Tensile Fatigue


Test ID

M-512

Description

Tensile fatigue tests are performed between zero and a specified maximum stress at a specified frequency in a constant amplitude of force mode.  Testing is continued up to failure or 100,000 cycles depending on frequency. Number of cycles to failure is recorded. 

NOTE: Due to the long-term nature of this test it is necessary to speak to a sales associate before placing an order. Because the typical test duration depends on the frequency and duty cycle, priority and economy pricing are not available unless a short test duration is desired.

Options

Standards

  • ASTM D7791

Data

S-N Curves. This data appears in Matereality as Tensile Fatigue.

Replicates

Number of times this test is repeated: 3

Samples

10 tensile bars [details]

Application

This test is used to determine fatigue life of a material under cyclic loading. An S/N curve is not created. For S/N curves see [M-508].
