Determining the Endurance
Limit
A rotary device serves as an excellent means of
acquiring such data in a timely manner.
Several thousand cycles can be executed rather quickly
Below is a sketch of a simple apparatus that can be
used to determine the value of the endurance limit.
Much Endurance Data on record
is for steels
Mischke, one of the authors of the
text has actually done an
extensive study in this area and
has determined that the
endurance limit of the material.
Steels
It is important to note that
these estimates are for
clean, highly polished
specimens that are free of
surface defects.

Your text emphasizes this point by
the inclusion of a prime mark
above the endurance limit symbol.
Endurance Limit (EL) Modifying
Factors
Factors that can reduce the
EL:
Surface condition, (k
a
)
Size factor, (k
b
)
Load factor, (k
c
)
Temperature, (k
d
)
Reliability factor, (k
e
)
Miscellaneous-effects factor,
(k
f
)
These factors are used to adjust
the endurance limit obtained from
rotating beam specimens.

Modified EL - Marins Equation
Now we will discuss how to
effectively estimate these modification
factors.
Surface Factor, k
a
Mischke performed a
regression analysis to
approximate the surface factor
The surface factor, k
a
, takes
the following form:
where S
ut
is the minimum
tensile strength and a and b
are found from the table
k
a
= aS
ut
b
Size Factor, k
b
Once again Mischke has provided
a means for estimating the EL
size modification factor
The size factor arises because of
the geometry of the specimen
used to obtain the endurance
limit
Diameter 0.30 in.
Extruded or drawn bar stock
Grain elongation in the direction
perpendicular to fatigue crack
growth
Likelihood of surface flaws is low

For larger parts are more likely to
contain flaws which can result in
premature material failure
For axially loaded specimens the
size factor is one.
Effective circular cross-section may be
computed for non-circular geometry (see
Table 7-5.)
Loading Factor, k
c
Since the usual test used to obtain the EL is the reversed
bending load, modification factors are needed.
Some texts on this subject do not include this factor and
require the user to implement an estimation in the EL
instead.

Characterizing Fluctuating
Stress
Fatigue loading is oftentimes
caused by a variable loading
source.
To develop failure criterion for
fluctuating stresses, which cause
fatigue failures, we must
characterize how the stress levels
vary as time.
Sinusoidal stress oscillating
about a static stress

Completely reversed stress
