Understanding Fatigue Failure and S-N Curves

Ғылым және технология

Fatigue failure is a failure mechanism which results from the formation and growth of cracks under repeated cyclic stress loading, leading to fracture. It can result in failure at stress levels well below the material yield or ultimate strengths.
In this video I discuss the mechanisms behind fracture, and how S-N curves can be used to predict the fatigue life of a component.
I also discuss the effect of having a tensile mean stress, and how we can use techniques like the Rainflow counting method and Miner's rule to consider complex cyclic stresses.

    HELLO, I have an exam in 2 and a half hours. Can you tell me why the initial fatigue results are scattered? Cant find the answer anywhere. Great video otherwise!! Thankyou!!

    Hi Peter! Most of the scatter will typically arise in the crack initiation phase, where there is more variability, than in the crack growth phase. This initial phase will be sensitive to things like the surface conditions of the test piece. Of course there will also be some variability associated with the test, e.g. the equipment that is used. Hope that helps - good luck with the exam!

    I had a poorly packaged pipe shipped to me crack from either reaching tensile strength, cycle fatigue, or both because it wasn’t strapped down and it was fully constrained at one end. So while riding on the truck it freely bounced up and down, like a spring until failure. Now I’m writing the FMEA report. Calculations showed it may have reached plastic deformation elsewhere if tensile strength was reached, let alone ultimate strength. Now have to measure crack size for comparison. Thank you for the useful review!

    Thank you very much for the video!! After I watched your video, I realized that most of the professors at a 4-year research university don't know how to teach!!! I cry 😢 because videos like this didn't exist when I attended college. P.S. I graduate from college back in the year 2010 by the way. Back then KZread was just 5 years old in my graduating years, meaning it was still relatively new, and learning engineering concepts from youtube back then weren't as common as today. There weren't that many videos that are educational and can teach me engineering either back then. All I can say is: college students nowadays are such a group of lucky fellows.

    On the stress amplitude graphs at 4:15, you should’ve plotted some of the other theories, especially since the Goodman line and Gerber Line do not guarantee infinite life, as they can fail from going past the yield point of a material, giving them finite life. This is true for most theories, but especially true for these
