Abstract: Creep-fatigue interaction and its effect on damage of components in service have been a major concern to analysts. To deal with this problem, several criteria have been proposed and used, such ...

Abstract: This paper describes the failure mode observed in two types of FCC structural materials: waspaloy and type 316 stainless steel as a result of biaxial low cycle fatigue at elevated temperatures. ...

Abstract: The method of strain range partitioning was applied to a series of torsional fatigue tests conducted on tubular 304 stainless steel specimens at 1200°F (649°C). Creep strain was ...

Abstract: The J-integral approach was applied to plates containing surface flaws type of cracks. The experimental procedure followed in this investigation was based on a proposed method by Begley and ...

Abstract: The effect of stress ratio (mean stress) on fatigue crack growth in a biaxial stress field was investigated. The biaxiality was introduced by means of anticlastic bending of rhombic plates. A ...
