Lecture
Fatigue and Wear: Introduction to Materials Science
Description
This lecture covers the definitions of fatigue and wear in materials science, emphasizing the concepts of cyclic loading, stress in fatigue, and wear as a case of necessary friction parts. It explores the fatigue resistance of materials under repeated stress variations, the impact of stress amplitude on fatigue resistance, and the endurance limit for different materials. The importance of endurance limit cards and the conversion of applied stress to deformation during fatigue are also discussed.
