摘要
Purpose - The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of overload (bending moment with plastic deformation: Mp) on three point bending specimen at the fatigue limit of high-tensile-strength steel containing a crack in the stress concentration zone. Design/methodology/approach - An artificial semi-circular slit was introduced and Mp was applied after which bending fatigue tests were carried out. Findings - The relationship between the level of Mp and the fatigue limit (sw) was proportional; the fatigue limits of specimens containing 0.2-and 0.3-mm-deep slits are improved by the Mp process as much as twice the original values; the slit size that can be rendered harmless by the Mp process is a = 0.05mm in depth; and all non-propagating cracks appeared around the artificial slit. Originality/value - Very few studies have been conducted on the fatigue limit of materials containing crack-like surface defects after overload in the stress concentration zone. This study elucidated the effect of Mp on the fatigue limit.
