Compression Spring Fatigue

An explanation on why spring specifications set maximum allowed stress far below the material yield point or stress limit. How to predict compression spring cycle life. How to calculate compression spring failure due to fatigue. Compare spring cycle times from one thousand to one million cycles. Plastic and elastic deformation. Reduction in maximum allowable material stress due to dynamic loading. This video is part of a playlist detailing how to design compression springs.
Stress amplitude, stress magnitude, one test cycle, shift stress, yield stress, maximum operating stress, plastic deformation, stress concentration or concentrator.

    Where did you find the data for the 1st slide? (7 seconds in)

    Various sources. I am aware many stress calculators and manufacturers will give a greater allowance (60%+ depending on the material). But this lesser recommendation is based on springs with a long cycle life.

    i have a question and find a mistake. 10:23 mistake >>> N=(Sref/a)1/b is correct. 10:40 mistake too >> N=(S2/a)1/b is correct and question is 8:40 Why are you squaring (1/6-3) here? The term just above doesn't have a square, I'm curious as to why. Using Google Translate, the words may be strange. Please understand.

    @@SanTen11 The figures are from researching a few sources for the material reference data. The best thing for you to do next is look at the scenario you are designing for and check whether a higher tensile limit is acceptable. Check 3 or 4 research sources for material data and fatigue calculation. Select the method that works for you

    Cycles to failure formula N=b√a/S2. If I put at calculator means value comes at negative -0.2006 comes what is the correct way to calculate this one

    b needs to be negative before calculating. Try the exact calculation in the video before altering anything to ensure you are aligned

    @@srinivasanv6573 It all depends on what type of industry you are in. Start with basic general engineering books and work from there. This will give you a good foundation. Also look up specific subjects related to your role. After allot of searching, you will end up with 4 or 5 books that work really well for your needs that you'll refer to over and over again.
