Multiaxial fatigue behavior and crack orientation prediction for steel and cast iron

Jan Kraft, Alexander Linn, Michael Wächter, Alfons Esderts, Michael Vormwald

Abstract

This study investigates multiaxial fatigue behavior of ductile construction steel S355 and cast iron EN-GJS-500-14. Fatigue lives and crack initiation orientations are measured. Three critical plane models are evaluated for predicting fatigue life and crack initiation angles. While all models achieve decent accuracy in predicting fatigue life, crack initiation angle predictions are less satisfactory. Weak correlation is observed between the quality of fatigue life and crack orientation prediction, particularly for the Smith-Watson-Topper (SWT) and Fatemi-Socie (FS) models. The SWT model performs better in predicting fatigue life and crack angles for cast iron, while the FS model shows higher accuracy for S355. The short-crack model (SC) provides the best overall fatigue life prediction but crack orientation estimation is not superior.
