Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the fatigue and fracture behavior of engineering materials and structures. Research investigates material performance under cyclic loading, including fatigue life prediction, crack initiation and propagation, and damage evolution. Studies examine various materials such as asphalt mixtures, polymers, metals, alloys, concrete, and rock, often considering factors like material composition, microstructure, defects, and environmental conditions.
