What is FABER?

FABER (Fatigue Benchmark Repository) is a COST Action (FABER, CA23109), supported by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) focused on creating a comprehensive fatigue data repository, enhancing prediction methods, and fostering collaboration among academia, industry, and developers for safer, cost-effective designs.
FABER is committed to advancing fatigue research by fostering interdisciplinary collaboration. Our mission is to create open-access repositories of experimental data, computational tools, and standardized benchmarks that redefine engineering practices and enhance safety. The goal of the action presented in this project is to develop a global leading network of industry, academia and fatigue solver developers to build a fatigue benchmark repository that will allow all stakeholders to test the quality of fatigue prediction models and of their various implementations in either in-house software units or in purchased solvers.

About a Summer School

We cordially invite students, academics, researchers, and interested participants to attend this Summer School, organized in collaboration with the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS), (Serbian) Society for Structural Integrity and Life  and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Belgrade. The program aims to deepen participants' knowledge of fatigue, with a focus on experimental research and numerical simulation of fatigue crack growth.
