Abstract
A significant increase in the cleavage fracture toughness of 1Cr-Mo-V rotor steel due to cyclic loading was observed. A new model that is capable of predicting and explaining the observation is proposed. The model combines macroscopic fracture criteria with the assumption that transient flow properties of a material in the cyclic plastic zone can be represented by those of the material subjected to macroscopic low cycle fatigue under fully reversed strain control.
