I am looking for info and methodology on calculating fatigue life of a Inconel X750 wire torsion spring. Does anyone have some suggestions or references.
I am analyzing a drive train consisting of a motor, transfer case, driven load, and a flywheel case. The motor housing is directly coupled to the transfer case, which transfers the motor torque thru a belt to treadmill front roller, which is the load in this case. Directly coupled to the front...
I have a question about standard methodology that bearing manufacturers use to grade bearings. I guess this is a Machine Design 101 (Shigley) question. I have been asked to specify a 'margin of safety' against static and dynamic loads. Is this accepted practice for a bearing, or are we only...
I am searching for a numerical method that allows me to determine the fatigue life of a rubber roller due to cyclic loading on the outside diameter that is compressive only. All I can find to date are industry-specific test methods per ASTM or ANSI for example. Thanks for any leads or ideas you...
