Abstract In order to estimate the statistical variability of fatigue crack growth in metallic structures, a stochastic model is proposed by combining stochastic theory with experimental results. A stochastic differential equation is derived from the stochastic model for fatigue crack growth. By using the solution of the stochastic differential equation, some distribution functions related to fatigue crack growth were derived. Sample functions of fatigue crack growth time histories have been simulated as random processes.
