Verification of Methods Used for Fatigue Testing of Small Steel Specimens Taken from Existing Structures

Abstract:

This paper presents results of fatigue tests performed on standard specimens and minispecimens taken from two EN 1.4301 acid-resistant steel plates of different thickness. The tests were required for determination of the state of vibrating machines made from the same material. The results confirmed that the proposed testing method can be used for experimental tests.
