Abstract: | In this paper, the surface roughening phenomenon of an aluminum foil during fatigue process is utilized for monitoring of
a variable amplitude stress. It is found that constant mean stress does not affect surface roughness. When the mean stress
varies, however, it causes surface roughening. In such a case, the equivalent stress defined by (Σσ
i
α
N
i
/ΣN
i
)1/α dominates surface roughness of an aluminum foil, where σ
i
andN
i
are stress amplitude and the number of cycles counted by the rangepair method, respectively, and α is a gage factor which
is peculiar to the foil used. It is concluded that the aluminum foil can be used as the range-pair counting fatigue gage with
high accuracy. |
