Elastic-plastic finite element analyses of a cylinder-on-plate configuration, studied experimentally, were performed to provide an explanation for the decrease in fretting fatigue life with increasing contact pressure. Three values of normal load, namely 1338 N, 2230 N, and 3567 N, and three stress ratios (0.1, 0.5, and 0.7) were considered. Based on a previously determined dependency between contact pressure and friction coefficient, the effect of coefficient of friction was also evaluated. The deformation remained elastic under all conditions examined. Cyclic, interfacial stresses, and slips were analyzed in detail. The amplification of remotely applied cyclic stress in the contact region is shown to provide a rationale for the effect of contact pressure and stress amplitude on life. Comparisons with previous experiments indicate that the local stress range computed from finite element analysis may be sufficient for predicting fretting fatigue life. Further, the results suggest that the slip amplitude and shear traction may be neglected for this purpose.

Purpose This study aims to understand the multiaxial fretting fatigue, wear and fracture characteristics of 35CrMoA steel under the elliptical loading path. Design/methodology/approach By keeping the contact pressure and torsional shear cyclic stress amplitude unchanged; the axial cyclic stress amplitude varied from 650 MPa to 850 MPa. The fretting fatigue test was carried out on MTS809 testing machine, and the axial cyclic strain response and fatigue life of the material were analyzed. The fretting zone and fracture surface morphology were observed by scanning electron microscope. The composition of wear debris was detected by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. Findings In this study, with the increase of axial stress amplitude, 35CrMoA steel will be continuously softened, and the cyclic softening degree increases. The fretting fatigue life decreases unevenly. The fretting scars in the stick region are elongated in the axial direction. The area of fracture crack propagation zone decreases. In addition, the results indicate that wear debris in the slip region is spherical and has higher oxygen content. Originality/value There were few literatures about the multiaxial fretting fatigue behavior of 35CrMoA steel, and most scholars focused on the contact pressure. This paper reveals the effect of axial cyclic stress on fretting fatigue and wear of 35CrMoA steel under the elliptical loading path.

In this study, the effect of contact pressure on fretting fatigue behavior of Al7075-T6 under cyclic normal contact loading is investigated. It is found that fretting fatigue life for the case of cyclic contact load was significantly less than that for constant contact load at the same axial and contact load levels, particularly for High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) conditions. The results showed that the fretting fatigue life decreased monotonically with the increase in normal contact load for all axial stresses. Examination of the fretting scars was performed using optical microscopy and numerical simulation was carried out using commercial finite element (FE) codes ABAQUS[Formula: see text] and FRANC2D/L[Formula: see text] to calculate the crack propagation life. The crack initiation life was calculated by a combination of numerical and experimental results. Finally, the FE simulation was validated by a comparison between the numerical crack growth rate and the experimental measurement using replica.

The effect of contact pressure on fretting fatigue in quenched and tempered 45-carbon steel is studied. With an increase in contact pressure, fretting fatigue life is decreased quickly at low contact pressures; however it almost unchanged at high contact pressures. With an increase in cyclic stress amplitude, fretting fatigue life decreased. In the test, concavity is formed at the fretted area accompanying wear. The main crack is initiated at the outer edge corner of the concavity at high contact pressures, and initiated at the middle portion of the fretted area at low contact pressures.

The effects of microstructure and contact pressure on fretting fatigue characteristics of Ti-4.5Al-3V-2Mo-2Fe conducted with annealing at 1123 K and 1223 K were investigated in this study. Fretting fatigue tests in low and high cycle fatigue life regions of the alloys with equiaxed α and acicular α structures were carried out at each contact pressure of 10, 15, 30, 45, 75, 105 and 153 MPa. In the alloy with equiaxed α structure, fretting fatigue strength tends to be very low at contact pressures of 10 MPa and 15 MPa in low and high cycle fatigue life regions, respectively. Furthermore, fretting fatigue strength tends to be nearly constant at the contact pressure over 45 MPa in each fatigue life region. On the other hand, in the alloy with acicular α structure, fretting fatigue strength tends to be very low at contact pressures of 15 MPa and 30 MPa in low and high cycle fatigue life regions, respectively. Furthermore, fretting fatigue strength tends to be nearly constant at contact pressures of 45 MPa and over 30 MPa in low and high fatigue life regions, respectively.

The fretting fatigue behavior of the Ti 811titanium alloy, as influenced by temperature, slip amplitude, and contact pressure, was investigated using a high-frequency fatigue machine and a home-made high-temperature apparatus. The fretting fatigue failure mechanisms were studied by observing the fretting surface morphology features. The results show that the sensitivity to fretting fatigue is high at both 350°C and 500°C. The higher the temperature is, the more sensitive the alloy is to fretting fatigue failure. Creep is an important factor that influences the fretting fatigue failure process at elevated temperature. The fretting fatigue life of the Ti 811 alloy does not change in a monotonic way as the slip amplitude and contact pressure increase. This is due to the fact that the slip amplitude affects the action of fatigue and wear in the fretting process, and the nominal contact pressure affects the distribution and concentration of the stress and the amplitude of fretting slip at the contact surface, and thus further influences the crack initiation probability and the driving force for propagation.

The main objective of this work was to study the influence of the wear properties of two commercial alloys (CK45 and Al7175) on their fretting fatigue behavior. It is verified the effect of material local degradation by wear on a fatigue strength reduction factor, namely the stress concentration factor, and on the overall fretting fatigue life of these materials. The fretting fatigue phenomenon is a synergetic effect between wear and fatigue. It is dependent on both the fatigue and the wear properties of the materials. Material properties promoting an increase in wear resistance should enhance fretting fatigue life.
