FASTRAN II

Abstract

Fatigue Crack Growth Structural Analysis (FASTRAN II) predicts growth of crack as function of history of cyclic loads until either crack attains desired size or failure occurs. Based on plasticity-induced closure behavior of cracks in metallic materials and accounts for such load-interaction effects as retardation and acceleration, under variable-amplitude loading. Written in standard FORTRAN 77. Other versions available upon request.
