The mean stress effect in fatigue life varies by material and loading conditions. Therefore, a classical low cycle fatigue (LCF) model based on mean stress correction shows limits in asymmetric loading cases in both accuracy and applicability. In this paper, the effect of strain ratio (R) on LCF life is analyzed and a strain ratio-based model is presented for asymmetric loading cases. Two correction factors are introduced to express correlations between strain ratio and fatigue strength coefficient and between strain ratio and fatigue ductility coefficient. Verifications are conducted through four materials under different strain ratios: high-pressure tubing steel (HPTS), 2124-T851 aluminum alloy, epoxy resin and AZ61A magnesium alloy. Compared with current widely used LCF models, the proposed model shows a better life prediction accuracy and higher potential in implementation in symmetric and asymmetric loading cases for different materials. It is also found that the strain ratio-based correction is able to consider the damage of ratcheting strain that the mean stress-based models cannot.

The effects of cyclic pre-strain on low cycle fatigue properties of austenitic stainless steel were investigated, and the fatigue damage was assessed based on several parameters such as the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of diffracted X-ray profile and surface roughness of specimens. The strain-controlled tests were conducted under strain ratio Rε = −1 and various constant total strain ranges. Also the change in remnant fatigue lives were investigated when the cyclic pre-strain were applied to the specimens under the different number of cycles which were determined with reference to the usage factor UFpre ranged from 0.2 to 0.8. As a result, the remnant fatigue life of the pre-strained samples became shorter than that of the sample without pre-strain as the UFpre increased. The relationship between the pre-strain damage expressed in UFpre and the remnant fatigue damage in UFpost was roughly described by the cumulative linear damage law: UFpre + UFpost = 1. Namely, the cyclic pre-strain affected the remnant fatigue lives. In order to evaluate the effects of cyclic pre-strain on fatigue lives more precisely, the damage in the cyclic pre-straining processes was estimated by using FWHM and surface roughness. The FWHM of the specimens with pre-strain once decreased with increase in UFpre, and then increased after showing a minimum value. The surface roughness of specimens increased linearly with an increase of the number of pre-straining cycles. These results suggested that the damage due to pre-strain can be assessed by means of FWHM and surface roughness of specimens.

This paper describes the crack growth direction in biaxial low cycle fatigue under combined axial and torsional stresses in hollow cylindrical specimens of type 304 stainless steel at 923 K in air. Three types of crack are identified, namely macrocrack greater than 1 mm in length, subcracks between 0.1 mm and 1.0 mm in length, and microcracks less than 0.1 mm in length. The macrocrack direction as well as that of the subcrack depends on the principal strain ratio but the microcrack is mode I for all the principal strain ranges tested. The connection of the three types of crack is discussed in relation to the surface oxidation. Typical strain stress and criteria for the biaxial low cycle fatigue failure are applied to the experimental data and their applicability is discussed.

Large-size circular-plate specimens made of typical pressure-vessel materials were tested to determine their low-cycle fatigue strength. The test consisted of two distinct phases; i.e., development of an appropriate testing apparatus and the fatigue testing of the plate specimens. A unique apparatus was developed to test simply supported, circular plate-type specimens. Through a hydraulic system, a uniform pressure was applied to the specimen that resulted in a state of equibiaxial strain at the center of the plate. Tests were conducted to evaluate the pressure-deflection characteristics for various specimen strain levels. Biaxial fatigue data with a strain ratio (circumferential to radial) of 1:1 were generated for three pressure-vessel materials (A-201, A-302, T-1) for a completely reversed strain cycle. Initial cracking was used as a criterion of failure. Cracks were determined by monitoring electrical-resistance strain gages mounted on the specimen.
