In the paper the spectral analysis of several fatigue criteria under simple and complex states of stress has been done and limitations appearing while formulating new criteria for multiaxial random loadings have been shown. The presented analysis includes determination, with digital simulation, of probability density function and power spectral density function of the equivalent stress according to three special linear criteria of multiaxial random fatigue and six nonlinear criteria. Calculations were carried out for four kinds of random stress state. It has been shown that mathematical models for the criteria of multiaxial random fatigue formulated as nonlinear combinations of stress state components have unfavourable statistical properties, which make their application for fatigue life determination difficult.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
