A master’s thesis at the College of Engineering at the University of Basrah discussed (the effect of defects variables of welded joints on fatigue life using finite element analysis)

The disadvantages of welding are:
Incomplete penetration, sub-edge cutting, porosity and misalignment, as well as the effect of defect dimensions on fatigue life
The thesis concluded that there is a good agreement between the finite element modeling and the practical results as well as the theoretical results. With a sub-edge cutting defect, the life of the tire varies depending on the depth, width and length of the defect. With an incomplete penetration defect, the life of the tire varies depending on the depth and length of the defect.
