Abstract
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard E606-801 is a recommended testing practice for strain-controlled, low cycle fatigue (LCF) testing of uniaxially-loaded metallic test specimens. This standard was first adopted in 1977 for LCF at room temperature and was modified in 1980 to include high temperature LCF. ASTM Committee E09, which oversees ASTM fatigue activities, is currently involved in extending the recommended practices of E606-80 to other types of fatigue loading of metallic specimens. These include thermomechanical fatigue (TMF), multiaxial fatigue, and fatigue under high pressure hydrogen environments. In addition, standardization of room temperature and elevated temperature fatigue testing of metal matrix and ceramic matrix composite materials is being examined in conjunction with ASTM committee D-30 on High Modulus Fibers and Their Composites.
