Keywords: MSD, Continuing Damage, Squeeze Force

In this paper, a probabilistic model that incorporates continuing damage assumption as a MSD modeling simplification is presented and its output is compared to other work from the literature. The model is used to demonstrate how MSD onset behaviour is prevented when high rivet squeeze force is employed.
