Handout: Figure 4  

Given data: 

Material: 1045 Steel 

Ultimate tensile strength = 625 MPa

Stress range for rotating part: Min stress = -150 MPa, Max stress = 400 MPa

Rotation: 6 Hz ( 1 Hz = 1 cycle per second)

• How many hours would the part be expected to

  survive before failing due to fatigue
