High temperature, low-cycle fatigue of copper-base alloys for rocket nozzles. Part 2: Strainrange partitioning and low-cycle fatigue results at 538 deg C [PDF]
Low-cycle fatigue tests of 1/2 Hard AMZIRC Copper and NARloy Z were performed in argon at 538 C to determine partitioned strain range versus life relationships. Strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue tests of a Zr-Cr-Mg copper-base alloy were also performed.

Fatigue damage interaction behavior of PWA 1480 [PDF]
The fatigue damage interaction behavior of PWA 1480 single crystal alloy has been experimentally established for the two-level loading case in which a block of low-cycle fatigue loading is followed by high-cycle fatigue loading to failure.

Deformation mechanisms in a TiNi shape memory alloy during cyclic loading [PDF]
The deformation mechanisms governing the cyclic stress-strain behaviour of a TiNi shape memory alloy were investigated in this work. To understand the development of these mechanisms during cyclic loading, three low-cycle fatigue tests were performed and

COMBINED HIGH AND LOW CYCLE FATIGUE LIFE PREDICTION MODEL TAKING ACCOUNT OF COUPLED DAMAGE
Mechanical parts such as gas turbine blades are often subjected to low cycle fatigue caused by low⁃frequency centrifugal force and high cycle fatigue caused by high⁃frequency vibration loads during the working process,and the damage caused by the ...

Accommodating and cracking mechanisms in low-cycle fatigue [PDF]
The three main stages of fatigue life (accommodation, crack initiation and crack growth) are briefly reviewed. The cyclic behavior of annealed or predeformed face-centered cubic metals is described.

Risk estimation for LCF crack initiation
An accurate risk assessment for fatigue damage is of vital importance for the design and service of today's turbomachinery components. We present an approach for quantifying the probability of crack initiation due to surface driven low-cycle fatigue (LCF)
