Simultaneously, the effects of mean stress, additional hardening behavior related to non-proportional loading paths and stress gradients on multiaxial high-cycle fatigue are taken into account in the proposed approach. The approach is an extension of the general stress field intensity. For a better comparison, existing multiaxial high-cycle fatigue criteria were employed to predict the endurance limits of different metallic materials subjected to different multiaxial loading paths, and it is shown that present proposal performs better from statistical value of error indexes, which make the proposed approach of corrected stress field intensity and its associated concepts provide a new conception to predict endurance limits of multiaxial high-cycle fatigue with high accuracy.展开更多
