Effect of Specimen geometry on high cycle fatigue life of S460 NL

Abstract

Presented study deals with the risk volume assessment. The study uses FEA of various sample geometries and fatigue testing of four different geometries in order to validate findings resulting from FEA. The numerical simulations show quite homogeneous distribution of stresses within the gauge length of tensile samples, which leads to a large risk volume.
