Role of Fatigue and Creep in Structural Damage: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Fatigue and creep are two critical degradation mechanisms that significantly influence the structural integrity and longevity of engineering materials. These phenomena arise due to different loading and environmental conditions but often coexist in various industrial applications, leading to severe material degradation over time. Fatigue primarily results from cyclic loading, where repeated stress variations induce microstructural damage and crack initiation, ultimately causing catastrophic failure. Conversely, creep occurs under sustained stress at …
