Linear cumulative damage rule

Fig. 42. Fatigue lifetime enhancement relative to the linear cumulative damage rule. The overloads and primary load cycles are selected from loads that would normally lead to craze or shear type of behavior as indicated in the figure...

The fatigue damage is calculated based on ASME III, Division I, NG criteria for cumulative damage (Miner s linear damage rule). For this procedure, design fatigue curves up to 10 cycles are used except for austenitic...

Calculate the cumulative usage factor U by means of a linear damage relationship known as Miner s rule. It is assumed that if i cycles would produce failure at a stress level Si then cycles at the same stress level would use up the fraction of the total life. Failure...
