Abstract
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the creep-thermal fatigue (CTF) behavior of thin-walled structures with holes. To achieve this, a high-temperature hold phase was added in the testing. The crack propagation of CTF is driven by the combined effects of creep, thermal fatigue, and oxidation. Therefore, a creep-thermal fatigue-oxidation phase field model was developed to simulate CTF behavior. The model accounts for the interaction between creep damage and fatigue damage, as well as the oxidation effect. A creep degradation function was formulated based on classical damage theory, and two creep damage models were compared. Two physically meaningful strategies were proposed to describe oxidation-induced fatigue damage. Finally, the applicability of model to creep-fatigue was validated.
