Abstract
In this research, fatigue crack propagation tests of magnesium alloy AZ31B and aluminum alloy 2024T3 were conducted under conditions of biaxial and uniaxial loading by using a cruciform specimen in a biaxial fatigue machine, in order to investigate the effect of non-singular stress cycling. From these comprehensive experiments, in the magnesium alloy, the remarkable effect was found in the specific biaxial load stress ratio RB (= σx 0/σy 0) on KI-da/dN relation. On the other hand, in the aluminum alloy, it was confirmed that there is no influence of a RB on KI-da/dN relation.
