DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2020.105633
Abstract: Abstract The failure of micron-scale metallic components presents significant variability as a result of their size being comparable to microstructural length scales. Indeed, these components do not represent the bulk of the material but correspond… read more here.
