Introduction
Introduction Fatigue life is estimated based on crack initiation method. A notched shaft under combined bending and torsion loads is analised. Two loading are combined , each load with its own loading history. Linear stresses used for the calculation is obtained from bending and torsion loading independently.
Geometry
Select Method for Life Estimation: Crack Initiation Crack Initiation(E-N) is the selected method
1. Stresses and strains calculated froma linear static analysis 2. Material Properties: E-N Curve and Cyclic Stress-Strain Curve 3. Variable Amplitude Loading: cycles counting performed through Rainflow counting method 4. Neuber Correction to consider local plastic strain 5. Mean Stress Correction performed using either Morrow or SmithWater-Thompson Methodologies 6. Damage Accumulation and Fatigue Life Calculation peformed using Palmgreen-Miner rule.
Select Method for Life Estimation: Crack Initiation Note: Ansys Design Life is not limited to crack initiation. One may perform: S-N analysis da/dN (Crack Propagation based of LEFM) Vibration Fatigue (frequency domain fatigue life estimation) Among other capabilities
