Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to consider an approximate model of accumulation of microdefects in a material under repeated loading which makes it possible to define theoretical parameters of the fatigue failure (durability, fatigue limit, etc.). The model is involving the relevant law of distribution of ultimate (yield) stresses in the material of these members in combination with the basic characteristics of main mechanical properties of a material (ultimate and yield stresses and associated standard deviations).
Design/methodology/approach
The model of fatigue failure of brittle and elastoplastic materials based on the use of the structural-probabilistic approach and up-to-date ideas on the mechanism of material fracture is proposed. The model combines statistical fracture criteria, which are expressed in terms of damage concentrations, with the approximate model of microcrack accumulation under repeating loading of the same level. According to these criteria, the fatigue failure begins with the accumulation of separation- or shear-type microdefects up to the level of critical values of their density.
Findings
The failure mechanism is associated with the accumulation of dispersed microdamages under repeated loading. The critical value of the density of the microdamages, which are identified with those formed either by separation or shear under static loading in consequence of simple tension, compression or shear, is accepted as the criterion of the onset of fatigue failure. The fatigue being low-cycle or high-cycle is attributed to accumulation of shear microdamages in the region of plastic deformation in the former case and microdamages produced by separation under elastic deformation in the latter one.
Originality/value
The originality of the paper consists in the following. The authors theoretically define parameters of the fatigue failure (durability, fatigue limit, etc.) using the model in combination with the statistical failure (yield) criteria appearing in the damage measures. The constructed fatigue diagram has discontinuities on the conditional boundary dividing domains with the shear-type and separation-type fractures of structural elements. Such results are supported by the experimental results.

Abstract
Purpose
The properties of materials under impact load are introduced in terms of metal, nonmetallic materials and composite materials. And the application of impact load research in biological fields is also mentioned. The current hot research topics and achievements in this field are summarized. In addition, some problems in theoretical modeling and testing of the mechanical properties of materials are discussed.
Design/methodology/approach
The situation of materials under impact load is of great significance to show the mechanical performance. The performance of various materials under impact load is different, and there are many research methods. It is affected by some kinds of factors, such as the temperature, the gap and the speed of load.
Findings
The research on mechanical properties of materials under impact load has the characteristics as fellow. It is difficult to build the theoretical model, verify by experiment and analyze the data accumulation.
Originality/value
This review provides a reference for further study of material properties.
