A unified ductility criterion for fatigue–creep life prediction is presented based on the static fracture toughness exhaustion and dissipated cyclic strain energy density of high temperature components. It provides a general failure criterion for both low and high cycle fatigue regimes. The effects of mean stress, creep and loading waveform on fatigue life are incorporated into this criterion. Applicability and prediction accuracy of the newly proposed criterion was validated through comparing model predictions to experimental results taken from the literature. The results show that the proposed criterion is robust for different loading conditions and more accurate than other existing strain energy/ductility-based methods.

Abstract This paper deals with the creep characteristics of the aircraft turbine disc material of nickel-base superalloy GH4169 under high temperature. From the perspective of continuum damage mechanics, a new creep life prediction model is proposed to predict the creep life of metallic materials under both uniaxial and multiaxial stress states. The creep test data of GH4169 under different loading conditions are used to demonstrate the proposed model. Moreover, from the perspective of numerical simulation, the test data with analysis results obtained by using the finite element analysis based on Graham creep model is carried out for comparison. The results show that numerical analysis results are in good agreement with experimental data. By incorporating the numerical analysis and continuum damage mechanics, it provides an effective way to accurately describe the creep damage process of GH4169.
