Pulsating Tension Fatigue Test of Full-Scale Machine Parts
Journal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 1970 Pulsating tension fatigue tests were made of some full scale machine parts, such as PC wire strand 1×4, 1×7 and 1×19, wire rope 6×19, steel wire, tie rod, etc.……. As a result of these tests, it has been found that the stress amplitude of fatigue strength sometimes drops as low as less than 5kg/mm2, which is rather small values as laboratory fatigue ...
