Fatigue strength: PH1 steel (Vxx/SMn)
This page presents the S-N curves and fatigue limit of PH1 steel samples that underwent shot-peening and machining that removed allowance of 0.5mm (in that order), obtained using the bending tests of rotating bars with AM layers normal to the axis of rotation.
Production and prost-processing conditions
| Build orientation of longitudinal axis | vertical |
|---|---|
| Position with respect to inert gas flow | undefined |
| Post-processing | shot-peening → machining allowance 0.5mm |
Experimental S-N curve
| Experimental method | ISO1143, rotating bending test R=-1 |  |
|---|---|---|
| AM layers | normal to axis of rotation |
Wöhler curve
| Fatigue limit (MPa) | 345 |
|---|---|
| Number of cycles to failure N | N=8,60⋅10<html>27</html>⋅S<html>-8,55</html> |
| Stress amplitude S (MPa) | S=1855⋅N<html>-0,117</html> |
