ABSTRACT

Steel specimens were cyclically stressed at various amplitudes [1–3]. For amplitude 32 [2,3], the thousands of cycles to failure for 24 steel specimens are listed in Table 31.1. The first failure occurred at 206 × 103 cycles. The log-Burr model was suggested for the analysis [3]. 24 Steel Specimen Cyclic (10<sup>3</sup>) Failures
