In this work, the multiaxial fatigue behaviour of 316 and 304 stainless steel was studied. The study was based on the critical plane approach which is based on observations that cracks tend to nucleate and grow in specific planes. Three different critical plane models were employed to this end, namely Fatemi–Socie (FS), Smith–Watson–Topper (SWT) and the newly proposed Sandip–Kallmeyer–Smith (SKS) model. The study allowed equi-biaxial stress state, mean strain and non–proportional hardening effects to be taken into consideration. Experimental tests including different combinations of tension, torsion and inner pressure were performed and were useful to identify the predominant failure mode for the two materials. The results also showed that the SKS damage parameter returned more conservative results than FS with lower scatter level in both materials, with prediction values between FS and SWT.

In this work the biaxial behavior of 316 stainless steel is studied under the lens of critical plane approach. A series of ten experiments were developed on dog bone shape hollow cylindrical specimens made of type 316 stainless steel. Five different loading conditions were assessed, with (i) only axial stress, (ii) only hoop stress, (iii) proportional combination of axial and hoop stresses, (iv) non-proportional combination of axial and hoop stresses with square shape and (v) non-proportional combination of axial and hoop stresses with L-shape. The fatigue analysis is performed following four different critical plane theories, namely Wang-Brown, Fatemi-Socie, Liu I and Liu II. The efficiency of all four theories is studied in terms of the accuracy of their life predictions.
