JAMES, M. N.. Optimising the fatigue resistance of materials. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1992, vol.8, pp.34-42. ISSN 2309-8988.

"Fatigue and fracture are complex phenomena which are much affected by design detailing, surface finish and environment. Nonetheless, there is some scope for increasing fatigue resistance by material 'engineering', through correct selection, processing and heat treatment, and this paper presents some information on how this may be achieved in component and structural applications and why, in mechanistic terms, it works."
