Abstract [en]
Fatigue bending tests have been performed on welded pipes made from an austenitic stainless steel. Four types of loading were used: 1) constant amplitude, 2) a load expected at pressure vessel environment, 3) a Gaussian load, and 4) a specially constructed two-level block load. The twenty-eight test results are evaluated using three different models: 1) the classical Basquin equation neglecting the fatigue limit, 2) the ASME model with a fatigue limit, and 3) a model with continuously decreasing fatigue limit. No significant differences between the three models were found. Predictions based on constant amplitude results appear to be non-conservative.
