  1. Over the Next Several Days • What is fatigue? • Types of Fatigue Loading • Empirical Data • Estimating Endurance/Fatigue Strength • Strategies for Analysis • Uniaxial Fully Reversed • Uniaxial Fluctuating • Multiaxial • Crack Growth

  2. Some History • Rail car axles • The all-important microcrack • Role of stress concentrations • Comet airplanes

  3. Three Stages of Fatigue Failure • Crack Initiation • Crack Propagation • oscillating stress… crack grows, stops growing, grows, stops growing… with crack growth due to tensile stresses • Fracture • sudden, brittle-like failure

  4. Identifying Fatigue Fractures beachmarks

  5. Three Theories

  6. ships, planes, vehicle chassis Low vs. High Cycle >103 cycles, high cycle fatigue car crank shaft – manufacturing equipment @ 100 rpm – ~2.5 E8 Rev/105 miles 1.25 E8 Rev/year <103 cycles, low cycle fatigue

  7. Types of Fatigue Loading Fully Reversed Repeated Fluctuating stress range amplitude ratio alternating component mean component stress ratio

  8. Update • What is fatigue? • Types of Fatigue Loading • Empirical Data • Estimating Endurance/Fatigue Strength • Strategies for Analysis • Uniaxial Fully Reversed • Uniaxial Fluctuating • Multiaxial • Crack Growth

  9. Testing Fatigue Properties • Rotating Beam – most data is from this type • Axial • lower or higher? Why? • Cantilever • Torsion

  10. Fully Reversed Empirical Data An S-N Curve (Stress-Life) Wrought Steel

  11. Fully Reversed Empirical Data Aluminum

  12. Endurance Limit A stress level below which a material can be cycled infinitely without failure Many materials have an endurance limit: low-strength carbon and alloy steels, some stainless steels, irons, molybdenum alloys, titanium alloys, and some polymers Many other materials DO NOT have an endurance limit: aluminum, magnesium, copper, nickel alloys, some stainless steels, high-strength carbon and alloy steels for these, we use a FATIGUE STRENGTH defined for a certain number of cycles (5E8 is typical)

  13. Update • What is fatigue? • Types of Fatigue Loading • Empirical Data • Estimating Endurance/Fatigue Strength • Strategies for Analysis • Uniaxial Fully Reversed • Uniaxial Fluctuating • Multiaxial • Crack Growth

  14. Types of Fatigue Loading Fully Reversed Repeated Fluctuating stress range amplitude ratio alternating component mean component stress ratio

  15. Getting Fatigue Data • Test a prototype • Test the exact material used • Published fatigue data • Use static data to estimate

  16. Estimating Se´ From Static Data see page 345 in your book… steels irons aluminums BUT, these are all for highly polished, circular rotating beams of a certain size

  17. Correction Factors pages 348-353 in your book

  18. Constructing Estimated S-N Curves The material strength at 103 cycles, Sm: Sm=0.9Sut for bending Sm=0.75Sut for axial loading The line from Sm to Se or Sf, Sn=aNb or logSn=loga + blogN

  19. Fatigue Stress Concentration Kf = 1+q(Kt-1) q = notch sensitivity function of material, Sut, Neuber constant, a notch radius, r

  28. Does Mean Stress Matter?

  29. Failure Yield modified-Goodman Gerber Soderberg Safety Fluctuating Stress Failure Plot a constructed for a given number of cycles N Sy Se or Sf m Sy Sut

  30. The Data

  31. “Augmented” Modified-Goodman Plot a Sy Se or Sf m Syc Sy Sut von Mises calculated for a and for m separately

  32. Factors of Safety • Four cases • a constant, m varies • a varies, m constant • a and m increase at constant ratio • a and m increase independently • If you know how the stress can vary, only use one of four cases • If stress can vary in any manner, Case 4 should be used (the most conservative)
