“…However, this conclusion is contrary to many researchers' work [16,17] and the experiment results. A reasonable explanation is that this model is for fatigue crack initiation, but not for the crack propagation.…”

Based on Tanaka and Mura's fatigue model and Griffith theory for fracture, an energy-equilibrium model was proposed to explain the complex stress effect on fatigue behavior. When the summation of the elastic strain energy release and the stored strain energy of accumulated dislocations reach the surface energy of a crack, the fatigue crack will initiate in materials. According to this model, for multiaxial stress condition, the orientation of the crack initiation and the initiation life can be deduced from the energy equilibrium equation. For the uniaxial fatigue loading with mean stress, the relation between the maximum stress or the minimum stress and the stress amplitude is in agreement with an ellipse equation on the constant life diagram. If the ratio of the mean stress to stress amplitude is less than a critical value 0.17, and the stress amplitude keeps constant, the fatigue crack initiation life will decrease with the increase of the compress mean stress. In this model, the mean stress does not cause damage accumulation with the fatigue cycles in crack initiation. For this reason, the loading sequence of different load levels would induce the cumulative damage to deviate from the Palmgren-Miner cumulative damage rule. The procedure of estimating the damage under random loading is also discussed.

“…The Miner's rule has always been acknowledged as a simplification that is easy to use in design where detailed loading history is unknown. But under many variable amplitude loading conditions, life predictions have been found to be unreliable since it did not properly take into account the loading sequence effect [8][9][10]. Therefore, it is uncertain to use the Miner's rule for remaining fatigue life estimation of railway bridges because most of the railway bridges are subjected to variable amplitude loadings.…”

This paper presents a new method to estimate the remaining fatigue lives of riveted connections of railway bridges. The proposed method mainly consists of secondary stress histories, recently developed sequential law and fully known Wohler curve. It is essential to use the fully known Wohler curve. Therefore the technique, which utilizes the transfer of the partially known code given Wohler curve to a fully known curve, is also discussed. Initially the details of new damage indicator based sequential law and it's proposed extension for multiaxial fatigue is described. Secondly the remaining fatigue life of an existing riveted bridge connection is estimated by introducing a new method. Hence validity and merits of the proposed method is confirmed by comparing the results with previous methods-based fatigue lives. ·
