Residual life prediction based on nonlinear fatigue damage accumulation model

When a nonlinear fatigue damage accumulation model based on damage curve approach is used to get better residual life prediction results, it is necessary to solve the problem caused by the uncertain exponent of the model. Considering the effects of load interaction, the assumption that there is a linear dependence between the exponent ratio and the loading ratio is established to predict fatigue residual life of materials. Three experimental...
