Fatigue life of welded joints according to energy criteria in the critical plane

Strength of Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We have determined theoretical notch coefficients with use of the fictitious radius in tube-tube and flange-tube welds. The parameter of normal and shear strain energy density in critical planes is applied for estimation of fatigue life under cyclic conditions of pure bending, pure torsion and combined proportional bending with torsion. The critical planes were determined with use of two methods based on the maximum parameters of, respectively, normal and shear strain energy density.
