Critical Plane Analysis (CPA) is a technique used primarily in the field of fatigue analysis and material mechanics. It is a method that helps to identify the most critical planes in a material where fatigue damage is likely to initiate and propagate. The motivation behind CPA is to understand how different loading conditions and material properties affect the initiation of cracks and fatigue failure in components subjected to cyclic loading.
