Abstract

Multiaxial high cycle fatigue life prediction under constant stress amplitude is proposed. This new criterion, which extends the proposed fatigue limit criterion by the authors in the previous papers, uses the unified equivalent shear stress amplitude. The material properties for the proposed criterion are the axial fatigue limit and the true fracture strength. The multiaxial high cycle fatigue tests for life prediction accuracy verification was carried out with S45C and SCM440. The fatigue tests were conducted under combined axial and torsion stresses with mean stress and phase difference. The criterion error is better than that of the Susmel criterion. The proposed criterion predicted the experimental fatigue life to be within a factor of 3.
