Includes bibliographical references (leaves 133-141). The research studies revealed that there was a distinct difference in fatigue performance as a result of a temperature increase from 20°C to 45°C, as characterised by both SN and Paris fatigue tests. There was also, but to a lesser degree, an ageing effect. The temperature performance factor for the SN curves was between 1.6 and 4.6, while for the Paris characterisation the temperature performance factor was between 3 and 3.5. 2014-07-31T11:17:25Z 2014-07-31T11:17:25Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5444 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
