Abstract

In this paper a review is given of the work carried out in Sweden in the area of aeronautical fatigue during the period May 2003 to May 2005. The review includes basic studies of fatigue development in metals, stress analysis and fracture mechanics, studies of crack propagation and residual strength, and testing of full-scale structures. A reference list of relevant papers issued during the period covered by the review is included.
