Notes:
Three-dimensional cohesive zone model was used to simulate the fatigue crack growth of aweld specimen. Damage accumulation was accounted for using a constitutive model. A surface alongwhich the fatigue crack would grow was assumed along the symmetric plane of the specimen and thecohesive elements were applied on the surface. Tensile tests of weld and parent specimens weresimulated by the finite element method. Results of fatigue crack growth for the weld and parentspecimens were compared and the effect of changing a constitutive parameter on the fatigue crackgrowth behavior was also checked
