  2. Fatigue (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_(material)

    With body-centered cubic materials (bcc), the Wöhler curve often becomes a horizontal line with decreasing stress amplitude, i.e. there is a fatigue strength that can be assigned to these materials. With face-centered cubic metals (fcc), the Wöhler curve generally drops continuously, so that only a fatigue limit can be assigned to these ...

  3. Vibration fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_fatigue

    Vibration fatigue is a mechanical engineering term describing material fatigue, caused by forced vibration of random nature. An excited structure responds according to its natural-dynamics modes, which results in a dynamic stress load in the material points. [ 1 ]

  4. Fatigue limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_limit

    The fatigue limit or endurance limit is the stress level below which an infinite number of loading cycles can be applied to a material without causing fatigue failure. [1] Some metals such as ferrous alloys and titanium alloys have a distinct limit, [ 2 ] whereas others such as aluminium and copper do not and will eventually fail even from ...

  5. Thermo-mechanical fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermo-Mechanical_Fatigue

    Fatigue alone is the driving cause of failure in this case, causing the material to fail before oxidation can have much of an effect. [1] TMF still is not fully understood. There are many different models to attempt to predict the behavior and life of materials undergoing TMF loading. The two models presented below take different approaches.

  6. Low-cycle fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-cycle_fatigue

    ε f ' is an empirical constant known as the fatigue ductility coefficient defined by the strain intercept at 2N =1; c is an empirical constant known as the fatigue ductility exponent, commonly ranging from -0.5 to -0.7. Small c results in long fatigue life. ς f ' is a constant known as the fatigue strength coefficient

  7. Fatigue testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_testing

    The wing was tested for a total of 47500 flights which is 2.5 times the number of flights in 25 years of operation. Each 16 hour flight took 11 minutes to simulate on the fatigue test rig. [1] Fatigue testing is a specialised form of mechanical testing that is performed by applying cyclic loading to a coupon or structure.
