Abstract:The influence of very-high-cycle-fatigue (VHCF) cycles on fatigue life of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy have been quantified for newly designed superimposed loading conditions in this research. Ultrasonically generated 20 kHz stress waves of different amplitudes have been superimposed to specimens undergoing low cycle fatigue testing at 5 Hz. The resulting fatigue lives, given by the interaction of the two superimposed loadings have been obtained, along with fractographic examination of the surface, and of the initia… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
