Abstract
The present paper is the result of the collaboration between the Engineering Department of Messina University and the car company Maserati S.p.A. The aim of this paper is to determine the T-N torsion fatigue curve at R= -1 of the mechanical system "front halfshaft" of an existing car. In particular, experimental fatigue tests were carried out in the laboratories of the Engineering Department of the University of Messina. Torsion fatigue tests of the entire mechanical system were carried out on 15 different front halfshafts. Evaluations of the crack propagation and of failure analysis were made to determine the causes of breakage. In conclusion, the T-N fatigue curve of the mechanical system "front halfshaft" has been obtained.
