How does stress range (S) affect fatigue life (N)?

A higher stress range results in a longer fatigue life

Stress range only affects the frequency of loading

A higher stress range results in a shorter fatigue life (correct)

Stress range does not affect fatigue life

What is the definition of fatigue life?

The frequency of loading (1/p)

The number of cycles (N) to failure (correct)

The ultimate stress level before failure

The stress range (S) at which failure occurs

What are S/N curves used to represent?

Yield strength vs. stress range (S)

Stress range (S) vs. fatigue life (N) (correct)

Ultimate stress level vs. frequency of loading

Frequency of loading (1/p) vs. stress range (S)
