Abstract

This paper estimates total fatigue and transition life using strain-controlled fatigue data generated for various cast materials, using a practical example of a structural hub casting that has been in service for many years. The material data generated from recent testing, service loads and boundary conditions from the potential failure modes are entered into a finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the stress amplitudes using the same geometry that is employed for predicting the fatigue life.
