Fig. 1: Cyclic strain evolutions for thermomechanical fatigue cycling.
From: Predicting dwell fatigue life in titanium alloys using modelling and experiment
a, b Stress and temperature fatigue loading types examined. c Evolution of peak strain in each cycle for the three loading types. Thermal strain has been subtracted from the total strain in Loading Type Z and thus only mechanical strains are shown. The sample subjected to dwell loading Type X failed at 1157 cycles, denoted by the black cross.
