The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.2 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00004 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.08 SJR: 0.153 SNIP: 0.178 CiteScore™:: 1 H-Index: 12

ABSTRACT

In this paper, fatigue damage predictions by six models were compared with three-point bending experimental results carried out on composite materials subjected to an ergodic Gaussian and stationary random (EGSR) signal. Due to the complexity of fracture modes and their interactions, we have focused on the delamination failure mode. So, the dimensions of specimens were chosen in order to have only interlaminar delamination. All six models rely on one constant amplitude fatigue test at the load ratio r = (Fmin/Fmax) = 0.1. The first model is based on degradation of the global stiffness, while the second is based on assessing the expectation of damage defined by the Palmgreen–Miner law and the other four models studied are also based on the cumulative damage rule of Palmgreen–Miner combined with the rain flow cycle counting algorithm. The best model found is used to determine a set of data that will be used to construct an empirical model of prediction of fatigue life depending only on the average load and standard deviation of spectrum loading in addition to some material parameters and its F–N curve (load–life curve) constants.
