      abstract = {The book describes a systematic stochastic modeling  approach for assessing thermal-fatigue crack-growth in  mixing tees, based on the power spectral density of  temperature fluctuation at the inner pipe surface. It shows  the development of a frequency-temperature response  function in the framework of single-input, single-output  (SISO) methodology from random noise/signal theory under  sinusoidal input. The frequency response of stress  intensity factor (SIF) is obtained by a polynomial fitting  procedure of thermal stress profiles at various instants of  time. The method, which takes into account the variability  of material properties, and has been implemented in a  real-world application, estimates the probabilities of  failure by considering a limit state function and Monte  Carlo analysis, which are based on the proposed stochastic  model. Written in a comprehensive and accessible style,  this book presents a new and effective method for assessing  thermal fatigue crack, and it is intended as a concise and  practice-oriented guide for all undergraduate students,  young scientists and researchers dealing with probabilistic  assessment of structural integrity.},
