5 Principle of test

Nominally identical specimens are used, each being rotated and subjected to a constant bending

moment. The forces giving rise to the bending moment do not rotate. The specimen may be mounted

as a cantilever, with single­point or two­point loading, or as a beam, with four­point loading. The test

is continued until the specimen fails or until a pre-determined number of stress cycles have been

achieved, a stress cycle corresponds to a complete rotation of the specimen.

6.1 Forms of the test section
The test section may be

a) cylindrical, with tangentially blending fillets at one or both ends (see Figures 1, 4 and 5),

b) tapered (see Figure 2), or
c) hourglass-type (see Figures 3, 6 and 7).

NOTE A volume of material is tested in the gauge portion of a parallel specimen in two­point and four­point

loading conditions. This volume is equally under maximum stress. For all other loading conditions and for both

parallel and hourglass specimens, only a thin planar element of material is submitted to the maximum stress at

the minimum cross­section.

The form of test section can be dependent on the type of loading to be employed. While cylindrical

or hourglass-type specimens may be loaded as beams, or as cantilevers with either single-point

or double-point loading, the tapered form of specimen is used only as a cantilever with single-point

loading. Figures 1 to 7 show, in schematic form, the bending moment and nominal stress diagrams for

the various practical cases.

The volumes of material subjected to greatest stresses are not the same for different forms of specimen,

and they may not necessarily give identical results. The test in which the largest volume of material is

highly stressed is recommended.

The use of single point loading machines should be done with great caution. One of the main drawbacks

is that the bending moment is not constant along the specimen. The section where the stress is maximum

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
ISO/FDIS 1143:2021(E)

and the corresponding stress depend not only on the specimen geometry but also on the length of level

arm. For this type of machines, cylindrical hour glass specimen geometry is recommended because the

higher stress is close to the one calculated for the minimum diameter section.

Experience has shown that a ratio of at least 2:1 between the cross-sectional areas of the gripping

regions and the test portion of the specimen is recommended. The grips which do not lead up to large

stress­concentration area are recommended.

In tests on certain materials, a combination of high stress and high speed may cause excessive hysteresis

heating of the specimen. This effect may be reduced by subjecting a smaller volume of the material or by

decreasing the test frequency (see 10.3). If the specimen is cooled, the test medium should be reported.

6.2 Dimensions of specimens

All the specimens employed in a test series for a fatigue-life determination shall have the same size,

shape and tolerance of diameter.

For the purpose of calculating the force to be applied to obtain the required stress, the actual minimum

diameter of each specimen shall be measured to an accuracy of 0,01 mm. Care shall be taken during the

measurement of the specimen prior to testing to ensure that the surface is not damaged.

On cylindrical specimens subject to constant bending moment (see Figures 4 and 5), the parallel test

section shall be parallel within 0,025 mm. For other forms of cylindrical specimen (see Figure 1),

the parallel test section shall be parallel within 0,05 mm. For material property determination, the

transition fillets at the ends of the test section should have a radius not less than 3d. For hourglass-type

specimens, the section formed by the continuous radius should have a radius not less than 5d.

Figure 8 shows the shape and dimensions of a typical cylindrical specimen. The recommended values of

d are 6 mm, 7,5 mm and 9,5 mm. The tolerance of diameter should be 0,005d. Figure 9 shows a typical

hourglass specimen suitable for fatigue testing at elevated temperature.
7 Preparation of specimens
7.1 General

In any rotating bar bending fatigue test program designed to characterize the intrinsic properties of

a material, it is important to observe the following recommendations in the preparation of specimens.

A possible reason for deviation from these recommendations is if the test program aims to determine

the influence of a specific factor (surface treatment, oxidation, etc.) that is incompatible with the

recommendations. In all cases, any deviation shall be noted in the test report.
7.2 Selection of the specimen and marking

The sampling of test materials from a semi-finished product or a component may have a major influence

on the results obtained during the test. It is therefore necessary for this sampling to be recorded and a

sampling drawing be prepared. This shall form part of the test report and shall indicate clearly

— the position of each of the specimens removed from the semi-finished product or component,

— the characteristic directions in which the semi-finished product has been worked (direction of

rolling, extrusion, etc., as appropriate), and
— the unique identification of each of the specimens.

The unique mark or identification of each specimen shall be maintained at each stage of its preparation.

This may be applied using any reliable method in an area not likely to disappear during machining or

likely to adversely affect the quality of the test. Upon completion of the machining process, it is desirable

for both ends of each specimen to be uniquely marked so that, after failure of a specimen, each half can

still be identified.

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
ISO/FDIS 1143:2021(E)
7.3 Machining procedure
7.3.1 Heat treatment of test material

The heat treatment is generally performed on a rough machined specimen. Then final machining

followed by polishing should be performed on the specimen to remove any deformation of the specimen

due to the heat treatment process. If that is not possible, the heat treatment should be carried out in a

vacuum or in inert gas to prevent oxidation of the specimen. Subsequent stress relieving is recommended

in this case. The stress relieving treatment shall not alter the micro­structural characteristic of the

material under study. The specifics of the heat treatment and machining procedure shall be reported

with the test results.
7.3.2 Machining criteria

The machining procedure selected may produce residual stresses on the specimen surface likely to

affect the test results. These stresses may be induced by heat gradients at the machining stage or they

may be associated with deformation of the material or micro-structural alterations. Their influence

is less marked in tests at elevated temperatures because they are partially or totally relaxed once the

temperature is attained. However, they should be reduced by using an appropriate final machining

procedure, especially prior to a final polishing stage. For harder materials, grinding rather than turning

or milling may be preferred.

— Grinding: from 0,1 mm above the final diameter, at a rate of no more than 0,005 mm/pass.

— Polishing: remove the final 0,025 mm with abrasives of decreasing grit size. The final direction of

polishing shall be along the test specimen axis.

The phenomenon of alteration in the microstructure of the material may be caused by the increase

in temperature and by the strain hardening induced by machining. It may be a matter of a change in

phase or, more frequently, of surface re-crystallization. The immediate effect of this is to make the test

specimen no longer representative of the initial material. Hence, every precaution should therefore be

taken to avoid this risk.

Contaminants can be introduced when the mechanical properties of certain materials deteriorate in

the presence of certain elements or compounds. An example of this is the effect of chlorine on steels and

titanium alloys. These elements should therefore be avoided in the products used (cutting fluids, etc.).

Rinsing and degreasing of specimens prior to storage is also recommended.
7.3.3 Surface condition of specimens

The surface condition of specimens influences the test results. This influence is generally associated

with one or more of the following factors:
— the specimen surface roughness;
— the presence of residual stresses;
— alteration in the microstructure of the material;
— the introduction of contaminants.

The recommendations below allow the influence of these factors to be reduced to a minimum.

The surface condition is commonly quantified by the mean roughness or equivalent (e.g. 10 point

roughness or maximum height of irregularities). The importance of this variable on the results obtained

depends largely on the test conditions, and its influence is reduced by surface corrosion of the specimen

or plastic deformation.

It is preferable, whatever the test conditions, to specify a mean surface roughness, Ra, of less than

0,2 μm (or equivalent).
© ISO 2021 – All rights reserved 9
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
ISO/FDIS 1143:2021(E)

Another important parameter not covered by mean roughness is the presence of localized machining

scratches. A low-magnification check (at approximately × 20) shall not show any circumferential

scratches or abnormalities.

With specimens having tangentially blended fillets, often an undercut is observed at the transition from

the radius of the fillet to the cylindrical test section. This undercut may lead to a preferred failure of the

specimen in this area. The undercut can't easily be measured but can be found by visible inspection of

the reflections on the surface under a flat angle. No visible undercut shall be allowed.

If specimens are not manufactured according to the procedures defined in 7.3.2 or if there are doubts

about the correct machining, it is recommended to measure or evaluate:
— residual stress state, preferably a profile of residual stress over depth;
— surface roughness profile;
— surface hardness;

and state the values observed together with the test results in order to facilitate definite interpretation

of the test results.
7.3.4 Dimensional checks

The diameter shall be measured on each specimen. In the case of specimens with a parallel gauge

length, the diameter shall be measured at a minimum of three positions along the gauge length. The

measurement shall be performed using a method that does not damage the specimen.
7.4 Storage and handling

After preparation, the specimens shall be stored in such a way to prevent any risk of damage (scratching

by contact, oxidation, etc.). The use of individual boxes or tubes with end caps is recommended. In

certain cases, storage in a vacuum or in a desiccator containing silica gel may be necessary.

Handling shall be reduced to the minimum necessary. In all instances, the gauge length or test section

should not be touched. However, if this happens, cleaning the specimen with alcohol is allowed.

8 Accuracy of the testing apparatus

A number of different types of rotating bending fatigue machine are used. Figures 1 to 7 show the

principles of the main types of machine. Figure 10 shows the schematic of a kind of rotating bending

fatigue machine. Its operation shall satisfy the following requirement: th
