    Course Objectives
    A review of classical and modern methods of fatigue life prediction and physical process therein. Primary
    emphasis relates to metallic materials. Students will be challenged to develop both analytical and practical
    skills in fatigue analysis. Emphasis will be placed on fatigue analysis for materials in extreme
    environments.

    Goals
    1. Review and extend the basics of design against fatigue failure;
    2. Learn the microstructural aspects that lead to fatigue damage;
    3. Apply advanced mathematical theories to characterize and predict fatigue behavior;

    Topics Covered
    Historical Context, Design and Testing, Microstructure, Stress-life,
    Strain-life, Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM), Notches,
    Variable Amplitude Loading, Environmental Fatigue, Multiaxial
    Fatigue, Weld Fatigue, Contact Fatigue, Statistical Considerations

    Cheating

    All-scholastic activities must be completed individually (unless noted in writing). Students are expected to
    be above reproach in all-scholastic activities. Students who engage in scholastic dishonesty are subject to
    disciplinary penalties, including the possibility of failure in the course and dismissal from the university.
    Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the submission for
    credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person, taking an
    examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student, or the attempt to
    commit such acts (Regents= Rules and Regulations, Part One, Chapter VI, Section 3, Subsection 3.2,
    Subdivision 3.22). Scholastic dishonesty harms the individual, all students, and the integrity of the
    university; policies on scholastic dishonesty will be strictly enforced. If there is evidence that you have
    cheated, the evidence will be submitted to the Office of Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution with the
    recommendation of Expulsion from the University.

    Attendance

    If a student misses ANY assignment due to university related duty, serious illness, or family emergency a
    makeup assignment may be arranged. Written proof must be provided along with contact information for
    verification. The instructor MUST be notified of an absence PRIOR to the absence.

    Disability and Accommodations


    If you have a disability and need classroom accommodations, please contact The Center for
    Accommodations and Support Services (CASS) at 747-5148, or by email to [email protected], or visit their
    office located in UTEP Union East, Room 106. For additional information, please visit the CASS website
