Abstract
The low cycle fatigue of a 12 Cr martensitic stainless steel was studied in the temperature range 350–600 °C. It was found that, for Δϵ t ⩽ 2%, the factors governing the damage are mainly the plastic strain range and the temperature. Some methods of life prediction in which temperature is an explicit parameter are reviewed. In this paper an empirical damage law is developed which correlates well with the data obtained at every test temperature. The influence of temperature is taken into account through a thermal activation term.
