Strength-Probability-Time Diagrams using Power Law and Exponential Kinetics Models for Fatigue
نویسنده
چکیده
Strength-Probability-Time (SPT) diagrams provide an intuitively pleasing method for presenting reliability data based on extrapolations from accelerated fatigue testing data. If power-law crack growth kinetics are assumed the calculations required to generate the SPT diagram are particularly simple. However, if exponential or other more complex forms are used, this is not the case. If the accelerated data are for dynamic fatigue measurements (strength as a function of stressing rate) the SPT diagram can only be determined after numerical integration of the crack growth equations, followed by non-linear regression to the fatigue data. However, we have developed software to perform this task. In this paper we describe the methods used and show sample results of lifetime predictions using SPT diagrams. Also, the effect of using different crack growth kinetics models on predicted lifetimes is discussed.

Chemical Kinetics Models for the Fatigue Behavior of Fused Silica Optical Fiber
There have been numerous studies of the fatigue and strength behavior of fused silica optical fibers. However, no coherent model has emerged that self-consistently describes the simultaneous effects of stress, temperature and activity of the corroding species (e.g. water). A power law degradation kinetics model (relating the crack growth rate to the applied stress intensity factor, KI) is widel...

This paper reviews the dependence of strength and fatigue of fused silica optical fiber on the environmental parameters temperature, humidity and pH. It is shown that the stress corrosion parameter, n, is not a constant but depends on the nature of the environment. Further, different kinetic forms for the stress corrosion kinetics lead to different interpretations of experimental results. Since...
