The test results of a 8.26-in-dia ball bearing under 51,000-lb axial load at 3710 rpm are discussed. A Weibull plot of the contact fatigue data showed about 6.95 times A FBMA life, a result to be expected with vacuum-melted M50 material and MIL-L-7808 lubricant. Due to high bending stresses, the fatigue spalls initiated ring fracture. Calculation and measurement of these stresses are discussed.

The paper considers the effect of lubricant viscosity, ν, on the contact fatigue life, N, in gearing applications. More than 40 sets of the thermal non-Newtonian EHL numerical calculations and six sets of disc fatigue tests under the conditions ranging from the mixed to full film lubrication are used. The results show that for improving gearing fatigue life it is generally useful to increase lubricant viscosity. But it is not simply the case that the higher the lubricant viscosity, the better. When lubricant viscosity, ν, is less than a critical value, νcr, a quantitative relation of is seen in the test results; When ν > νcr, however, increasing lubricant viscosity is found to reduce the fatigue life. Based on this result, the paper raises questions concerning the accuracy of the lubrication factor recommended by ISO/6336:1996.

In the plasma-carburizing method, the detrimental grain boundary oxides in the surface of the materials and sooting problems are eliminated and the high carbon content near the surface is easily achieved. This paper describes a study on the contact fatigue strength and wear characteristics of plasma-carburized rollers. Test rollers made of super-carburizing steel MAC14 and conventional carburizing steel SCM415 were plasma-super-carburized under different carburizing conditions. The contact fatigue tests were carried out for these plasma-super-carburized rollers. The effects of case depths on the contact fatigue strength of these rollers were determined. The effect of shot-peening on the contact fatigue strength was also examined by carrying out contact fatigue tests for shot-peened rollers. The wear tests were also carried out and then the wear characteristics of test rollers were determined. These test results for plasma-super-carburized rollers were compared with the results for gas-super- or gas-eutectoid-carburized rollers.

Automobile body sheets mainly resist impact and pressure. However, the fatigue property is one of the main factors with regard to properties of sheet steels. Continuous vibration happens all over the sheet steels (especially chassis) while the vehicle is in motion. And the fatigue property becomes particularly important in the condition above. Fatigue tests are conducted to four kinds of thin sheet steels for automobile in this paper. The fatigue lives of samples from sheet steels are obtained according to the various stresses. The inferior limits of fatigue life and the inferior limits of fatigue strength under the higher stresses are acquired by the computation of fatigue data. Furthermore, the test results show that there is a certain relationship among the tensile strength, yielding strength and inferior limit of fatigue strength for these sheet steels. This paper is of certain reference significance for other similar test.

Abstract The bonding state of the asphalt layers in a road pavement structure significantly affects its fatigue life. These bondings, therefore, require detailed tests and optimization. In this paper, the analyses of the correlation between the results of laboratory static tests and the results of fatigue tests of asphalt mixture interlayer bondings were performed. The existence of the relationships between selected parameters was confirmed. In the future, the results of these analyses may allow for assessment of interlayer bondings’ fatigue life based on the results of quick and relatively easy static tests.

Fatigue tests are carried out for 16MnR welded joint under constant strain control. Test results reveal that 16MnR weld metal exhibits characteristic of cyclic softening and non-masing obviously. The strain–life curve can be best described by the three-parameter equation. It shows the fatigue endurance limit in the heat-affecting zone (HAZ) of welded joint is lower than that in the weld metal.

In order to explore influence on tribological behavior of PEEK composite film layer in PEEK-PTFE composite radial alumina ball bearings, rolling contact fatigue tests were performed by using the PEEK bearing’s inner rings with the artificial defects in dry condition. When rotation speed and applied load were 600 rpm and 98 N, the number of cycles of the PEEK-PTFE bearings reached 1.0×107 fatigue cycles. The artificial defects with 0.02 mm depth on the raceway surface of the PEEK inner ring was covered with PEEK composite film accumulation.

Pretensioned concrete beams are widely used as bridge girders for simply supported bridges. Understanding the fatigue behavior of such beams is very important for design and construction to prevent fatigue failure. The fatigue behavior of pretensioned concrete beams is mainly influenced by the fatigue of the prestressing strands. The evaluation of previous test results from the literature indicated a reduced fatigue life in the long-life region compared with current design methods and specifications. Therefore, nine additional high-cycle fatigue tests were conducted on pretensioned concrete beams with strand stress ranges of about 100 MPa (14.5 ksi). The test results confirmed that current design methods and specifications overestimate the fatigue life of embedded strands in pretensioned concrete beams.

A framework was presented for a fatigue failure model of fibrous composites using a multiscale approach, which uses the fatigue data of the fiber and matrix materials, respectively. Using this model, fatigue failure of fibrous composite materials and structures can be predicted from the constituent material behaviors. To that end, fiber bundles were tested under cyclic loading to determine their residual strength and stiffness. A successful completion of the model is expected to replace many fatigue tests as the configuration of the fibrous composite is varied.

Strain controlled constant and variable amplitude fatigue tests for 316NG and Titanium stabilized stainless steels in low oxygen PWR waters were performed. The stabilized steel has been plant aged for 100 000 hours. Constant amplitude test results at 0,01 Hz sinusoidal straining comply with predicted lives according to the Fen approach for both materials. Spectrum straining both in air and in environment caused predicted life reduction factors (about 3) for the stabilized steel, but for the 316NG steel spectrum straining in environment resulted to a larger reduction in life.
