摘要
Truck wheels are usually assessed against fatigue by experimental tests based on standardised load sequences (CARLOS load spectra) which reproduce a typical service life of the real component. The present paper deals with the effect of defects, caused by the manufacturing process, on the fatigue life of wheels subjected to block loading tests. The research was prompted by premature service failures of a batch of truck wheels. The investigation firstly dealt with fatigue and crack growth tests for the quality control of the material and then with the detection of defects at the origin of the unexpected failures. The data have been used to assess the acceptability of defects and to estimate life under proof tests using current crack propagation models. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
