We present a compelling finite element framework to model hydrogen assisted fatigue by means of a hydrogen- and cycle-dependent cohesive zone formulation. The model builds upon: (i) appropriate environmental boundary conditions, (ii) a…
Crack initiation governs high cycle fatigue life and is susceptible to microstructural details. While corresponding microstructure-sensitive models are available, their validation is difficult. We propose a validation framework where a…
