Abstract

Torsional and axial fatigue tests were performed on steel 42CrMo4+QT and aluminium alloy 7075-T6, and a 3D optical profilometer was used for the investigations of the fracture surfaces. The mode I and mode III critical distances of the two materials were regarded as reference scales for evaluating the initial orientation of the cracks and then identifying the tests valid for the calibration of the normal and those for the shear-fatigue models. The torsional strength of blunt notched specimens was then predicted with the Smith-Watson-Topper and the Fatemi-Socie criteria, combined with the critical distances and the Chaboche model for the steel.
