Abstract

Abstract Fatigue is a damage accumulation process in which material properties are continuously deteriorated and degraded under cyclic loading. Damage accumulation analysis plays a key role in preventing the occurrence of fatigue failure, and the damage evolution mechanism is an important parameter of interest for fatigue behavior. The fatigue cumulative damage life prediction model is established by focusing on the damage evolution mechanism, and an improved Manson–Harford cumulative damage nonlinear model is developed to calculate fatigue damage life by considering the effect of load ratio of multi-stage loading on fatigue life. A fatigue life prediction method considering high-low cycles and multi-stage mixed loads is proposed. The fatigue life prediction accuracy of the model is verified by fatigue tests on structural samples. The accuracy of the fatigue life prediction error is the highest among similar models under the same test, the model proposed in this paper.
