In parameterized complexity, it is well-known that a parameterized problem is fixed-parameter tractable if and only if it has a kernel?an instance equivalent to the input instance, whose size is just a function of the parameter. The size of the kernel ca...

The notch (i.e., stress concentration) and defect are important factors influencing the conventional fatigue behavior of metallic materials. What is the influence of notches and defects on the dwell fatigue mechanism and fatigue life? In this paper, the ...
