Article
The applicability of a non-linear Fatigue Damage Function for multiaxial fatigue strength prediction is verified for various metallic materials including mild steel, hard steel, cast iron and aluminium alloys. The proposed method determines the orientation of the critical plane which experiences the maximum quantity of damage, according to the Fati...
Article
The analysis reported compares the effects of different road conditions on the fatigue life of a transmission output shaft. Four routes having differing driving conditions were investigated and, of those routes, the route with most stop-start events resulted in the greatest reduction to fatigue life. In-vehicle loading data have been compared with...

... The DRF links the dose of pollution, measured in ambient concentration and deposition, to the rate of material deterioration. DRF is useful due to predictive abilities and in general, it plays an essential role in different domains of science and engineering (Bhaskar et al. 2004;Ninic and Stark 2007). DRF for material deterioration caused by air pollution has been known for a long time. ...
... Oelmann [16] analyzed the influence of factors such as rated engine torque, rear axle ratio, transmission ratios, type of transmission, and vehicle mass on the loading spectrum of vehicle components and developed a formula with which conversion of load spectrum from one vehicle to another was possible. Ilie et al. [17] compared the effects of four road conditions on the fatigue life of a transmission output shaft, and analyses showed that the condition with most stop-start events resulted in the greatest reduction to fatigue life. ...
