Fatigue Life Estimation of Welds on Truck Frames of Rolling Stock Based on Stress Frequency Distribution

Last updated on 04 January 2013 5:40

The fatigue strength of weld surfaces on truck frames has been estimated according to the fatigue limit diagram in JIS E 4207 - General Rules for Design of Truck Frames for Railway Rolling Stock. However, it is not possible to predict actual fatigue life using this diagram. This study demonstrates...
