1. Fatigue, Shakedown, Ratcheting for ASME Code
2. Stabilized Cycle in Component
3. Strain Range
4. Cyclic Curve
5. Twice-Yield (2xY) for EP-FEA Input
Loading=Load range
Stress strain law=cyclic stress range-strain range
Output
Stress components=stress range components
Strain components=strain range components
6. Fatigue Damage Use calculated strain range at critical location
Get allowed cycles from strain-based design fatigue curve
Determine fatigue damage for each cycle
7. Role of Plastic Shakedown Refers to advancement of hysteresis loop at a point
Not a failure mode
Only required to justify use of strain-based fatigue curve
8. Plastic Shakedown Example
9. Ratcheting Refers to incremental growth of gross dimensions
Is a global failure mode
10. Ratcheting Check Not needed for only primary loading that meets static loading requirements
Needed for cyclic thermal loading plus primary loading with a mean
11. Cone Cyl Junction
12. Plastic Shakedown Check Not required if ratcheting check passes
Reason: Advancement of hysteresis loop cannot be sustained
