## Abstract From a survey of the literature and experimental results obtained with two austenitic steels it is concluded that for fatigue crack propagation with negative Rβvalues the often used relation ΞK~eff~ = K~max~ underestimates the crack growth rate. Relations between ΞK~eff~ and ΞK are pres

The results of fatigue crack growth tests under a block loading consisting of four mean levels are analyzed in terms of equivalent constant amplitude loading concepts. The different models used to determine the equivalent loadings are based on the root mean square (RMS) method, a modified method bas
The Gaussian stationary stochastic load process is considered to cause fatigue crack growth in randomly inhomogeneous materials. The Paris-Erdogan model is applied and the time when the crack length reaches a critical value (lifetime) is determined as a random variable. It is shown that random varia
A multi-variable regression analysis is made of crack propagation data under flight simulation loading for the 2024-T3 and 7075-T6 alloys. The study is made using an equivalent effective stress range concept based on crack closure considerations. A two-variable regression model of the equivalent str
