The main objectives of the present study were the application and validation of the newly proposed Digital Image Correlation equivalent structural strain approach for assessing the low-cycle fatigue life of S235 welded joints. Low-cycle fatigue tests were performed at a displacement ratio of minus one. Experimental tests were performed using two different ways of controlling the displacement amplitude: applying traditional low-cycle fatigue tests at a constant amplitude and stepwise succession tests at increasing amplitudes. A comprehensive, independent experimental procedure, proposed by the authors and not yet validated for steel welded joints, was applied to assess the equivalent structural strain range using the Digital Image Correlation technique for the traditional low-cycle fatigue tests and stepwise succession tests at increasing amplitudes. It is noteworthy that the values of the DIC equivalent structural strain (ΔEs from the DIC), calculated on the external sides of the samples, were utilized to predict fatigue life in correlation with the ASME mean curve and fall within the ±3σ scatter bands (external bands). In particular, most of the tests lie within the ±2σ boundary of the design curves except for some tests at low applied displacements. Moreover, it was shown that this method is applicable to stepwise succession tests with increasing displacement amplitudes, leading to significant time savings compared to conventional experimental tests. |
