Assessment of multiaxial fatigue behaviour of welded joints under combined bending and torsion by application of a fictitious notch radius
2004
Abstract A major problem in the assessment of the multiaxial fatigue behaviour in welded joints is the determination of local notch stresses, since the real local radii in most cases are not known. This can be circumvented by introducing a fictitious notch radius, according to Neuber and Radaj. The calculations of local equivalent stress amplitudes for welded joints (tube–tube and flange–tube) under pure bending, pure torsion and combined in- and out-of-phase bending with torsion can then be carried out by stress-based and strain energy density-based criteria. Among the investigated methods, the most reliable results are obtained with the effective equivalent stress hypothesis, an integral …
Damage accumulation under variable amplitude loading of welded medium- and high-strength steels
2004
Abstract The paper presents the calculation of cumulative damage for two types of welded joints (butt weld and transverse stiffeners) of four steels (medium to high strength): S355N, S355M, S690Q and S960Q. This calculation is based on experimental data obtained under axial loading and bending with constant and variable amplitudes (Gaussian distribution and Gauss with overload spectrum). The experiments were performed under fully reversed ( R =−1) and pulsating ( R =0) loading. The fatigue life is calculated using the modifications of the Palmgren–Miner–Original rule, according to the Palmgren–Miner–Elementary method, as well as to Haibach’s suggestion. The fatigue life does not depend on t…
Comparison of different methods for presenting variable amplitude loading fatigue results
2004
This paper discusses eight methods for presenting fatigue test results for variable amplitude loading and their comparison with constant amplitude loading. While the maximum amplitude method compares constant and variable amplitude loading results by the Woehler and Gassner curves, all other seven methods try to transform the variable amplitude results into the Woehler curve by applying different equations. The advantage of the maximum amplitude method is the direct comparison of the maximum amplitude of the spectrum with the yield strength and with the high-cycle fatigue strength, which is an important step in structural design. Among the other methods, the best results were obtained by fo…
