FATIGUE DAMAGE IN 1045 STEEL UNDER CONSTANT AMPLITUDE BIAXIAL LOADING

The progressive nature of fatigue damage under multiaxial stress states has been investigated. Experiments were performed on thin‐wall tubular specimens of 1045 steel in tension, torsion and combined tension‐torsion loading. Two equivalent strain amplitudes, one in the high cycle fatigue (HCF) regio...

Description
Summary:The progressive nature of fatigue damage under multiaxial stress states has been investigated. Experiments were performed on thin‐wall tubular specimens of 1045 steel in tension, torsion and combined tension‐torsion loading. Two equivalent strain amplitudes, one in the high cycle fatigue (HCF) region and one in low cycle fatigue (LCF) region were employed in this study. Four recently proposed damage theories were evaluated. Crack depth was used as a damage parameter in comparing damage curves under different loading modes. Different types of crack systems were observed in the HCF and LCF regions. The damage curve obtained in tension loading can be used to evaluate the damage behavior under combined tension—torsion loading. The results of torsion loading show that torsional damage behavior is different from the above two loading modes.
