Fatigue-Life Methods
Three major fatigue life models:
1. Stress-life Method
Least accurate, particularly for low cycle applications.
Most traditional, easiest to implement.
Mainly used for high-cycle fatigue (HCF) applications (N>103 cycles).
2. Strain-life method
Detailed analysis of plastic deformation at localized regions.
Several idealizations lead to uncertainties in results.
Mainly used for low-cycle fatigue (LCF) applications (N103 cycles).

Strain-Life Method
The best approach yet advanced to explain the nature of fatigue failure.
20
Strain-Life Method
Experimental results have shown that the elastic limit of iron and steel
change, either up or down, by cyclic variations of stress.
21
Strain-Life Method
True stress-true strain hysteresis loops for five stress reversals:
22
Strain-Life Method
The life to failure (in reversals) is related to the strain amplitude as follows:

For an initial crack size ai, the crack will propagate as a function of the
number of stress cycles (N) and the stress range.
