Fatigue Damage Evaluation of Aviation Aluminum Alloy Based on Strain Monitoring
Summary
Researchers developed a metal fatigue damage model for aerospace aluminum alloy using real-time strain monitoring combined with crystal plasticity finite element analysis, establishing a constitutive relationship between strain and damage prior to microcrack initiation. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis validated the model's accuracy in predicting fatigue damage states under various stress conditions.
A metal fatigue damage model is established in this study by employing real-time strain monitoring to evaluate the damage state of metal materials. The fatigue life simulation, based on crystal plasticity finite element analysis, establishes the constitutive relationship between strain and damage before microcrack initiation in the low-cycle fatigue state of aerospace aluminum alloy. Subsequently, a comprehensive analysis of the strain–damage relationship is conducted under various stress conditions. Electron backscattering diffraction analysis (EBSD) is used to examine the fatigue damage state of the grooved specimen before initiating fatigue cracks at various stages. This analysis validates the metal fatigue damage model proposed in this paper and is based on strain monitoring, contributing to the enhanced confirmation of the model’s accuracy.

An Approach for Predicting the Low-Cycle-Fatigue Crack Initiation Life of Ultrafine-Grained Aluminum Alloy Considering Inhomogeneous Deformation and Microscale Multiaxial Strain
A fatigue crack initiation life prediction model was developed for ultrafine-grained aluminum alloy by separately accounting for the crack nucleation and small crack propagation stages using grain-scale deformation parameters. The model distinguished between inhomogeneous deformation and multiaxial strain as contributing factors. More accurate fatigue life predictions improve the safety and efficiency of lightweight metal structures.

A damage-based uniaxial fatigue life prediction method for metallic materials
Researchers developed a faster method for determining how long metal components will last under repeated stress by tracking tiny changes in material stiffness as damage accumulates, rather than running tests until failure. The method was validated across ten different metals including steel, aluminum, and titanium, consistently matching results from standard but much more time-consuming tests.
