The fatigue life estimation of notched specimens under random loading

Prediction of Fatigue Life in Notched Specimens Using Multiaxial Fatigue Criteria

In this research, the effects of notch shape on the fatigue strength of 2024-T3 aluminum alloy notched specimens have been studied using experimental and multiaxial fatigue analysis. For this purpose, four set of specimens with different notch shape were prepared and then fatigue tests were carried out at various cyclic longitudinal load levels. Load controlled fatigue tests of mentioned specim...

Effect of the Loading Spectrum and History Length on Fatigue Life Distribution under Random Loading

One major source of error commonly encountered in determining the fatigue life of a given element arises from the loads involved, which are usually of random nature. As a rule, resistance analyses, carried out by simulation or tests, are done by using a loading history accounting for the real loads involved that is repeated indefinitely until failure is encountered. The result is one of the man...

Thermomechanical Fatigue Life Prediction of Notched

estimation of thrust stand structure fatigue life under solid motors random vibrations effects

successful development, evaluation, and qualification of propulsion systems such as turbojet and turbofan engines and rocket motors require the measurement of the performance and reliability of these systems. thrust stands or testers are instruments for solid and liquid motors test. in this paper, a method for calculating of solid motors random vibrations effects on a thrust stand structure is ...

High-cycle fatigue life prediction for Pb-free BGA under random vibration loading

This paper develops an assessment methodology based on vibration tests and finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the fatigue life of electronic components under random vibration loading. A specially designed PCB with ball grid array (BGA) packages attached was mounted to the electro-dynamic shaker and was subjected to different vibration excitations at the supports. An event detector monitor...
