Abstract
The paper presents results of experimental investigations to assess the effect of Mode I and II thermomechanical preloading on the crack resistance of specimens in fourpoint bending tests Specimens were subjected to Mode I and II repeated loading The investigations were carried out on heatresistant reactor steels An algorithm for the numerical assessment of fracture toughness with allowance for thermomechanical preloading under mixed loading conditions is proposed
