  7. HCF (High-cycleFatigue) The Haigh diagram has been set up by standardised testing using a standardised test specimen, for instance: Polished In most data tables, a specimen diameter of 10 mm has beenused

  8. I. Surface roughness Roughsurfaces are moredangerous in fatiguethansmoothsurfaces Iffatigue data havebeenmeasured on ideallysmooth (polished) specimens, howcanweusethem for a not so ideallysmooth specimen? sa Reduction! sFL=su (sFLP,sFLP) =(sup,sup) k·su (sup,k·sup) sUTS=sB sm

  9. Surface roughness, cont. In this example, (a) polished surface (b) groundsurface (c) machinedsurface (d) ’notch’ (e) hot-rolledsurface (f) corrosion in tap water (g) corrosion in salt water (all are for steel materials) • Note that: • Fatigueproperties are dramaticallyworsened under corrosiveconditions [(f) and (g)] • The highertensilestrength the steel has, the more sensitive it is to surfaceconditions • A bad surfacecan be verydestructive

  10. II. Loadedvolume The risk of failure for a given loadincreases with the amount of material loaded (Weibull statistics – the largervolume of material is loaded, the morelikely is it that a fatally bad material pointexists) Again, if the actualcaseloads a different volumethan the standardised test specimen, we must thereforereduce the Haigh diagram. sa sFL=su (sFLP,sFLP) =(sup,sup) d·su (sup,d·sup) sUTS=sB sm

  11. Loadedvolume, cont. (a) sUTS= 1500 Mpa (b)sUTS= 1000 MPa (c)sUTS= 600 MPa (d)sUTS= 400 MPa Steel with (e)aluminium alloy Note: this effect is usually less than that of surfacecondition

  12. III. Stress concentrations Ifthereexists a local region of raisedstress,this region is of coursedangerous from the point of view of fatigue. The maximum stress in such a region can be computed by usingstress concentrationfactorKtdiagrams. One example is shown in the figure

  13. Stress concentrations, cont. The same reasoning as beforeaboutvolumes and statistical risks can be applied. Since the volumehaving high stress is small, weneed not take the full stress concentrationfactorKtintoaccount; insteadwedefine a fatiguestrengthreductionfactor q = notchsensitivityfactor; depends on the notchradius and the tensilestrength of the material

  14. Stress concentrations, continued In the diagram to the left, all curves are for steel. (a)sUTS = 1600 Mpa (b)sUTS = 1300 Mpa (c)sUTS = 1000 Mpa (d)sUTS = 700 Mpa (e)sUTS = 400 Mpa Noteagain that highersUTS⇒ higherq ⇒ highersensitivity to high stresses in notches

  15. Stress concentrations, cont. Kt and Kf are nowused for increasing the nominal stress state: Nominal: To be carriedinto the reducedHaigh diagram ⇒ Increased: sa sFL=su (sFLP,sFLP) = (sup,sup) (Ktsm,Kfsa) (sm,sa) sUTS=sB sm

  16. Further, oneusuallydoesnot allowloadsabove the yieldstrength. I.e., the linecorresponding to is alsoentered in the Haigh diagram: sa Y su (Ktsm,Kfsa) (sup,sup) (sm,sa) sUTS=sB sm Y Finallyallowed stress states

  17. Safetyagainstfatigue Study the loadpoint P (Ktsm, Kfsa). Draw a straight line OC’ from the originthrough the loadpoint to the Intersection with the limit of the allowed region. Define ’allowedlength’/’usedlength’ as safetyfactor: sa su (sup,sup) C’ P O sB sm

  18. Safetyagainstfatigue Study the loadpoint P (Ktsm, Kfsa). Alternatively: Draw a straight line DB’ from the saaxisthrough the load point to the intersection with the limit of the allowed region. Define ’allowedlength’/’usedlength’ as safetyfactor: sa su (sup,sup) B’ D P O sm sUTS=sB

  19. Safetyagainstfatigue Study the loadpoint P (Ktsm, Kfsa). Another alternative: Draw a verticalline AA’ from the originthrough the load point to the intersection with the limit of the allowed region. Define ’allowedlength’/’usedlength’ as safetyfactor: sa su (sup,sup) A’ P O A sm sUTS=sB

  24. The same reasoning as beforeaboutvolumes and statistical risks can be applied. Thus, weneed not take the full stress concentrationfactorKtintoaccount; insteadwedefine a fatiguestrengthreductionfactor where the notchsensitivityfactorqdepends on the notchradius and the tensilestrength of the material
