Data-driven algorithm for real-time fatigue life prediction of structures with stochastic parameters

Fatigue crack growth analysis using extended finite element method (XFEM) is an efficient way to predict the residual life of structures; however, when the structure parameters vary stochastically, it will be very hard to make accurate predictions. To bridge this research gap, this work proposed a data-driven learning algorithm to improve the prediction capacity of fatigue life by considering stochastic parameters of structures. In this new...
