A continuum damage mechanics model was proposed to predict the high cycle fatigue life. In order to consider mean stress effects, the Walker correction was introduced in proposed model. The model was verified by experimental data on LC4 and LY12CZ aluminum alloy under high cycle fatigue loading. The results showed that the predicted life of proposed model well correlated with experimental data.
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.
