Fatigue Strength of Plain Concrete under Repeated Loading

Fatigue characteristics of steel-making slag concrete under compression in submerged condition

“…With regard to the fatigue of concrete, the increase in strain per cycle is often referred as strain rate. Strong negative correlations between the strain rate in the constant region and the fatigue life of concrete are reported [10,24,25]. In this study, we defined the range between 0.1 and 0.8 of n/N as the constant region, and the representative strain rates were obtained by the least-square method.…”
