By means of this intermixture parameter load sequences for fatigue tests can be generated closer to reality and thus more reliable as well as effects resulting from loading sequences can be taken into account quantitatively in life calculations. The intermixture parameter has been calculated for 17 test laod sequences. The corresponding fatigue test results obtained for notched specimens (K sub t 1.4 up to 3.6) made from steels or aluminium alloys either under bending or axial loading, led to a general relation between intermixture and fatigue life being primarily influenced by the stress ratio.dealuminiumBelastungsreihenfolgecounting methodDurchmischungestimationfatigue lifegekerbte ProbeintermixtureLebensdauerabschätzunglocal stress strain approachNennspannungskonzeptnominal stress approachnotched specimenörtliches Spannungsdehnungskonzeptsequence of loadingsimulationStahlsteelZählverfahrenReihenfolgeMarkov ProzessWerkstoffeigenschaft620report
