description

Abstract— Calculated fatigue lives, based on three criteria for multiaxial random fatigue, were compared with lives obtained from tests on cylindrical specimens of 30CrNiMo8 steel subjected to in- and out-of-phase bending and torsion at variable amplitudes. In the chosen fatigue criteria the expected position of the fracture plane, determined from a variance method for the equivalent stress, were taken into account. The equivalent stress history was related to the rain flow method and fatigue damage was evaluated from the Palmgren–Miner hypothesis. It has been shown that the expected fatigue fracture planes agree with those determined by experiments. The most realistic estimations of fatigue life were obtained by the criterion of maximum shear and normal stresses on the fracture plane using a modified shear stress.
