Abstract

ABSTRACTVery high cycle fatigue (VHCF) tests are often performed by a high‐frequency fatigue test system, such as ultrasonic fatigue test machine. In the paper, simple VHCF tests and cumulative fatigue (low cycle fatigue plus VHCF) tests are performed to investigate the fatigue behaviour, respectively, for a low carbon manganese steel. The test results in Wöhler diagram show a large scatter in VHCF regime. Continuum damage mechanics model is extended to VHCF region to estimate the remaining fatigue life. A rapid fatigue failure probability prediction method is applied and extended to VHCF regime in order to evaluate the fatigue dispersion based on multi‐scales model and fatigue dissipation analysis.
