Fatigue Life Prediction of Spot-Welded Structures: A Finite Element Analysis Approach

This study presents the effect of the spot weld and sheets thickness on the fatigue life of the of the spot-weld joints to predict the lifetime and location of the weakest spot-welds due to the variable amplitude loading conditions. A simple model was used to illustrate the technique of spot-weld fa...
