Abstract
Several equivalent stress methods and more advanced critical plane criteria are compared in terms of their performance in fatigue life estimations under uniaxial and biaxial loadings in which the effect of phase is investigated. For this purpose a MATLAB code is written which transforms the multiaxial cyclic stress state into a uniaxial cyclic stress to use with the equivalent stress based methods. For critical plane approaches the program searches a damage parameter on all material planes. The maximum damage parameter is then compared with a material allowable obtained from uniaxial fatigue tests for life estimation. In addition, various methods for calibration of the material coefficient k and prominent stress history enclosure methods to calculate the shear stress amplitude are also studied for determining their effect on the performance of critical plane approaches.

TL;DR: In this paper, a measure which considers a Maximum Rectangular Hull (MRH) is discussed to compare the fatigue strength estimates based on both methods (MCC and MRH) and it is shown that the multiaxial fatigue estimates are improved for most data evaluated when the equivalent shear stress amplitude is computed in terms of the MRH.

TL;DR: In this article, a measure of shear stress amplitude based on a combination of resolved shear stresses amplitudes on two perpendicular directions of a material plane is investigated, which turns unnecessary numerical schemes to accelerate the critical plane search, as well as it enables to significantly reduce the processing time of finite element based fatigue calculations.
