors to continuously address the uncertainties in the models they use to predict the service life of their components.    The majority of components in practice are subjected to loads applied in all directions (multiaxial), for which analytical fatigue life prediction models applicable to metals are still in their evolution stage.  The development of such competent design tools has also lagged behind the development of more advanced materials such as metal matrix or fiber-reinforced composites.  These materials have many properties that are superior to metals and are therefore being sought after by large industrial sectors such as the aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure industries.  However, as a result of the lack of multiaxial fatigue design strategies, the materials are not being used to their full potential and their use is still met with reluctance in practice.    The end goal of this research program is to develop and experimentally validate fatigue analyses tools that can be used to predict the life of notched components subjected to multiaxial cyclic loading.  The research will focus on the advancement of these tools for particulate metal matrix composites and carbon fiber reinforced polymers.  The work will contribute to providing the confidence necessary for the industry to take advantage of the beneficial material properties of the composites studied by providing tools to evaluate the reliability, the safety and the service life of composite components in practice.

工程部件在使用中经常受到重复（疲劳）载荷的作用。在这些循环载荷下，部件在低于静态载荷的载荷下失效。常见的结构不连续性（缺口），如螺栓孔、键槽、螺纹根部等，由于疲劳而导致的过早失效严重危害了人类安全和工业经济。因此，大型工业部门一直在努力不断解决用于预测其部件使用寿命的模型中的不确定性。 实践中，大多数构件都承受着各个方向的载荷（多轴），金属材料的疲劳寿命预测分析模型仍处于发展阶段，这些设计工具的发展也落后于更先进的材料，如金属基体或纤维的发展。增强复合材料。这些材料具有上级金属的许多性能，因此受到诸如航空航天、汽车和基础设施行业等大型工业部门的追捧。然而，由于缺乏多轴疲劳设计策略，这些材料没有被充分利用，并且它们的使用在实践中仍然不情愿。 本研究计划的最终目标是开发和实验验证疲劳分析工具，这些工具可用于预测承受多轴循环载荷的缺口部件的寿命。本研究将集中在颗粒金属基复合材料和碳纤维增强聚合物的这些工具的进步上。这项工作将有助于为行业提供必要的信心，以利用有利的研究复合材料的材料性能，为实际应用中评估复合材料构件的可靠性、安全性和使用寿命提供工具。
