Abstract
The residual stress relaxation behaviour in low-cycle fatigue brings uncertainty to accurately predict fatigue life. Therefore, establishing the residual stress relaxation model for the welded structure is critical. In this paper, the residual stress is simulated through Abaqus finite element software (6.14). The residual stress relaxation model related to the magnitude of cyclic loading and the number of cycles is proposed. Furthermore, the residual stress relaxation model is applied to predict low-cycle fatigue life. Finally, the simulation results are validated by experimental data obtained using the reliable neutron diffraction method, and a good agreement is observed.
