Workshop A12 – Goals
• Goal: – In this workshop our goal is to perform a Fatigue analysis of the
connecting rod model (ConRod.x_t) shown here. Specifically, we will analyze two load environments: 1) Constant Amplitude Load of 4500 N, Fully Reversed and 2) Random Load of 4500N.

Note, the stress state near the critical location is not far from uniaxial (.1~.2), which gives an added measure of confidence since the material properties are uniaxial. Recall, a biaxiality of zero corresponds to uniaxial stress, a value of –1 corresponds to pure shear, and a value of 1 corresponds to a pure biaxial state.

If the loading history corresponded to the loading experienced by the part over a months time, the damage and FS will be at a design life of 1000 months. Note that although a life of only 112 loading blocks is calculated, the needed scale factor (since FS @ 1000=.64) is only .64 to reach a life of 1000 blocks.
Note, the “scale factor” is the scale factor for the loading to make it meet the life of 1000 months.

Although, from the previous slide, one saw that most of the counts were for the low mean and range bins, these do not cause the most damage at the critical location, as shown in this damage matrix. Instead, the 'medium' stress amplitude cycles cause the most damage at the critical location.
