Experimental data showing effect of stress state

Submitted by anuradha on
Fatigue

While there is a lot of experimental literature available on the effects of stress-state on ductile failure under monotonic loading, corresponding studies on fatigue mostly involves bending and torsion type of combination loading. Unfortunately, such a loading corresponds to one of the principal stresses being negative and therefore not as critical. We could find only two references which show clear effect of biaxial state of stress in a pressurised cylinder subject to additional axial load (Biaxial-tension fatigue of inconel 718, it is a report in UIUC 1989).

Hi!

I have written the program in C++ which is based on one of BEM (Method of fictitious loadings) . I know there are a lot of open libraries of functions for programming for example openCV or OpenFEM. I could not find Open Source library for BEM. Please if you know them, give links.
