Description
Summary:[...]during the design current practice, in order to fill the knowledge gap about the ability in predicting the failures, structural components are usually oversized. [...]the scientific community is aimed to develop analytical, empirical, and semiempirical models able to predict the failure mechanisms under different loading conditions and nondestructive examinations, inspections, and evaluations which are widely performed to achieve all possible information about the failure mechanisms in order to develop predicting models. [...]thanks to the current computational power, multiscale numerical models are developed in order to simulate the behaviour of components, assemblies, and whole structures under both real and critical loading conditions, before proceeding to the manufacturing.
