A new fatigue life prediction model is developed for composite laminates based on both infrared thermographic data and stiffness degradation process. The fatigue limit is firstly determined by the improved thermographic method and then a two-parameter function is proposed to describe the normalized stiffness degradation of specimens subjected to various maximum loading stresses. These two parameters can be calibrated by the stiffness degradation data and stabilized temperature data. Thereafter, the calibrated model can be used to predict S-N curve. The proposed model is applied the experimental data from literature and the results show that the predicted S-N curve has a well agreement with the experimental one.
