First, several widely used models of the multiaxial low-cycle fatigue life prediction based on the critical plane approach were presented in this paper, and the predicted results of these models for a medium carbon steel under the condition of multiaxial low-cycle fatigue loading were compared. Second, the stochastic expressions and probability density function curves of the fatigue performance parameters were obtained by probabilistic analysis of the medium carbon steel fatigue data. Finally, the probabilistic model of the multiaxial fatigue life prediction was simulated by Monte Carlo Method, which should provide a basis for the reliability analysis of engineering components subjected to the multiaxial complex loads.
