The upper limit extension of loading frequency in the rotating bending fatigue test
Fatigue property in gigacycle regime is focused as an important subject in recent years. In such a long-life region, a tremendous long period is required to perform the fatigue tests. In order to overcome this difficulty, special types of fatigue testing
