Effect of Notches on Fatigue S-N Curves

What you'll learn

---

Want to improve your understanding of metal fatigue? In this module the impact of notches on fatigue life will be explained comprehensively. 

In this on-demand module, participants will be taken through:

• the different phases in fatigue failure, from cyclic slip to final failure,

• stress concentration factors, and their calculation,

• the stress field around a notch,

• the superposition of a notch on a stress field,

• notch sensitivity factors and the prediction methods including those of Neuber and Peterson,

• non-propagating cracks,

• the effect of cyclic torsion.
