Notches introduced in the plain specimen result in the multiaxial state of stress that exists in the actual components due to the presence of flaws and defects. In the present work, low cycle fatigue life estimation of plain and notched specimens of 316 LN stainless steel is carried out at room temperature and 823 K. The plain and notched specimens with different notch radii were subjected to varying strain amplitudes ranging from ± 0.25 to ± 1.0% at a strain rate of 3 × 10{sup −3} s{sup −1}. The fatigue life decreased in the presence of notch for all strain amplitudes at both the temperatures. The decrease in fatigue life was found to be more at room temperature than at 823 K. The fatigue life of the notched specimen decreased by approximately 94.2% compared to plain specimen at room temperature. However, at 823 K the decrease in fatigue life for notched specimen was approximately 84.6%. Low cycle fatigue life of the plain and notched specimens was estimated by Neuber’s rule and finite element analysis approach. Neuber’s rule overestimated the fatigue life by maximum factor of 2.6 for specimens at room temperature and by maximum factor of 5 for specimens at 823 K. However, it gives closer approximation at higher strain amplitudes at 823 K. Life estimation by finite element analysis at room temperature was within a factor of 1.5 as compared to experimental life, whereas it underestimated the fatigue life within a factor of 6 at high temperature.
