APPLICATION OF THE MODIFIED FATIGUE CURVE CALCULATION FOR EVALUATING DURABILITY THIN-WALLED ELEMENTS
Using the traditional method the match of the projected longevity and durability resulted in a bench test structures are not always satisfactory. The article presents the improved technique of numerical fatigue life prediction of structural elements by using the modified fatigue curves, considering the impact of structural and technological features of the products of the actual design. The results of the calculated fatigue life assessment based on the use of modified fatigue curves correspond to the results of the fatigue life test bench.
