Estimation of Fatigue Life of Materials with Out-of-Parallel Fatigue Characteristics under Block Loading

Abstract:

The paper presents the algorithm of fatigue life estimation for materials with out-of-parallel fatigue characteristics under block loading. Brass CuZn40Pb2, medium-alloy steel 30CrNiMo8 and high-alloy steel 35NCD16 belong to such materials. Brass CuZn40Pb2 was used for analysis. The experimental results were compared with those calculated according to the assumed model, and satisfactory results were obtained.
