Aluminium alloys are promising candidates for energy-and cost-efficient components in automotive and aerospace industries, due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and relatively low cost compared to titanium alloys. As modern cast processing and post-processing, e.g. hot isostatic pressing, result in decreased frequency and size of defects, the weakest link depends on microstructural characteristics, e.g. secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS), Si eutectic morphology and α-Al solid solution hardness. Hereby, fatigue investigations of the effect of the microstructure characteristics on the cyclic stress-strain behaviour as well as fatigue mechanisms in the low cycle and high cycle fatigue regime are performed. For this purpose, samples of the aluminium cast alloy EN AC-AlSi7Mg0.3 with different Si eutectic morphology and α-Al solid solution hardness were investigated. To compare the monotonic and cyclic stress-strain curves, quasistatic tensile tests and incremental step tests were performed on two microstructure conditions. The results show that the cyclic loading leads to a hardening of the material compared to monotonic loading. Based on damage parameter Woehler curves, it is possible to predict the damage progression and fatigue life for monotonic and cyclic loading in hypo-eutectic Al-Si-Mg cast alloys by one power law.

The author offer transforming the diagram of ideal elastic-plastic deformations for the description of the stress-strain state of embedment of reinforcement behind a critical inclined crack at repeatedly repeating loadings. The endurance limit of the adhesion between concrete and reinforcement and its corresponding displacements in case of repeated loadings are accepted as the main indicators. This adhesion law is the most appropriate for the description of physical and mechanical phenomena in the contact zone in case of cyclic loading, because it simply and reliably describes the adhesion mechanism and the nature of the deformation, and greatly simplifies the endurance calculations compared to the standard adhesion law. On the basis of this diagram the author obtained the equations for the description of the distribution of pressures and displacements after cyclic loading with account for the development of deformations of cyclic creep of the concrete under the studs of reinforcement.

Fatigue strength assessment of a butt-welded joint in ship structures based on a time-domain strain approach is performed in this study. The service life load histories applied to the butt-welded joint located on the deck of a bulk carrier are generated, accounting for the still-water and wave-induced loads. The rainflow counting method is applied to analyze the load histories, and the long-term distributions of the load range are compared with those based on the conventional spectral fatigue analysis. An approach of converting the load history to a series of closed notch stress-strain hysteresis loops and several open notch stress-strain hysteresis curves is proposed and demonstrated under variable amplitude loading. The approach is based on analytical notch stress-strain estimations and consists of several steps to consider the material memory effect, overcoming some limitations of the existing methods. To determine the fatigue damage for the variable amplitude loading, a design fatigue curve is derived considering the uncertainty in the fatigue lives and load sequence effects. The intrinsic fatigue limit concept is used to filter the small amplitude cycles that do not have a damaging effect. The fatigue strength of the butt-welded joint is analyzed, taking the weld-induced residual stress and misalignment effects into account explicitly. The notch mean stresses or strain amplitudes of the cycles are significantly enhanced because of the presence of a high level of weld-induced tensile residual stress or misalignment, resulting in highly severe fatigue damage. 1. Introduction Complex ship structures containing geometrical and material discontinuities are prone to fatigue because of cyclic loads. Therefore, fatigue strength assessment has been an important criterion in the ship structural design (Guedes Soares & Moan 1991). Various fatigue design concepts for the assessment of welded joints, where fatigue failures mostly originate, are applied (Xu 1997; Radaj et al. 2006), and they can be classified into two types. The first one is based on S-N curves in combination with the Palmgren-Miner rule, and the second one is based on the crack propagation models and failure criteria.

Abstract The stress-strain curves in this data set are representative examples of the behavior of several cast alloys under tensile or compressive loads. The curves are arranged by alloy designation. Each figure cites the original source of the curve and provides pertinent background information as available. Compressive tangent modulus curves are presented for certain alloys. The effects of cyclic loading are given on several curves.
