This publication is intended to present a new way of estimating the fatigue life of various construction materials. Carpinteri’s proposal was modified by replacing the fatigue limits ratio with the value of the normal to shear stress ratio for a given number of cycles. In this study, the proposed criterion and calculation model was verified for the selected group of aluminium alloys. The purpose of the analysis of the experimental studies was to check the effectiveness of the proposed method of estimating fatigue life under the applied bending and torsional load conditions. The results of the fatigue calculations are presented in graphical form by means of diagrams showing the comparison of design and experimental strength. Before fatigue life was calculated, the critical plane orientation according to Carpinteri’s model and the proposed model were determined. After analyzing the results of the comparison of design and experimental durability, it can be stated that the proposed fatigue life estimation algorithm gives satisfactory results for multiaxial cyclic loads.

A weight function method based on strain parameters is proposed to determine the critical plane in low-cycle fatigue region under both constant and variable amplitude tension–torsion loadings. The critical plane is defined by the weighted mean maximum absolute shear strain plane. Combined with the critical plane determined by the proposed method, strain-based fatigue life prediction models and Wang-Brown’s multiaxial cycle counting method are employed to predict the fatigue life. The experimental critical plane orientation and fatigue life data under constant and variable amplitude tension–torsion loadings are used to verify the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is appropriate to determine the critical plane under both constant and variable amplitude loadings.
