Original Abstract

The work focuses on predictive capabilities of fundamental cyclic plasticity and fatigue life models, which can be calibrated using limited amount of experiments as specific ones needed for more advanced models are often absent. The analyses are conducted for the synthetic case of exhaust manifold made from cast iron. The thermal boundary conditions from the forced convection were obtained from the computational fluid dynamics considered as a conjugate heat transfer problem. Two rate-independent and temperature-dependent material models were calibrated for structural analyses. Both were validated with experiments on isothermal and anisothermal levels. Sequential thermal–mechanical finite element simulations were performed. Two fatigue life models were employed. The first was a temperature-dependent strain-based fatigue life criterion calibrated from uniaxial data. The second was a temperature-independent energy-based fatigue life criterion resulting in twice lower life than the strain-based criterion, while none of the plasticity models made a significant difference in that prediction.
