Endurance Limit Modifying Factors
For real parts, we modify the S-N diagram by modifying
the endurance limit
where
– 𝑆𝑒 is the endurance limit for the machined part
– 𝑆𝑒′ is the endurance limit of a rotary-beam test specimen
– 𝑘𝑎 is a surface condition modification factor
– 𝑘𝑏 is a size modification factor
– 𝑘𝑐 is a load modification factor
– 𝑘𝑑 is a temperature modification factor
– 𝑘𝑒 is a reliability modification factor
– 𝑘𝑓 is a miscellaneous-effects modification factor
26
Surface Factor 𝒌𝒂
27
Size Factor 𝒌𝒃 (pure axial loading)
𝑘𝑏 = 1
28
Size Factor 𝒌𝒃 (bending and torsion)
Note: effective diameter is equal to
physical diameter only for rotating cylinder
29
Effective diameter for non-rotating shapes
30
Load Factor 𝒌𝒄
• Depends on type of load
– Bending: 𝑘𝑐 = 1
– Axial: 𝑘𝑐 = 0.85
– Torsion: 𝑘𝑐 = 0.59
31
Temperature Factor 𝒌𝒅
See Table 6-4

Temperature Factor 𝒌𝒅
33
Reliability Factor 𝒌𝒆
See Table 6-5
35
Miscellaneous Effects Factor 𝒌𝒇
• Values of 𝑘𝑓 are not available, but nonetheless you
should consider:
– Residual stresses
– Directional characteristics
– Surface treatments
– Corrosion
– Frettage

Vibrations
The equation of motion of a free spring-mass system
can be written
𝑚 𝑥ሷ + 𝑘𝑥 = 0.
A solution is
𝑥 𝑡 = 𝐴 cos(𝜔𝑛 𝑡)
where
𝑘
𝜔𝑛 =
