A prediction method of fatigue strength under an arbitraryfrequency, temperature, and stress ratio is proposed for polymercomposites and its validity is confirmed for the flexural fatiguestrength of satin-woven CFRP laminates. This method is based upon fourhypotheses: (a) same failure process under constant strain-rate (CSR),creep, and fatigue loadings, (b) same time-temperature superpositionprinciple for all failure strengths, (c) linear cumulative damage lawfor nondecreasing stress process, and (d) linear dependence of fatiguestrength upon stress ratio. This method was applied to the flexuralfatigue strength of various unidirectional CFRPs, and the verificationand limitations of this method were discussed. |
