About this book
With its combination of readability, love for details and rigor, “Fatigue and Corrosion in Metals” has become an authoritative reference work that has quickly established itself as the most comprehensive guide for fatigue and corrosion design available to date. It has been adopted by several universities as reference textbook and consulted by professional engineers and scholars worldwide.
This must-have Second Edition, completely revisited to account for advances in the decade since the previous edition was published, includes:
· A new Chapter on damage nucleation.
· A new Chapter on Very High Cycle Fatigue.
· A new Chapter on fatigue testing and fatigue S-N curve determination.
· Expanded analysis of surface treatments and inclusions effect on fatigue.
· Expanded treatment of volume process effect on fatigue.
· Expanded treatments of corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement.
In addition to these enhancements, it includes a detailed treatment of· Phenomenology and morphological aspects of fatigue.
· Surface treatments, conditions, and nonmetallic inclusions effects on fatigue.
· Stress and strain-based fatigue analysis.
· Mean stress and notch effect on fatigue.
· Cumulative damage and multiaxial fatigue.
· Probabilistic analysis application to fatigue design.
· Fatigue in welds.
· Stress corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement.
· Fracture mechanics application to fatigue and corrosion.
It serves as a valuable and needful information source on the desktop of anyone involved with fatigue and corrosion in metals.

About the author
Pietro Paolo Milella belongs to the first generation of Italian nuclear engineers. He was the director of the Analysis and Mechanical Technologies Division at ENEA/DISP, the National Italian Nuclear Authority where he was also responsible for all the Italian Nuclear Safety Research Programs in the mechanical field. He developed the Italian Design Criteria for the next generation of Nuclear Power Plants in Italy. In the ‘80s, he became adjoined professor of Machine Design at the University of Cassino, Italy. In 1995, he became adjoined General Director of the National Agency for Environmental Protection, ANPA. He wrote the books: “Meccanica della Frattura” (in Italian) and “Fatigue and Corrosion in Metals”. He is celebrating 55 years of professional activity.
