Fatigue in a class of viscoelastic solids

We study fatigue (weakness induced by cyclic loading) in a viscoelastic body described by a generalization of the Kelvin-Voigt constitutive relation, employing a novel damage initiation criterion developed by Alagappan et al. [13-15]. The main premise is that damage is a consequence of the inhomogen...
