Numerical Simulation Study on High-Cycle Fatigue Damage for Metals

Article Preview

Abstract:

High-cycle fatigue damage analysis and life prediction is a most crucial problem in the research field of solid mechanics. Based on the thermodynamic potentials in the framework of thermodynamics a numerical method for high-cycle fatigue damage was studied and provided by using a two-scale damage model. Furthermore, according to the “jump-in-cycles” procedure the numerical simulation of high-cycle fatigue damage was implemented in a user subroutine of ABAQUS software. Finally, a numerical simulation instance of high-cycle fatigue damage was provided and compared with a set of test data, which indicates that the numerical simulation method presented is reasonable and applicable.
