Traditionally fatigue, fracture, damage mechanics are predictions are Based on empirical curve fitting models Based on experimental data.
This collection of manuscripts is about using Entropy for "Fatigue, Fracture, Failure Prediction and.
Because, Entropy generation in a material can be calculated from the fundamental equation of thematerial.
However, when Entropy is used as the metric for degradation of the material, the modeling process becomes physics Based rather than empirical modeling.
