Abstract
parameters that govern the life of metallic materials under conditions of fretting fatigue may be divided into two broad categories. The first category concerns the material properties (e.g., yield strength, elastic modulus, and surface roughness) while the second concerns the externally imposed loading conditions and contact geometry. The two in-contact materials may either stick, slip, or stick-slip (i.e., there is a slip and a stick region on their interface) against each other. It has been shown that the fatigue life reduction is highest under partial slip. The objective of the present research effort is to develop a model that enables the prediction of the particular fretting fatigue regime (i.e., slip, stick, or mixed). The parameters that affect the fretting fatigue life of metallic components were identified and integrated into a model, which allows the prediction of the interfacial contact conditions. The model was first used to identify the sensitivity of the fretting fatigue regimes upon the materials and external, and geometrical parameters. Experimental results concerned with the fatigue life were plotted on the fretting maps; the fretting fatigue regimes indicated by the latter enabled the interpretation of the experimental data.
