The replica technique is used to examine the short crack growth behavior under pure LCF and LCF/HCF loading. The observed short crack growth evolution explains the observed lifetime reduction with increasing HCF amplitudes.encast aluminium alloylow cycle fatiguethermomechanical fatiguesuperimposed HCFreplica technique620journal article
