Mean stress of stress cycle (fatigue) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Mean Stress of Stress Cycle = (Maximum Tensile Stress+Minimum compressive stress)/2
σm = (σtmax+σmin)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Mean Stress of Stress Cycle - (Measured in Pascal) - Mean Stress of Stress Cycle is defined as the amount of mean stress acting when a material or component is subjected to fluctuating stress.
Maximum Tensile Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Maximum Tensile Stress is the maximum amount of force per unit area acting onto the specimen so that it to prone to getting stretched.
Minimum compressive stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Minimum compressive stress in a cyclic load during fatigue.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Maximum Tensile Stress: 50 Megapascal --> 50000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Minimum compressive stress: 40 Megapascal --> 40000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
σm = (σtmaxmin)/2 --> (50000000+40000000)/2
Evaluating ... ...
σm = 45000000
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
45000000 Pascal --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
45000000 4.5E+7 Pascal <-- Mean Stress of Stress Cycle
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Failure Testing in Materials Calculators

Critical stress for crack propagation
​ Go Critical stress = sqrt(2*Young's Modulus*Specific surface energy/(pi*Crack Length))
Percent cold work
​ Go Percent cold work = 100*(Cross-sectional Area-Area after deformation)/Cross-sectional Area
Percent reduction in area
​ Go Percent reduction in area = (Cross-sectional Area-Fracture area)*100/Cross-sectional Area
Percent elongation
​ Go Percent elongation = (Fracture Length-Original Length)*100/Original Length

Mean stress of stress cycle (fatigue) Formula

Mean Stress of Stress Cycle = (Maximum Tensile Stress+Minimum compressive stress)/2
σm = (σtmax+σmin)/2

Fatigue

Fatigue is a form of failure that occurs in structures subjected to dynamic and fluctuating stresses (e.g., bridges, aircraft, and machine components). Under these circumstances it is possible for failure to occur at a stress level considerably lower than
the tensile or yield strength for a static load.

How to Calculate Mean stress of stress cycle (fatigue)?

Mean stress of stress cycle (fatigue) calculator uses Mean Stress of Stress Cycle = (Maximum Tensile Stress+Minimum compressive stress)/2 to calculate the Mean Stress of Stress Cycle, Mean stress of stress cycle (fatigue) defined as the average of the maximum and minimum stresses in the cycle.
