Fatigue Verification by DIBt - Richtlinie Linear Accumulation Lawby Palmgren and Miner: Design Stresses for compression loading: Scd,min = sd ∙ σc,min ∙ c / fcd,fatScd,max = sd ∙ σc,max ∙ c / fcd,fat Ni = Number of load cycles for current load spectrumNFi = Corresponding total number of cycles to failure log N S – N curves by Model Code 90

  6. Strain evolution under constant fatigue loading

  7. The mechanical work, which have to be applied to obtain a certain damage state during the fatigue process, is equal to the mechanical work under monotonic loading to obtain the same damage state. !

  20. 5. Summary and Further Work • The linear cumulative damage law by Palmgren und Miner could lead to unsafe or uneconomical concrete constructions for Wind Turbines. • A new fatigue damage approach, based on a fracture energy regard, calculates realistically damage evolution in concrete subjected to multi-stage fatigue loading. • The influences of multiaxial loading to the fatigue verification could be considered by modificated uniaxial Wöhler-Curves. • Further Work:Experimental testings are necessary for validating the multiaxial fatigue approach.
