Chapter 5 – Design for Different Types of Loading • Part 1 – Types of stress and loading, stress ratio, endurance strength, design factors • Part 2 – Failure theories • E. R. Evans, Jr./ R. Michael • MET 210W
Static Load F and P are applied and remain constant Stress Stress Ratio, R = 1.0 Time
Dynamic Stress: • Loads that vary during normal service of the product produce dynamic stress. • Dynamic stress can be cyclic or random. • High cycle fatigue – part subject to millions of stress cycles. Examples: Parts subject to dynamic stress?
Cyclic loads produce cyclic stress which can lead to mechanical fatigue failure: Mechanical Fatigue = The progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading. The cyclic stress is well below tensile, Su and yield, Sy , strengths!
Types of Cyclic Stress: • Repeated and Reversed (i.e. RR Moore, rotating shafts, etc.) – mean stress = 0. • Fluctuating stress (mean stress not zero): • Tensile mean stress (can cycle between tension and compression or all tension) • Compressive mean stress (can cycle between tension and compression or all compression) • Repeated, one-direction stress
Definitions: = Alternating stress = Mean stress = R value: R = 0, repeated and one direction, i.e. stress cycles from 0 to max value. R =-1, Fully reversed (R-R Moore)
1.Repeated & Reversed Stress • an element subjected to a repeated and alternating tensile and compressive stresses. Continuous total load reversal over time Demo: Switch to Excel
1.Repeated and Reversed Stress The average or mean stress is zero.
Cyclic loading. (a) Very low amplitude acoustic vibration. (b) High-cycle fatigue: cycling well below general yield, sy. (c) Low cycle fatigue: cycling abovegeneral yield (but below the tensile strength sts). All stresses above are repeated and reversed (R = -1)
Fatigue Testing • Bending tests • R-R More = Spinning bending elements – most common. • Fast, cost effective, pure bending stress • See: http://www.instron.co.uk/wa/solutions/rotating_beam_fatigue.aspx
Fatigue Testing • Bending tests • Sontag = Constant stress cantilever beams • Good for flat stock (sheets) • Get shear stress in addition to bending stress. Top View Specimen
Fatigue Testing Test Data Stress, s (ksi) Number of Cycles to Failure, N Data from R. B. Englund, 2/5/93
Endurance • Endurance strength is the stress level that a material can survive for a given number of load cycles. • Endurance limit isthe stress level that a material can survive for an infinite number of load cycles. • Estimate for Wrought Steel: Endurance Strength = 0.50(Su) • Most nonferrous metals (aluminum) do not have an endurance limit.
Representative Endurance Strengths Estimated endurance strength of steel is about 0.50 * Su
2. Fluctuating Stress • When an element experiences alternating stress, but the mean stress is NOT zero. Load varies between P and Q over time
2.Fluctuating Stress Example • Bending of Rocker Arm Valve Spring Force Valve Open Valve Closed • Tension in Valve Stem Valve Closed Valve Spring Force Valve Open RBE 2/1/91 Adapted from R. B. Englund
Tensile Stress w/ Tensile Mean • Case 1:
Partially Reversed w/ Tensile Mean • Case 2: smax is tensile and smin is compressive
Partially Reversed w/ Compressive Mean • Case 3: smax is tensile and smin is compressive
Compressive Stress w/ Compressive Mean • Case 4: smax and smin are both compressive
Repeated – One Direction Stress • Case 5:

Stages of Fatigue: • Micro structural changes – nucleation of permanent damage (mm) • Creation of microscopic cracks (mm) • Growth and coalescence of cracks into dominant crack (striations). • Stable crack growth (Beach marks) • Instability and rapid failure (area goes down, stress goes up eventually exceeding tensile strength).
Stages of Fatigue: • Micro structural changes – nucleation of permanent damage (mm) • Creation of microscopic cracks (mm) These two steps = crack initiation = 99% of the total life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Key: prevent cracks from forming at surface!!!!!!!!!!

The endurance limit plotted against the tensile strength. Almost all materials fail in fatigue at stresses well below the tensile strength.
