This study aims to investigate fatigue damage resulting from multiaxial fatigue, proportional and/or nonproportional, loading by analyzing stresses and strains over a full domain around a representative stress-strain element. Plain stress-strain transformation of multiaxial hysteresis was performed by varying orientation of plane for 0≤φ≤2π. Parametric representations for both normal and shear stresses and strains were obtained by plotting them in polar figures. These figures show that depending on the applied loading stresses and strains represent definitive known parametric curves. Parametric representation of fatigue damage parameter such as Fatemi-Socie suggests that fatigue damage shall be calculated as the sum of the damage values on all planes. The proposed technique has been shown to improve fatigue life prediction compared to that obtained from the critical plane method. KEYWORDS. Critical plane; Fatigue damage; Multiaxial fatigue; Parametric representation. INTRODUCTION atigue cracks initiate and grow at certain planes, i.e., persistent slip bands (PSBs). This established fact can be clearly observed in deformed single crystals [1-3]. Fatigue damage is associated with crack formation and critical plane concept originated based on this observation. Critical plane concept is widely used as the basis for formulating fatigue damage models. Therefore, fatigue damage is calculated at specific planes that are usually experience maximum value of either normal or shear strain or stress [4-7]. In some models, the critical plane is defined as the plane at which the value of the damage parameter is maximum [8]. On smooth specimen level, critical planes models have been shown to provide reasonable fatigue life predictions for different testing scenarios that include mean stress or strain, constant and variable amplitude loading, proportional and nonproportional loading conditions as well as complex loading paths [9]. However, Socie et al. [10] conducted a comparative numerical analysis on multiaxial fatigue benchmark experiment performed on simple notched SAE shaft [11]. Five software packages were used to compute the fatigue lives for 75 bending-torsion notched shafts. Socie et al. [10] showed that cumulative probability distribution for in-phase loading test on smooth tubular specimen indicates that there is 99% chance for fatigue life to be predicted within a factor of 2. Conversely, there is 99% chance for fatigue life to be predicted within a factor of 10 when it comes to notched shaft. Socie et al. [10] emphasized on the consideration of complex geometries and loading conditions for evaluating fatigue models. On the other hand, it is often found that models that are based on completely different critical plane assumptions such as normal or shear still give very similar fatigue life predictions [9, 12, 13]. Such observation raises two important questions. First, what is the “critical” plane? The second question is: if two criteria are based on two different critical plane assumptions predict similar fatigue lives then which one of them is correct? These arguments suggest that further development is required to improve not only fatigue life but also fatigue crack path predictions. F J. Albinmousa, Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, 37 (2016) 94-100; DOI: 10.3221/IGF-ESIS.37.13 95 This paper aims to investigate fatigue damage resulting from multiaxial, proportional and nonproportional, loading by analysing stresses and strains over a full domain of a representative stress-strain element. A new technique for evaluating strain based fatigue damage without consideration of a particular critical plane has been proposed. MATERIALS AND EXPERIMENTS he material used for this investigation is micro alloyed fine grained structural steel S460N (FeE460) tested by Hoffmeyer et al. [14]. Axial-torsional loading was applied on smooth thin-walled tubes specimens under strain controlled condition and room temperature. Two multiaxial loading paths are considered for parametric analysis: proportional and 90° out-of-phase loading. The monotonic and cyclic properties of S460N steel are listed in Table 1. Details of the proportional and nonproportional cyclic tests can be found in Table 2. This material was selected because of its symmetric cyclic behaviour as shown in Fig. 1.

Albinmousa, Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, 37 (2016) 94-100; DOI: 10.3221/IGF-ESIS.37.13 96 ANALYSIS AND MODELLING ormal and shear cyclic responses in Fig. 1 were transformed using plane stress-strain transformation relations over the range 0 2 with an increment of 1.0°. Maximum stresses and strains at each angular increment were recorded and then plotted on polar diagrams. After that, each polar curve was fitted using proper parametric equation, Eqs. 1 to 8, as shown in Fig. 2 a to h, respectively. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) It should be noted here that the plus and minus signs in Eqs. 1 and 2 represents two different equations for the top and bottom parts of the curves in Figs. 2a and b, respectively. Similar to the stress and strain responses, fatigue damage parameter can also be represented in a parametric form. Figure 3 shows the parametric representation of the Fatemi-Socie [5] fatigue damage parameter for the proportional, Nr20, and nonproportional, Nr26, loading cases. Hence, the Fatemi-Socie damage parameter was expressed in a parametric form as in Eq. 9. (9) N J.

DISCUSSION wo observations can be made from the parametric modelling of the cyclic responses and the fatigue damage. First, stress and strain responses represent definitive known parametric curves. Further study is needed to investigate the possibility of formulating mathematical fatigue damage, fatigue life and fatigue crack path using parametric equations. Second, the polar diagram of the Fatemi-Socie parameter, Fig. 3, shows that substantial number of planes experience high damage. This observation was reported by Jiang et al [15]. It is proposed here that fatigue damage shall be calculated as the sum of all incremental damage on each plane as expressed in Eq. 10. (10) Figure 4: Parametric representation of Fatemi-Socie fatigue damage parameter for Nr20 and Nr26. To verify this proposal, additional multiaxial fatigue data from Hoffmeyer et al. [14] were considered. These include tests from the eleven cyclic loading paths shown in Fig. 4. Fatigue damage and fatigue lives were correlated in Fig. 5a. These data were then fitted with a power relation as expressed in Eq. 11. (11) T J. Albinmousa, Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, 37 (2016) 94-100; DOI: 10.3221/IGF-ESIS.37.13 99 where κ =0.311, β =26.01 and α =-0.329. The predictions of Eq. 11 are compared with the experimental fatigue lives in Fig. 5b. In addition, the predictions of fatigue lives using standard Fatemi-Socie fatigue life model are also included in Fig. 5b. It can be seen from Fig. 5b that fatigue lives obtained by the proposed damage calculation method are mostly within 1.5x factor of lives. Figure 5: Fatigue damage and fatigue life prediction. a) fatigue damage and fatigue life correlation. b) Comparison between fatigue life prediction using the standard Fatemi-Socie critical plane parameter and the proposed damage summation method. CONCLUSION arametric representation of cyclic responses from proportional and nonproportional loading was presented. These responses were successfully fitted with defined parametric equations. Similarly, Fatemi-Socie fatigue damage parameter was also represented in a parametric form. This representation shows that significant number of plans are experiencing high damage values. Therefore, it was suggested that fatigue damage shall be calculated as the sum of all incremental damage values around a stress-strain element. The proposed damage calculation technique was to improve fatigue life life prediction compared to that obtained from the critical plane method.
