International Journal of Fatigue is dedicated entirely to the full range of scientific and technological issues associated with fatigue. The scope of the journal includes the spectrum of characterization, testing, and modeling of degradation processes under cyclic loading, commonly referred to as fatigue. This includes compromise of functionality with cycling, in addition to formation of cracks and other damage phenomena. Phenomena of interest range from the atomic level to engineering structures or devices, including all classes of materials and material systems. We encourage publication of studies that combine understanding and characterization of material fatigue mechanisms with physically-based models to address future needs for more predictive fatigue mitigation and design. Before preparing their manuscript, authors are asked to consult this page for information about the standards of style and content that their manuscript is expected to reach. Authors whose manuscripts do not reach these minimum standards are more likely to have their manuscript rejected without review.
