Abstract:We conducted a study on fatigue in flat samples of the VT3-1 titanium alloy using “soft” cyclic beam bending tests. For this purpose, we developed an innovative electromagnetic test bench. The test bench's electromechanical system induces mechanical vibrations at a frequency that matches the eigenfrequency of the sample, ensuring that the cyclic load frequency remains constant. The electromagnetic force bends the sample while the elastic force unbends it, producing a quasi-sinusoidal cyclic load. Through our i… Show more
