In the past three decades ratcheting fatigue has attracted lots of research interest.
Ratcheting can be defined as the directional progressive accumulation of plastic …

This article presents an overview of recent progresses in experimental investigation and
finite element analysis (FEA) of ratcheting behavior of pressurized piping. Ratcheting …

Ratchetting is a kind of special cyclic deformation behavior of the materials and structures
subjected to a cyclic stressing with non-zero mean stress, and should be emphasized in the …

The time-dependent strain cyclic characteristics and ratchetting behaviours of SS304
stainless steel were investigated by uniaxial/multiaxial cyclic loading tests at room and …

Cyclic plastic deformation phenomena include the Bauschinger effect, cyclic
hardening/softening, strain range effect, loading history memory, ratcheting, mean stress …

This paper evaluates seven cyclic plasticity models for structural ratcheting response
simulations. The models evaluated are bilinear (Prager), multilinear (Besseling), Chaboche …

This paper develops a plastic ratcheting based fatigue failure model for HSLA steels from a
combination of results from experiments and finite element simulations using crystal …

This article is concerned with a review of the literature on shakedown problems of complex
structures according to various hardening rules. Although many hardening rules have been …

The aim of this report is to examine the nature of accumulation of ratcheting strain (ɛr) vis-à-
vis in situ substructural and microstructural variations in 304LN stainless steel under varied …

Although the evolution of dislocation substructure during ratcheting deformation has been
previously studied in 316LN austenitic steel, studies on ratcheting-induced twinning and de …
