    The document discusses fatigue testing to determine material properties like fatigue life, strength, and limit. It outlines objectives to understand fatigue testing and S-N curves. The experimental procedure measures specimen dimensions and subjects it to cyclic loading until fracture. For brass, the S-N curve is generated and the constants A and B are calculated, finding a fatigue life of 6x10^5 cycles at 120 MPa. For steel, the fatigue limit is 290 MPa and the strength is estimated at 450 and 320 MPa for given cycle counts, but the A and B constants are not applicable. Fatigue testing provides critical data on material performance under cyclic loads.

    1- Objectives

    - To understand the definition of the fatigue test


    - To understand the stress-life data in the S-N curve
    - To find and define the fatigue life, fatigue strength, and fatigue limit.

    2- Introduction
    The definition of fatigue test is that the cycle of incremental localized irreversible
    structural change occurring in a material subjected to conditions that cause
    fluctuating stresses and strains at some stage and that may develop in cracks or full
    fractures after some fluctuations. By fatigue test we can find many properties of
    the material such as fatigue life, fatigue strength, and fatigue limit. Also, it’s
    important to do the fatigue examination so we can find how long the material will
    endure the stress. Consequently, we can determine specific materials for the
    specific projects and such us bridges, airplanes and different buildings and
    situations.

    3- Experimental Procedure
    - We measure the all dimensions of the specimen
    - Fit the sample between the grips
    - Adjust a constant load needed
    - Put the cover and fix the cycle number to zero
    - Start the machine and wait until the fracture
    -

    - The determination of A and B constants is not applicable


    - The Fatigue limit is 290 MPa
    - Estimation for fatigue strength for 2.0x 104 and 6.0x105 cycles are
    450, 320 respectively.
    - Q I: The factor of safety on life is 10
    - Q F: the safety factor on stress is 1.88

    5- Conclusion
    In Conclusion, by using Fatigue test we were able to find properties for both Brass
    and steel alloys. We calculated Fatigue life, Fatigue strength and limit. Also, we
    found the factor of life for steel alloy. we computed the constants A and B for
    Brass alloy. However, for Steel it’s not applicable to find the both constants.
    Finally, this test show us how important the fatigue test to know various materials
    for different usage in variety of applications in our life
