Abstract

Modelling of high temperature fatigue crack growth in Inconel 718 under the interaction of fast cyclic loading and hold times at maximum load has been conducted. A model, based on the concept of a damaged zone in front of the crack tip has been applied for three different temperatures, 550, 600 and 650°C, with good agreement for both calibration and validation tests. A statistical evaluation of 22 tests in total was also conducted, which shows that the developed model gives a reasonable scatter factor at a probability of failure of 0.1%.
