The effects of sub-zero(-22C o ) cyclic rotating bending on the S-N behavior and cumulative damage are reported for 207-T4 aluminum alloy .Experimental characterization of fatigue behavior showed that the S-N curves behavior may described by the following Basquin's formulas:At room temperature (RT) And At sub-zero temperature (-22C o ) From the above equation, the fatigue behavior can be change at and . Slightly increase in fatigue life results above 204 MPa and slightly decrease in fatigue below the 204 MPa stress level. A non-linear experimental law is introduced for the accumulation of damage at sub-zero temperature variable fatigue. This law gave conservative and safe fatigue life time prediction when applying to the data of variable fatigue at low temperature (-22 C o ).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
