Significance and Use4.1 Cycle counting is used to summarize (often lengthy)irregular load-versus-time histories by providing the number oftimes cycles of various sizes occur. The definition of a cyclevaries with the method of cycle counting. These practices coverthe procedu

21、res used to obtain cycle counts by various methods,including level-crossing counting, peak counting, simple-rangecounting, range-pair counting, and rainflow counting. Cyclecounts can be made for time histories of force, stress, strain,torque, acceleration, deflection, or other loading parameters ofi

22、nterest.5. Procedures for Cycle Counting5.1 Level-Crossing Counting:5.1.1 Results of a level-crossing count are shown in Fig.2(a). One count is recorded each time the positive slopedportion of the load exceeds a preset level above the referenceload, and each time the negative sloped portion of the l

23、oadexceeds a preset level below the reference load. Reference loadcrossings are counted on the positive sloped portion of theloading history. It makes no difference whether positive ornegative slope crossings are counted. The distinction is madeonly to reduce the total number of events by a factor o

24、f two.5.1.2 In practice, restrictions on the level-crossing countsare often specified to eliminate small amplitude variationswhich can give rise to a large number of counts. This may beaccomplished by filtering small load excursions prior to cyclecounting. A second method is to make no counts at the

25、reference load and to specify that only one count be madebetween successive crossings of a secondary lower levelassociated with each level above the reference load, or asecondary higher level associated with each level below thereference load. Fig. 2(b) illustrates this second method. Avariation of

26、the second method is to use the same secondarylevel for all counting levels above the reference load, andanother for all levels below the reference load. In this case thelevels are generally not evenly spaced.5.1.3 The most damaging cycle count for fatigue analysis isderived from the level-crossing

27、count by first constructing thelargest possible cycle, followed by the second largest, etc.,until all level crossings are used. Reversal points are assumedto occur halfway between levels. This process is illustrated byFig. 2(c). Note that once this most damaging cycle count isobtained, the cycles co

28、uld be applied in any desired order, andthis order could have a secondary effect on the amount ofdamage. Other methods of deriving a cycle count from thelevel-crossings count could be used.5.2 Peak Counting:5.2.1 Peak counting identifies the occurrence of a relativemaximum or minimum load value. Pea

29、ks above the referenceload level are counted, and valleys below the reference loadlevel are counted, as shown in Fig. 3(a). Results for peaks andvalleys are usually reported separately. A variation of thismethod is to count all peaks and valleys without regard to thereference load.5.2.2 To eliminate

30、 small amplitude loadings, mean-crossingpeak counting is often used. Instead of counting all peaks andvalleys, only the largest peak or valley between two successivemean crossings is counted as shown in Fig. 3(b).5.2.3 The most damaging cycle count for fatigue analysis isderived from the peak count

31、by first constructing the largestpossible cycle, using the highest peak and lowest valley,followed by the second largest cycle, etc., until all peak countsFIG. 1 Basic Fatigue Loading ParametersE1049 85 (2017)2are used. This process is illustrated by Fig. 3(c). Note that oncethis most damaging cycle

32、 count is obtained, the cycles could beapplied in any desired order, and this order could have asecondary effect on the amount of damage. Alternate methodsof deriving a cycle count, such as randomly selecting pairs ofpeaks and valleys, are sometimes used.5.3 Simple-Range Counting:5.3.1 For this meth

33、od, a range is defined as the differencebetween two successive reversals, the range being positivewhen a valley is followed by a peak and negative when a peakis followed by a valley. The method is illustrated in Fig. 4.Positive ranges, negative ranges, or both, may be counted withthis method. If onl

34、y positive or only negative ranges arecounted, then each is counted as one cycle. If both positive andnegative ranges are counted, then each is counted as one-halfcycle. Ranges smaller than a chosen value are usually elimi-nated before counting.5.3.2 When the mean value of each range is also counted

35、,the method is called simple range-mean counting. For theexample of Fig. 4, the result of a simple range-mean count isgiven in X1.1 in the form of a range-mean matrix.5.4 Rainflow Counting and Related Methods:5.4.1 A number of different terms have been employed inthe literature to designate cycle-co

36、unting methods which aresimilar to the rainflow method. These include range-pair(a)Level Crossing Counting(b)Restricted Level Crossing CountingFIG. 2 Level-Crossing Counting ExampleE1049 85 (2017)3counting (1, 2),4the Hayes method (3), the original rainflowmethod (4-6), range-pair-range counting (7)

37、, ordered overallrange counting (8), racetrack counting (9), and hysteresis loopcounting (10). If the load history begins and ends with itsmaximum peak, or with its minimum valley, all of these giveidentical counts. In other cases, the counts are similar, but notgenerally identical. Three methods in

38、 this class are definedhere: range-pair counting, rainflow counting, and a simplifiedmethod for repeating histories.5.4.2 The various methods similar to the rainflow methodmay be used to obtain cycles and the mean value of each cycle;they are referred to as two-parameter methods. When the meanvalue

39、is ignored, they are one-parameter methods, as aresimple-range counting, peak counting, etc.5.4.3 Range-Pair CountingThe range-paired methodcounts a range as a cycle if it can be paired with a subsequentloading in the opposite direction. Rules for this method are asfollows:5.4.3.1 Let X denote range
