Abstract:A method of weak ternary interval (TI) evaluation of fatigue life is proposed in this study to reasonably evaluate the nonprobabilistic reliability considering the interval uncertainty. The conventional interval is extended into a TI by introducing an expected value, that is, a value without uncertainty, as the third parameter of the interval to deal with the deviation between the expected value and the median value of the interval. Next, the TI of fatigue life is evaluated by introducing an index of attitude … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
