S-N curve
Figure shows a typical relationship between the applied stress, , and the number of
cycles to failure, ,for unnotched steel specimens tested either in rotating bending or
in tension-compression. This relationship is called an S-N curve.
Fatigue diagram
The term fatigue strength is used to specify a
stress amplitude value from an S-N curve at
a particular life of interest. Hence, the
fatigue strength at 105 cycles is simply the
stress amplitude corresponding to Nf =105.
Other terms used with S-N curves include
high-cycle fatigue and low-cycle fatigue. The
former identifies situations of long fatigue
life where the stress is sufficiently low that
yielding effects do not dominate the
behavior. The life where highcycle fatigue
starts varies with material but is typically in
the range 102 to 104 cycles.
