  text: In this paper, a study based on experimental and numerical simulations is
    performed to analyze fatigue cracks in clinched joints. An experimental investigation
    is conducted to determine the failure modes of clinched joints under cyclic loading
    at different load amplitudes with single-lap shear tests. In addition, numerical
    FEM simulations of clinching process and subsequent shear loading are performed
    to support the experimental investigations by analyzing the state of stresses
    at the location of failure. An attempt is made to explain the location of crack
    initiation in the experiments using evaluation variables such as contact shear
    stress and maximum principal stress.
