Abstract
The paper gives the research findings which make it possible to construct an algorithm for the residual life assessment within the framework of a tensor approach to describing damage in a material under inelastic deformation. The authors propose explicit finite criterial relationships for the residual life assessment, which extend the known relationships to cover a wider range of loading processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
