Calculation of the fatigue life of plastics with allowance for local overheating

Polymer Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The local overheating at the tips of growing cracks in cyclically loaded plastics is examined on the assumption that there is almost no change in overheating up to failure (relatively small load amplitudes). A method is proposed for estimating the fatigue life of solids and polymers with allowance for local overheating or local aging of the material. A comparison of the formulas obtained with the experimental data confirms the importance of overheating in cyclic loading as compared with other manifestations of the local relaxation processes.
