Abstract

Stress-controlled uniaxial push-pull fatigue tests were carried out with cylindrical specimens of low carbon steel with a carbon content of 0.1 percent. Resistent heated grips provided testing temperatures up to 550°C. During all fatigue tests the time-dependent strain was measured. The strain at zero load, the plastic strain amplitude plotted against the number of cycles is known as the cyclic deformation curve. At room temperature, this curve depends on the applied stress amplitude. The shape of the cyclic deformation curve at the same stress amplitude is strongly temperature-dependent. In the temperature region of blue brittleness the endurance shows a maximum connected with a very low plastic strain amplitude. Also the cyclic stress strain curves have a different appearance within varied temperature ranges.
