About the Journal
No Article Publication Charge (APC)
The aim of “Journal of Design Against Fatigue” is to publish papers dealing with various aspects of fatigue and design option to ensure satisfactory fatigue behavior and life of materials and components. Design Against Fatigue is an OPEN ACCESS journal. All articles are published under a Creative Commons (CC BY) license. It means unlimited use and reuse of articles, giving credit to the authors. Published articles are made immediately available worldwide under an open access license. All manuscripts will be initially checked for plagiarism and then peer-reviewed by qualified reviewers. Peer-review is a single-blind assessment with at least two independent reviewers, followed by a final acceptance/rejection decision by the Editor-in-Chief or another academic editor approved by the Editor-in-Chief. The papers shall be written entirely in English. JDAF follows COPE’s procedures for dealing with potentially unethical behavior by authors, reviewers, or editors. Contributions are welcome which address analytical, computational and experimental studies of all materials. Topics include, but are not limited to:
Effect of manufacturing process on Fatigue life
Fatigue of additive manufactured components
Effect of residual stress on fatigue
Shot peening and fatigue performance
Fatigue and fracture mechanics
Design options to improve fatigue life
Material selection
Microstructural and micromechanical modelling
Machine learning based approach to predict fatigue life
Environmental effects on fatigue life
Crack Propagation
Probabilistic aspects
Surface treatment for improvement of fatigue performance
