Fatigue Crack Growth Rate under Different Bending to Torsion Ratios in 10HNAP Steel

2011

The paper contains the fatigue test results of rectangular cross-section specimens made of 10HNAP steel. The specimen height to width ratio was 1.5. Bending with torsion tests were carried out for the following ratios of bending to torsional moments MaB / MaT = 0.47, 0.94, 1.87 and the loading frequency 26.5 Hz. The tests were performed in a high cycle fatigue regime for the stress ratio R = - 1 and phase shift between bending and torsion loading equal to  = 0.
