A Method for the Prediction of Fatigue Life of Notched Metallic Material

Abstract: The traditional methods for the prediction of fatigue life of metallic material consider only the two processes of fatigue initiation and fatigue cracking, while the process from fatigue cracking to breaking has been neglected. This paper provides one new method of estimating the fatigue life of under-constant-amplitude loading spectrum---non-local gradient damage enhancement model method. Based on the finite element procedure and the partial damage model, this method inserts the non-local strain's definition formula into the loading function and damage rate increment formula. From this method, the non-partial gradient enhancement damage model is obtained. In this model, the material’s microscopic criterion factor and the material’s damage criterion have been considered, the process of endurance failure is also considered. Thus, the insufficiency of traditional research techniques is effectively avoided, the actual effect analysis of metallic material is more reasonable, and the actual operating mode is been conformed to.

Effectiveness of the Modified Fatigue Criteria for Biaxial Loading of Notched Specimen in High-Cycle Region

Abstract: This article deals with multiaxial fatigue strength of notched round bars made of Cr-Al-Mo steel and tested under combined tension and torsion loading. Fatigue life is one of the important factors in design since majority of engineering components are subjected to variable loading. Most of mechanical components in engineering practice are subjected to combined loading, which can lead to sudden fatigue failure. In present work the fatigue life of specimens made of low-alloy Cr-Al-Mo high-strength steel is studied. Experiments were focused on the high-cycle fatigue region (over 100 000 cycles to final failure). The most relevant goal of this paper is to verify the efficiency of modified classical multiaxial fatigue criteria. The criterion proposed by Goncalves, Araujo and Mamiya was found to be the best in the fatigue life prediction for bending-torsion loading of notched specimens.
