摘要

A notch correction method is proposed under multiaxial cyclic loading, in which the real stress increments can be directly obtained by correcting the pseudo stress increments at the notch. Moreover, the proposed method does not inherently restrict the direction and magnitude of real backstress increment in the real stress space. Additionally, on the basis of Kanazawa et al.'s model, the proposed method utilizes pseudo notch strains in replacement of measured strains to take account of the additional hardening due to the non-proportionality of external loadings. Based on the proposed correction method integrated with constitutive equations using Garud's hardening model, a notch stress-strain estimation methodology is developed to calculate the local elastic-plastic stress-strain responses at the notch area. The presented methodology does not require iteration. The applicability of the presented methodology was verified by the experimental data of TC21 titanium alloy notched tubular specimens in this study and SAE 1070 steel notched shaft specimens from the literature. The results showed that the calculated notch strains correlate well with the measured strains under proportional and non-proportional loadings.
