Statistical analysis of experimental study results on low-cycle fatigue resistance for the EI698-VD high-temperature alloy

The results of low-cycle fatigue tests of smooth cylindrical specimens made of the EI698-VD nickel-base high-temperature alloy widely used in aircraft engine industry are considered statistically. The influence of such factors as an initial level of mechanical properties, operating time and temperature of tests is evaluated. The experimental data on low-cycle fatigue (LCF) are used when determining the cyclic life for disks.
