Abstract: Methods for estimating the total fatigue lives of bluntly notched members are presented. Analytical estimates are compared to experimental data generated in the Society of Automotive Engineers ...

Abstract: Biaxial fatigue tests were conducted on Inconel 718 thin-walled tubular specimens to quantify the effect of mean stress. The specimens were loaded in combined tension and torsion in strain ...

Abstract: A two-surface kinematic hardening model for the stress-strain response of metals under nonproportional tension-torsion cyclic loading is developed and verified with critical experiments. In this ...

Abstract: It is often assumed that the effects of an aggressive environment can be included in fatigue life estimation procedures by determining the material properties in the environment and at the ...

Abstract: A study of biaxial fatigue of glass fiber-reinforced composites subjected to in-phase, cyclic tensile and torsional loading at cryogenic temperatures is presented. Fatigue failure of the composite ...

Abstract: The dislocation substructures created in 1100 aluminum, OFHC copper, and type 304 and 310 stainless steels by in-phase (proportional) and 90 deg out-of-phase (nonproportional) tension-torsion cyclic ...

Abstract: An analytical method is developed to estimate notch root strains in a notched bar of elastic-plastic, isotropic material subjected to proportional and nonproportional multiaxial nominal loading. ...

Abstract: A study of the fundamental fatigue behavior of G-10 grade, glass fiber-reinforced composite laminate in a liquid nitrogen environment is presented. Both uniaxial tensile and pure torsional fatigue ...
