Abstract

A methodology has been developed to predict fatigue crack propagation life of 7020 T7 and 2024 T3 aluminum alloys under constant amplitude loading interspersed with mode-I spike overload. It has been assessed by adopting adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), a novel soft-computing approach, suitable for non-linear, noisy and complex problems like fatigue. The proposed model has proved its efficiency quite satisfactorily compared to authors’ previously proposed ‘Exponential Model’, when tested on both the alloys.
