Fatigue Simulation of Human Cortical Bone using Non-Homogeneous Finite Element Models to Examine the Importance of Sizing Factors on Damage Laws
… the problem. It has also been suggested that the volume size of the element will affect the fatigue behavior. This is called a stressed volume effect. In this thesis non-homogeneous finite element models were used to examine the effects of "sizing factors" on damage laws in fatigue simulations. …

Designing against failures resulting from static and time-varying loading in thick-walled components made of ductile cast iron
… probabilistic approaches, the concept of Highly Stressed Volume and local fatigue criteria. Furthermore, multiaxial fatigue is explored through volumetric Strain Energy Density approaches, with particular emphasis on meanstresses and out-of-phase loadings. Simplified frameworks are presented for …
