Variable Amplitude

Metallic materials are extensively used in engineering structures and fatigue failure is one of the most common failure modes of metal structures. Fatigue phenomena occur when a material is subjected to fluctuating stresses and strains, which lead to failure due to damage accumulation. Different methods, including the Palmgren-Miner linear damage rule- (LDR-) based, multiaxial and variable amplitude loading, stochastic-based, energy-based, and continuum damage mechanics methods, forecast fatigue life. This paper reviews fatigue life prediction techniques for metallic materials. An ideal fatigue life prediction model should include the main features of those already established methods, and its implementation in simulation systems could help engineers and scientists in different applications. In conclusion, LDR-based, multiaxial and variable amplitude loading, stochastic-based, continuum damage mechanics, and energy-based methods are easy, realistic, microstructure dependent, well timed, and damage connected, respectively, for the ideal prediction model.

Isothermal Fatigue

Isothermal and thermomechanical fatigue of 63Sn/37Pb solder is studied under total strain-controlled tests. A standard definition of failure is proposed to allow inter-laboratory comparison. Based on the suggested failure criterion, load drop per cycle, the Young’s modulus and the ratio of the maximum tensile to maximum compressive stresses remain constant, and the fatigue response of the solder is stable before failure, although cyclic softening was observed from the beginning. Experimental results of isothermal fatigue tests for a total strain range from 0.3 to 3 percent show that the log-log plot of the number of cycles to failure versus the plastic strain range has a kink at the point where the elastic strain is approximately equal to the plastic strain. In this paper, it is shown how the isothermal fatigue life of near-eutectic solder at lower strain ranges can be predicted by using the experimental data of fatigue tests at high strain ranges and early stage information of a fatigue test at the strain range in question. A thermomechanical fatigue life prediction is also given based on a dislocation pile-up model. Comparison with experimental results shows a good agreement.
