Research goal of the present monograph is the establishment of an efficient engineering approach, which will include straightforward but accurate simulation mod

The European Conference on Residual Stresses (ECRS) series is the leading European forum for scientific exchange on internal and residual stresses in materials.

This work presents a design approach that links fatigue resistance of cast steel component to permissible defect sizes. It is based on fractures mechanics, is i

The ability to quantify residual stresses induced by welding processes through experimentation or numerical simulation has become, today more than ever, of stra
