About this document

Low Cycle vs High Cycle Fatigue Analysis by notonectal is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Fatigue refers to damage accumulation in materials from fluctuating stresses and strains over time. It can lead to crack initiation and growth. High cycle fatigue (HCF) refers to failures from millions of lower stress cycles, while low cycle fatigue (LCF) refers to failures from thousands of higher stress cycles. Gas turbine engine components require characterization of both HCF and LCF, with an emphasis on predicting crack initiation life for LCF. Distinguishing HCF and LCF is important because they involv
