The fatigue life in wheels was predicted by simulating the experimental method using Finite-Element analysis. Based on a high frequency fatigue property, calculations of the stresses in wheels were performed by simulating the rotating bending fatigue test. Wheels made of an aluminum alloy(A356.2) were tested using a bending fatigue tester. Results from bending fatigue test showed a linear correlation between bending moment and stress amplitude. Consequently, Finite-Element calculations were performed by a linear analysis. In order to find stress-cycles curves, spoke parts of wheel were tested using a rotary bending fatigue tester. Also, highly accurate Finite-Element analysis requires regression lines and confidence intervals from these results. In conclusion, if the fatigue data related to the material and manufacturing procedure are reliable, the prediction on fatigue lift in wheels can be carried out with high accuracy.

Fretting damage can be observed in automobile and railway vehicle, fossil and nuclear power plant, aircraft etc. In the present study, railway axle material RSA1 used for evaluation of fretting fatigue life. Plain and fretting fatigue tests were carried out using rotary bending fatigue tester with proving ring and bridge type contact pad. Through these test, the following results are obtained: 1) it is found that the fretting fatigue limit of standard specimen decreased about 37% compared to the plain fatigue limit. 2) The early crack of Shinkansen type specimens initiated in contact area and final fractured below samp=214 MPa. 3) The early crack of all TGV type specimens initiated in rounded area and fractured. 4) Tire tracks and rubbed scars were observed in the oblique crack region and fatigue crack growth region of fracture surface. 5) The wear debris is observed on the contact surface, and oblique cracks at an earlier stage are initiated in contact area. These results can be used as useful data in a structural integrity evaluation of railway axle.

This paper is to investigate of microhardness, adhesive strength, tensile strength, and fatigue strength of ceramic sprayed steel. Rotary bending fatigue tests have been conducted at room temperature in air and 3% NaCl solution using specimens of carbon steel(S45C) with sprayed coating layers of Ni-4.5% Al(under coating) and $TiO_2$ (top coating). The microhardness has been improved at $800^{\circ}C$ heat treatment and 150mm spraying distance. Tensile strength of the sprayed steel is dependent on the substrate strength. The fatigue strength of the sprayed steel is larger than that of substrate due to blasting and constraint surface of plastic deformation effect. In low stress level, the corrosion fatigue strength of the sprayed steel were lower than that of fatigue strength in air by corrosion.

The main objective of this study is to consider the effect of fatigue crack behavior on the variable depth of micro hole defects in SM20C at the symmetric position. The fatigue crack propagation test is performed by rotary bending fatigue test machine. The relationship between crack length(2a), cycles(N) and crack growth rate(da/dN) are investigated in this study. The result from the rotary bending fatigue test under the applied stress at 250MPa turned out that the fatigue life illustrated almost constant when the depth of symmetric micro hole deflects is both part A and B at the hope depth(h) = 0.5mm.

In this study behavior of fatigue crack and fatigue fracture is observed under rotary bending fatigue testing in friction welded dissimilar materials. Fatigue fracture most occurred in SM15C heat affected zone around Interface. In case of fatigue test, stress is reduced the position of fracture gradually moves to the welded Interface. Micro crack of heat affected zone surface on SM15C is observed at any different stress.

In this study, analysis for fatigue crack propagation behavior of interface and aroud interface under rotary bending stress. Though K values are nearly the same in around interface by BEM 2-D, fatigue crack propagated H.A.Z. Around Interface crack propagation speed is m=0.678 in H.A.Z by Paris' law. In this case(friction welded materials: STS304, SM15C), fatigue crack growth is considered SM15C metal microstructure and elastic flow from this result. Result is more metal microstructute dependence than stress dependence by analysis (BEM 3-D, BEM 2-D) and fatigue crack propagation

In this research, the fatigue behaviors of Cr-Mo(SCM415) steel and carbonitrided CrMo(SCM415) steel are examined. The description of experiments in detail as follows. For SCM415 and carbonitried Cr-Mo(SCM415) steel, smooth specimens and hole defected specimens are fabricated and tested under a rotary bending tester, respectively. By performing the rotary bending fatigue test for smooth and hole defected specimens, the characteristics of the fatigue strength are examined for parameters such as tensile strength, hardness at surface, and residual stresses.

The welded specimens were made by butt welding of the 2 wires of 50mm length using the pulsed YAG laser. The laser welded wires were tested for investigating the shape memory effect and the ability of super elasticity. The fatigue properties of the welded wires were investigated using the rotary bending fatigue tester specially designed for wires. Moreover, the effect of defocusing distance during laser welding on the static and fatigue properties was Investigated. The shape memory effect and super elasticity of the laser welded wires were approximately identical with that of base metal at the test temperature below 353K. However, the welded wires were broken within elastic limit at the test temperature above 353k. Under the cyclic bending loading conditions, the welded wires could be useful only below the elastic limit, while the base metal had sufficient fatigue life even the stress induced M-phase region. The fatigue strength of the welded wires was about half of that of the base metal. The deterioration of the static and fatigue properties in the welded wires was proven to be from the large difference of the transformation behavior between the base metal and welded part that is caused by vaporization of Ni-content at the welded part during the welding process. The defocusing distance below 3mm acted more largely on lowering the strength of the welded wires than that of 6mm or 8mm.

Surface crack growth characteristics and influence of the stress amplitude in rotary bending fatigue test were evaluated for annealed S35C steel, and than fractal dimensions of fatigue crack paths estimated using the box counting method. The following results that will be helpful to understand the fatigue crack growth mechanism were obtained. (1) Crack growth rate ds/dN and db/dN (s : half crack length at the surface crack, b : crack depth) depended on stress amplitude (${\Delta}{\sigma}/2$), stress intensity factor range (${\Delta}K_A, {\Delta}K_C$) and crack length. (2) At the effect area of 0.3 mm hole notch (s＜0.5 mm) crack growth rate did not depend on these factors. (3) The fractal dimensions (D) increased with stress amplitude (${\Delta}{\sigma}/2$) but decreased with cyclic number.
