Summary

The main objective of this issue is to bring together scientists and engineers from all over the world to talk about how to characterise, analyse, predict, and assess fatigue and fracture in structural materials and components. It will serve as a platform for discussion of current and future trends in experimental, analytical, and numerical fracture mechanics, fatigue, structural integrity assessment, failure analysis, and other related topics. Multi-scale and multi-physics approaches to fatigue modelling and analysis, as well as their applications to new materials, were given special attention.
