Abstract:
Existing data driven low-cycle fatigue (LCF) life prediction models exhibit limited attention to the heterogeneity of input features and relatively insufficient consideration of cyclic loading condition. This study introduces a novel approach based on a long short-term memory parallel hierarchical neural network (LSTM-PHNN). Firstly, the input features are classified into three categories based on their physical significance and distribution characteristics: elemental parameters, microstructural property parameters, and loading parameters. Next, waveform features over a complete cycle are reconstructed for different loading parameters to characterize the impact of time-series cyclic loading condition on fatigue life. Finally, three predictive models were developed: a fully connected neural network (FCNN), a parallel hierarchical neural network (PHNN), and the proposed LSTMPHNN model. Comparative analysis was conducted using the small sample LCF dataset of 316L stainless steel. The results show that the proposed LSTM-PHNN model outperforms both the FCNN and PHNN models,with almost all predictive data falling within a scatter band of 1.5 times and the prediction accuracy on the test set reaching 0.954. The above demonstrate that the LSTM-PHNN model provides a highly accurate and robust method for predicting LCF life with a small amount of experimental data.
