Hydraulic components in mobile machines are subjected to varying conditions and loads, which limit their lifetime. In particular, high pressure drop rates are suspected to increase fatigue crack growth rates. Existing studies on the fluid‐structure interaction inside fatigue cracks during fast pressure drops do not explain increased crack growth in hydraulic systems. A laminar flow model was developed...
