Abstract This work proposes a new method for the fatigue damage evaluation of vibrational loads, based on preceding investigations on the relationship between stresses and modal velocities. As a first step, the influence of the geometry on the particular relationship is studied. Therefore, an analytic expression for Euler Bernoulli beams with a non-constant cross section is derived. Afterward, a general method for obtaining geometric factors from finite element (FE) models is proposed. In order to ensure a fast fatigue damage evaluation, strongly simplified FE-models are used for the determination of both factors and measurement locations. The entire method is demonstrated on three mechanical structures and indicates a better compromise between effort and accuracy than existing methods. For all examples, the usage of velocities and geometric factors obtained from simplified FE models enables a sufficient fatigue damage calculation.

Two multiaxial damage parameters are proposed in this paper. The proposed fatigue damage parameters do not include any weight constants, which can be used under either multiaxial proportional loading or non-proportional loading. On the basis of the research on the critical plane approach for the tension-torsion thin tubular multiaxial fatigue specimens, two multiaxial fatigue damage models are proposed by combining the maximum shear strain and the normal strain excursion between adjacent turning points of the maximum shear strain on the critical plane. The proposed multiaxial fatigue damage models are used to predict the fatigue lives of the tension-torsion thin tube, and the results show that a good agreement is demonstrated with experimental data.
