A Novel Energy-Critical Multiaxial Fatigue Life Prediction for Low Cycle Fatigue under Mixed-Mode Loading

Fatigue failure evolution is a process of damage accumulation under continued stresses and forces. The mechanical component is always subjected to various loadings and the lifespan is mainly governed by fatigue. The low cycle fatigue (LCF) is a key failure mode of many components. In order to estima...
