Abstract We propose a calculation and experimental method for studying the influence of cyclic thermomechanical loading, wherein the object under investigation is subjected to the simultaneous action of a cyclically varying mechanical load and temperature varying with time and resulting in the occurrence of thermal stresses, on fatigue-crack propagation in specimens of triangular cross section. We present results of the calculation of the stress-intensity factors in elastic formulation for an angular mode-I crack in the case of loading by pure bending and temperature varying with time. We studied crack-growth resistance of alloys KhN70VMTYu (Eacute;I617) and KhN73MBTYu (Eacute;I698) at a constant temperature and under thermomechanical loading. Kinetic fracture diagrams da/dN vs KI have been constructed for the alloys at a constant temperature and for two regimes of thermal cycling within a near-threshold and mean-amplitude portions of the curve da/dN vs KI .
