Impact of choice of stabilized hysteresis loop on the end result of investigation of high-strength low-alloy (hsla) steel on low cycle fatigue

Abstract

High strength low-alloy steel under low cycle fatigue at a certain level of strain controlled achieve stabilized condition. During the fatigue loading stabilized hysteresis loop is determined, which typical cycle of stabilization is calculated as half number of cycles to failure. Stabilized hysteresis loop is a representative of all hysteresis and it's used to determine all of the parameters for the assessment of low cycle fatigue. This paper Shows comparison of complete strain-life curves of low cycle fatigue for two chosen stabilized hysteresis loop cycles of base metal HSLA steel marked as Nionikral 70.
