Numerical Calculations of Creep Damage at Cyclic Loading by Use of Tensor Damage Parameter Model

Abstract

Creep of cyclically loaded bodies and their fracture due to creep mechanisms are studied. Creep damage equations are built by use of tensor parameter for titanium alloy. Similar equations were derived for stress cyclic varying using the method of asymptotic expansions and averaging in a period. 2d plane stress problems were solved by FEM and fields of stress, strain, displacement, damage parameter components as well as time to rupture values were obtained
