We assume that a cell phone will be dropped. Defects exist in structures. But…neither break immediately. To measure and simulate structural strength and damage caused by crack growth, and to develop and do research on evaluation techniques—these are our themes.
Equivalent stress distribution under low-cycle fatigue evaluation under cyclic torsional loading
