On the base of engineering mechanics, this chapter will develop more specific understanding in failure theories and material strength for machinery design. The failure usually reflect one of the most important perspectives ([pE5spektiv]) in assessing the safety of mechanical system and components. 3.1 THEORIES OF FATIGUE The maximum-normal-stress theory (the first strength theory) The maximum-normal-strain theory (the second strength theory) The maximum-shear-stress theory (the third strength theory) The distortion-energy theory (the fourth strength theory) 3.2 BULK STRENGTHS OF THE MACHINE COMPONENTWS 3.2.1 Load and Stress static load static stress Load stress varying load varying (fluctuating) stress Load: Loads are the external action between two bodies. In terms of the behaviour, load can be presented in a fashion of force, bending moment and torque. Static load: The magnitudes or directions of the load remain unchanged or change a little and slowly within a given time. Varying load: The magnitudes or direction of the load is continuously time-varying. Stress: Stresses are the external resistances or forces, which are set up in the material when a load acts on a component. Static stress: static stresses are the stresses whose magnitudes and directions remain unchanged or change a little and slowly within a given time.
=constant t
Varying (fluctuating) stress: A varying stress varies its magnitude and directions all the time. Static or varying load both can cause varying stress.
(a) Static stress;(b) and (c) Non-symmetrical (or nonsinusoidal) fluctuating stresses; (d) Sinusoidal fluctuating stress; (e) Repeated alternating (pulsant) stress; (f) Completely reversed (symmetrical) stress Stress Working stress: Using the formula in mechanics of materials calculate the stress on section plane of element Calculated stress: Followed the theory of strength, calculate the stress that is equal to simple tension Ultimate stress: Some utmost of mechanical characters of material Strength utmost: off set limit, limit of fatigue, Allowable stress: Calculate the allowable maximum of stress Safety factor : S= Calculated value of safety factor

The reason of introduce the safety factor: The inexactness in calculation of stress; The discrepancy of mechanical model and actual state The nonhomogeneity of mechanical characters The importance of occasion that the elements apply in. 3.2.2 Stress-Strength Design Method Stress-strength method of factor-of-safety method of design is a method as old as engineering design itself. That is why it is often called the classical method of design. It mainly includes two parts. The maximum stress condition:
lim [ S ] lim [ S ]
lim [ S ] S = lim [ S ]
S = 3.3 STRENGTH DESIGN UNDER STATIC VARYING STRESSES Static strength: Both the design for ductile materials and brittle materials are not so difficult under static stresses. We just need to pay attention to the fatigue theories. 3.3.1 The Strength Calculation of Machine Elements Under the Static Stresses lim ca = [ ] S Where ca calculated stress

2. -N fatigue curve (material fatigue curve ) The -N fatigue curve is shown as follow. It taken the limit of fatigue of material by the parameter, based on the experiment we can get the curve from.
max A B C
In the origin, the number of stress cycles is N=1/4. It means the material will be snapped when it is loaded to the maximum, so the value is the strength limit B .

AB N< 103 , max has little changed, so it can be approximated to static stress strength. BC As the N augments, max declines, at the point C, N 104 ,so this kind of destroy is called low-cycle fatigue or strain fatigue. CD: As the N augments, max declines rapidly, this phase is called high cycle fatigue or finite lifetime. Most fatigue of machine element happen in this phase.
m (N Describe as follow: rN N = C C N ND )
Explanation: machinery design mainly discuss the high cycle fatigue. Sometimes it is necessary to do the strength check of static stress for the element which have prodigious peak value but little action. Since point D: Curve goes to be horizontal, it means as the N augments no longer declines, it is called infinite life. N 106 : 25 107 The equation is: rN = r N > ND ) Because of the value of N D is large, when doing the fatigue experiment we always ordain a cycle index N O (cycle radix). We use N O and its fatigue limit r

As the testing result shown in interval CD, after relevant numbers of varying stresses the check bar will happen endurance failure. But since the point D, if the maximum stress less than the stress of the point D, In that way no matter how many times of the circles, the material will never be destroyed. High circle fatigue: CD-----fatigue for finite life After D----fatigue for infinite life

Eg: In the strength calculation of gear and worm, use the following equation to calculate the allowable stress. r [ ] = Kn S 3.

3.3.2.2.Stress Limit Curve( m a Curve) Allowable fatigue design diagram: 1.The stress limit of material
The explanation of stress limit (1)Every point on the curve stands for limiting fatigue stress of material under the different cycle performance. (2)Point A correspond the cycle of r=-1, m = 0, a = 1 = max Point D correspond the cycle of r=0, min = 0, m = a = 0 / 2 = max / 2 Line OC correspond the static stress r=1, a = 0 ,choose the coordinate values of point C be equal to the off set limit s of material. (3) A straight line is drawn from point C with an angle of 45to the mean-stress axis and stops at point G. Every point on line CG stands for the varying static condition that
max = m + a = s .
(4)The area inside the broken line A ' D ' G ' C ' is yielding and fatigue safety zone. (5)For simplifying the calculation, use the equation but not the curve. 2.The stress limit of element Because of the geometrical shape, size dimension,Surface texture and intensifying factor, the fatigue value of material is above and beyond the Fatigue value of element. fatigue value of material fatigue limit fatigue value of element influence coefficient K bending fatigue limit influential factors K Kshear fatigue limit influential factors

The calculation of safety factor and stress condition: Sca = Static stress condition: Sca =

s lim = s = S max a + m
2. In the case of m = C , the mean stress of the varying stress remains the same. It is the stress condition of the vibrating loaded spring. The limit stress of point M:
' max = 1e + m (1

Sca =

Also , for the shear stress, the only thing we have to do is using the instead of in the equation above. Machine elements fatigue value of pure unstable varying stress Eg: The stress condition of automobile leaf-spring is affected by the load, vehicle speed, pavement, tyre and road sense, etc.
Fig3-9 regular unstable varying stress diagram Fig3-10 unstable varying stress on the -N curve Adopt: fatigue damage accumulation hypothesis n1 n2 n3 + + =1 N1 N 2 N3
If every circle of stresses make the equicohesive destruct on the material, the material damage ratio of stress 1 is 1/ N1 in every circle, so in n1 circles the material damage
ratio of 1 is n1 / N1 and in n2 circles the material damage ratio of 2 is n2 / N 2 . If the stress is lower than 1 , we can believe that the stress is not damaging. When the damage ratio is up to 100%,the material happens to endurance failure. So we obtain: n n n n Ni = N1 + N2 + N3 + ...... = 1 i =1 i 1 2 3

As the experiment shown 1)When the sequence of stress operation is increased and then decreased, we obtain:

The fatigue value of doubleaction static varying stress The element which is under the alternate stress of bending and torsion is belong to this kind of fatigue value. Eg: when the shaft is under the action of bending and torsion, the calculation value of safety factor and strength condition is :
S S
2 S + S2
S only under the normal stress , the calculation value of safety factor S =
K a + m
S only under the shearing stress , the calculation value of safety factor S =
K a + m
3.3.3 the Measure for Increasing the Fatigue Value of Machine Element In the design phase the design measure should be taken to increasing the fatigue value of machine element : . Lower the stress concentration as much as possible . Choose the material of high fatigue value; .Choose the heat treatment method and reinforced technics to increasing the fatigue value of machine element; . Increase the surface texture of machine element; .Decrease or eliminate the original crack size of the element surface. For the case of constant ratio r, When the working points are on fatigue safety zone: S a = k N 1 [ S a ] (k ) D a + m
Where is a constant with regarding to the material and can be determined by fatigue tests of following equation: 2 1 0 0
s [ S ] a +s
Illumination : Two other cases (m =constant and min =constant) are not given in detail here for they are not very common. MAIN CONTENTS OF THE CHAPTER
