The propagation of fatigue cracks under low levels of cyclic stress can be modelled by linear elastic fracture mechanics. Elastic-plastic parameters must be used for the higher stress amplitudes of conventional S–N curves in both the low and the high cycle fatigue regimes. The occurrence of different modes of crack growth is discussed and the use of a propagation law to predict component lifetime is demonstrated.
