— A Strip‐Yield Model for Notched Components (SYMNC) model which employs Newman's method of simulating crack closure and determining the effective stress‐intensity factor is used to predict the fatigue crack growth behavior of non‐stress relieved and stress relieved welded joints. Predictions of the SYMNC model compare favorably with experimental data at low stress amplitudes.
