APPLICATION
Thermo-Mechanical
Fatigue Testing - TMF
TMF is a major cause of component failure in
industrial machinery and structures exposed to
temperature conditions and mechanical loads
that change over time.
TMF affects a range of components, including train wheels
and brakes, aircraft and ship engines, components used in gas
turbines for power generation and compressors for gas and
oil pipelines.
International Standards
ASTM E2368-04
Standard Practice for
Strain Controlled TMF-Testing
•
This practice covers the determination of thermo mechanical fatigue (TMF) properties of
materials under uniaxially loaded strain-controlled conditions. A “thermo mechanical”
fatigue cycle is here defined as a condition where uniform temperature and strain fields
over the specimen gage section are simultaneously varied and independently controlled.
This practice is intended to address TMF testing performed in support of such activities
as materials research and development, mechanical design, process and quality control,
product performance, and failure analysis. While this practice is specific to strain-controlled testing, many sections will provide useful information for force-controlled or stresscontrolled TMF testing.
•
This practice allows for any maximum and minimum values of temperature and mechanical strain, and temperature-mechanical strain phasing, with the restriction being that
such parameters remain cyclically constant throughout the duration of the test. No restrictions are placed on environmental factors such as pressure, humidity, environmental
medium, and others, provided that they are controlled throughout the test, do not cause
loss of or change in specimen dimensions in time, and are detailed in the data report.
•
The use of this practice is limited to specimens and does not cover testing of full-scale
components, structures, or consumer products.
European Standard
The International Organisation for Standardization (ISO) set up a working group to draft a TMF
testing standard. Progress towards achieving a balanced document has been hampered because of the lack of pre-normative R&D. The aim of this study is to coordinate EU input to the
ISO working group and to provide the technical basis that will enable researchers to define all
test-related aspects of the draft standard.

Typical System
Configuration of a
TMF - Testing System
In a TMF test the stress and strain applied to
a specimen are varied independently of the
temperature.
Two main types of tests
are usually conducted
•
•
In-Phase TMF
The maximum value of temperature
and the maximum value of mechanical
strain occur at the same time .
Out-of-Phase TMF
The maximum value of temperature
leads the maximum value of mechanical strain by a time value.
