Abstract

The purpose of this work is to extend the use of unconventional tests and full field measurements (kinematical and thermal) to the identification of the effect of a wide plastic pre-strain range on the high cycle fatigue properties of a dual-phase steel. An unconventional specimen is designed. The geometry of this specimen permits a constant gradient of pre-strain to be obtained after a monotonic tensile test. Then, a self-heating test under cyclic loading is carried out on the pre-strained specimen. During this cyclic test, the thermal field is measured using an infrared camera. Finally, a suitable numerical strategy is proposed to identify a given thermal source model taking into account the influence of plastic pre-strain. The results show that, with the unconventional test and the procedure developed in this work, the influence of a plastic pre-strain range on fatigue properties can be identified by using only one specimen when, for a classical fatigue campaign, a great number of specimens is required.
