Method for determining an acceptable maximum alternating stress for a part subjected to cyclic solicitations, unit for determining such a stress

摘要

A method of determining a maximum acceptable alternating stress at a point of a part subjected to cyclic loading: simulating that the part is subjected to constant loading equal to a threshold value during a level period, and assuming that the part has elasto-viscoplastic behavior; from the results of the simulation, determining a final static stress at the point at the end or after the end of the level period; and for the point under consideration, using a Goodman diagram to determine the maximum acceptable alternating stress, which is determined for a static stress equal to the final static stress; the duration of the level period being equal to the duration of the loading of the testpieces that were used to draw up the Goodman diagram.
