Observation of fracture surfaces and understanding of the safety zone in fatigue testing of metallic materials.
[Reproduction of Private Spring Preparatory School Lecture 17] Metals also change when they are fatigued! An explanation of how the results of fatigue tests are organized and utilized in design.
The fracture surface of the fatigue test specimen, like that of an actual fatigue fracture, exhibits both smooth and rough surfaces. The difference is that, in many cases, the smooth surface does not show the shell-like patterns resembling tree rings. This is because the testing machine applies a constant repeated stress, preventing the progression of cracks from exhibiting a step-like pattern. The shell-like patterns that form on the fatigue fracture surface of automotive springs occur due to variations in the weight of the load or changes in road conditions, which cause fluctuations in the repeated stress. Additionally, there are instances where the smooth fracture surface of the test specimen appears discolored purple; this is due to temper colors resulting from frictional heat generated by the rubbing of the crack surfaces. *For more detailed information, please refer to the PDF.
