Anisotropic Elastoplastic Damage Mechanics Method to Predict Fatigue Life of the Structure

الملخص EN

New damage mechanics method is proposed to predict the low-cycle fatigue life of metallic structures under multiaxial loading.

The microstructure mechanical model is proposed to simulate anisotropic elastoplastic damage evolution.

As the micromodel depends on few material parameters, the present method is very concise and suitable for engineering application.

The material parameters in damage evolution equation are determined by fatigue experimental data of standard specimens.

By employing further development on the ANSYS platform, the anisotropic elastoplastic damage mechanics-finite element method is developed.

The fatigue crack propagation life of satellite structure is predicted using the present method and the computational results comply with the experimental data very well.
