Abstract
One of the most crucial tasks in fatigue life-time estimation of components loaded with multiaxial variable amplitude loading is to correctly identify loading cycles that can be used with multiaxial damage criterions. During past years, several cycle counting methods have been proposed for multiaxial loading conditions. The aim of this text is the comparison of selected multiaxial cycle counting methods, namely Wang-Brown’s method, Modified Wang-Brown’s method, Bannantine-Socie’s method and then a critical analysis of the obtained results. For the comparison of chosen methods, a new data set, consisting of experimentally obtained results from multiaxial non-proportional variable amplitude loading tests carried on by authors, has been used. The tested specimens were made from S355J0 structural steel and the testing procedure has been carried out on the MTS Axial/Torsion servo hydraulic testing machine. Findley and McDiarmid multiaxial criterion with Palgren-Miner summation rule have been used for fatigue life-time estimation of the tested specimens.
