The purpose of the present research project is to study multiaxial fatigue behavior of 2618 alloy. The influence of mean stress on the fatigue behavior under tension and torsion is particularly investigated. Fatigue tests under combined tensile-torsion, in or out of phase, as well as combined tensile-torsion-internal pressure tests have also been conducted. Multiaxial fatigue results are analyzed according to Fatemi-Socie criterion to predict the fatigue life.

The fatigue properties of ferritic-pearlitic-bainitic steel using specimens produced from massive forging were measured in stress controlled regime with positive mean stress. The cyclic creep curves and cyclic hardening/softening curves were evaluated. The fatigue life was plotted in dependence on the mean stress and on the plastic strain amplitude. The principal contribution to the drop of the fatigue life with the mean stress is due to the increase of the plastic strain amplitude in cycling with mean stress.

Abstract Mean stress effects in pressurized steel blocks were examined under constant amplitude fatigue loading. The tests were performed to provide experimental data needed to study the effect of mean stress on fatigue lives of subject specimen, and to substantiate the use of analytical expressions to account for the mean stress. The mean stress was the result of subjecting the specimens to an autofrettage pressure which induced compressive residual stresses at the crossbore intersection of the specimens. Fatigue tests were carried out under both tensile and compressive mean stress levels. Test results were compared to several mean stress accounting relationships such as the Smith-Watson Topper, Bergmann and Seeger, modified Goodman, Gerber and Soderberg. Test results indicated that the modified Goodman equation is favorable in accounting for the effect of both tensile and compressive mean stresses on fatigue life (up to a compressive mean stress to ultimate stress ratio of −0.2). The behavior under compressive mean stress to ultimate stress ratio of less than −0.2 indicated that a linear correction relationship was required.

The effect of torsional mean stress on the fatigue behavior of glass fiber-reinforced polyester (GFRP) is studied by testing thin-walled, woven-roving tubular specimens with two fiber orientations, [±45°]2s and [0,90°]2s, at negative stress ratios (R),R=−1,−0.75,−0.5,−0.25, 0. The [±45°]2s specimens were found to have higher fatigue strength than the [0,90°]2s specimens at all stress ratios. This is attributed to the difference in local stress components, the [±45°]2s specimens being subjected to tension-compression local stress components, while the [0,90°]2s specimens being subjected to pure local shear stress. For the studied stress ratios; the mean stress component had a detrimental effect on the amplitude component for the [±45°]2s specimens; while it was ineffective for the [0,90°]2s specimens in a certain region in the mean-amplitude diagram, region (1), then it had a detrimental effect in the rest of the diagram, region (2). The S–N curves for positive stress ratios were extrapolated from those for negative stress ratios, which were found experimentally, for the [0,90°]2s specimens. The positive stress ratio points, having the same local stress state as the negative ones, showed an acceptable behavior tending to decrease the amplitude component for the same life.

The effect of the strain asymmetry on low-cycle fatigue properties and microstructure of Fe–15Mn–10Cr–8Ni–4Si (in. wt. %) alloy undergoing the strain-induced ε-martensitic transformation (ε-MT) were investigated at strain ratios,R, of-1, -0.2, 0.2 and 0.5 under total strain-control mode with total strain amplitude of 0.01. At studied strain ratios the clear asymmetry in tension and compression stress providing tensile mean stress was observed in alloy deformed atRof-0.2, 0.2 and 0.5. The mean stress rapidly decreases to ~ 100 cycles and remain almost zero until failure. It was found that strain-induced ε-martensitic transformation and lattice rotation of austenite provide cyclic hardening of the studied alloy leading to the mean stress relaxation and provides the stability in hysteresis loops behavior at studiedR. As a consequence, the fatigue life,Nf, of the alloy remains on the level of the alloy deformed by LCF atR, of -1 (NfR=-1=9200 cycles). The details of the fatigue behavior, deformation mechanisms and microstructure evolution of the studied alloy are discussed.
