摘要

Fatigue behavior must be carefully considered while designing engineering components, particularly when subjected to multiaxial loadings in High-Cycle Fatigue (HCF). This work aims to find the fatigue limit for A357-T6, a cast aluminum alloy with a spherical pore under tension-torsion stress. The Crossland equivalent stress is calculated using finite element (FE) simulations, at the critical plane of about \({60}^{^\circ }\) of the tensile loading direction. The distance between the sample's interior and the spherical pore's tip is the Affected Depth (AD), computed for a surface spherical pore. The Kitagawa-Takahashi diagram is simulated for different spherical microstructures with a load ratio of \({R}_{\upsigma }\) =0.1, using the AD method. The experimental results and these simulations show a significant correlation.
