Abstract
This thesis brings together the experimental results available in nine published papers spread over thirty-five years in the technical literature. The specimens tested and reported in these papers had sufficient commonality of variables to permit reanalysis of the fatigue results by statistical methods. Through these techniques the original conclusions of the investigators have been reinforced and broadened, that is, made more general for the purposes of the design engineer.
