The fatigue strain–life equation is in general applicable to isotropic materials. It was recently attempted to account for material anisotropy because of crystallographic texture in fatigue modelling. The proposed modification was limited to isotropic hardening. The present work is an extension of the previous work, wherein a general framework to model anisotropy using phenomenological yield criterion and anisotropic hardening is provided. Yld2004‐18p yield criterion and the so‐called homogenous anisotropic hardening model are used to demonstrate the anisotropic cyclic behaviour of low carbon steel. The proposed methodology can be utilized in applications including multiaxial fatigue modelling.
