Abstract

Cyclic creep behaviors of carbon steel are investigated by the true stress controlled low-cycle fatigue tests, stepwise or linearly increasing or decreasing maximum stress with a changing stress ratio. The constitutive equation proposed previously by the authors is found to be applicable to represent the strain accumulations in both increasing and decreasing stress conditions. The shape of the hysteresis loop including the cyclic creep strain increment is also discussed.
