Question 8 / 40:  Which of the following best describes the process of fatigue for engineering materials?
A  Fatigue is material corrosion that prevents further use.
B  Fatigue is the failure or weakening of material caused by repeated or continued stress or loading
C  Fatigue is the natural aging of material that leads to failure.
D  Fatigue is the weakening of engineering materials caused by thermal cycling and the resulting
molecular rearrangements that occur.
E  Fatigue is the temporary weakening of materials resulting from continued use; materials may
recover strength if random molecular rearrangements are allowed to occur during a period of
disuse.

Explanation:

Mechanisms for fatigue may be more complex than just crack propagation under stress (but that feature is important). Fatigue is material failure from repeated or continued use.
