Multiaxial Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue

This book highlights the theory and life prediction methods for multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue, combining mechanical strength, mechanical design, solid mechanics, and material strength. It covers a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from theoretical approaches to testing technologies. These include the fundamentals of room temperature multiaxial cyclic constitutive relationships, room temperature multiaxial low-cycle fatigue theory, multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue testing techniques, characteristics of multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue damage, multiaxial thermo-mechanical cyclic constitutive relations, quantitative characterization methods for multiaxial thermo-mechanical damage, models for cumulative damage in multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue, life prediction methods for multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue, and notched multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue. This book provides an in-depth exploration of the strength theory of multiaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue and reflects the core content of mechanical fatigue strength. It is based on the author's in-depth research in the field, with a comprehensive summary of global research advances in the field to ensure continuity and completeness. This book serves as an excellent reference for graduate students of mechanical engineering, aerospace, aviation, mechanics, and related disciplines, as well as for university faculty and engineering designers in these areas.
