摘要
The fatigue crack initiation from notch root and the short-crack growth laws of two medium carbon alloying structural steels—35CrMo and 42CrMo are investigated under the different stress ratios R =0.1, 0.3) and three-point bending condition. The relationships between the maximum stress range at the notch root Δ σ max and the number of cycles before fatigue crack initiation N i are determined. The threshold stresses of fatigue crack initiation (Δ σ max ) th are got, and the smallcrack growth laws are obtained for these steels. An effective and convenient method is proposed for predicting the fatigue life of the notch specimens.
