Cycle-dependent creep-fatigue deformation and life predictions in a nickel-based superalloy at elevated temperature

A series of strain-controlled creep-fatigue tests with various dwell times and strain ratios are carried out on a nickel-based superalloy at 650 °C. Aiming at the mechanical understanding of creep-fatigue behavior, a non-unified constitutive framework is used to describe macroscopic cyclic deformation process to understand creep-fatigue behavior. Afterward, the quantitative evaluation of creep-fatigue damage is quantitatively determined by the...
