Fatigue. Functionalization of a Fatigue Data.

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 1999
Two functionalization technichques are applied to the fatigue data base edited by the Society of Materials Science, Japan. Among many data, 273 sets of S-N curves of rotary bending test data of steels in S-N forms, were chosen for functionalization, expecting better usage of a data base on three points; i) to estimate a S-N curve of a material whose ...
