Role of mean stress on fatigue behavior of a 316L austenitic stainless steel in LWR and air environments

Philippe Spätig, Hans-Peter Seifert

Mean stress effects on fatigue life of a stainless steel in air and boiling water reactor (BWR) environments were evaluated by load-controlled tests. In stress-life, non-zero mean stresses increase life in low cycle fatigue regime in both environments and ...
