Fatigue Damage Accumulation under the Complex Varying Loading

Abstract:

Fatigue analysis of steel parts of structures, which are subjected to complex irregular loading programs caused by wind, thermal, wave loads, earthquakes and combined imposed actions, requires in some cases using special methods of stress-strain evaluation. The model of the low cycle fatigue nonlinear damage accumulation is developed with taking into account the history of the deformation process. The damage is defined on the base of considering the quasi-static accumulation of maximal strain (stress) and hysteresis loops. The identification of material constants of the model is discussed. Application of the damage model for fatigue analysis of the antennas, pipelines, basements and fasteners units is considered and a comparison with experiments is given.
