| Abstract: | Crack propagation in full plastic regions is one of the main aspects of fatigue life design for components subjected to high strain concentrations. Residual life assessment for those components, in which high stress concentrations cause cyclic yielding of the material, can be considered as a crack propagation problem by assuming crack growth from the first load cycle. The aim of this paper is to study the crack growth behaviour of short cracks in low cycle fatigue under a multiaxial loading condition. In particular, a series of experiments in LCF regime at room temperature was performed to determine crack growth during axial, torsional and axial-torsional tests. Crack advancement was checked with the plastic replica technique, during test interruptions. Experimental results were compared, in terms of crack growth rates and fatigue life assessment, with those analytically calculated, considering different multiaxial fatigue parameters introduced in an exponential crack growth law and an approach based on the multiaxial cyclic J-Integral concept.
