Summary of Test Method4.1 Procedure AA specimen of rectangular cross section is braced by two double-sided supports and is loaded by means ofa d
20、ouble-sided loading nose midway between the supports.Asupport span-to-depth ratio of 16:1 is used.The specimen is cyclicallyloaded equally in the positive and negative directions to a specific stress or strain level at a uniform frequency until the specimenruptures or yields. From these tests, fatig
21、ue strengths can be determined at specified numbers of cycles.At least four different stressor strain levels are tested to construct a stress versus number of cycles to failure (S-N) curve or a strain versus number of cyclesto failure (r-N) to determine the flexural endurance limit of the material.4
22、.2 Procedure BA specimen of rectangular cross section is braced by two double-sided supports and is loaded by means oftwo double-sided loading noses, each an equal distance from the adjacent support. Load span-to-support span ratios can be 1:2 or1:3. The specimen is cyclically loaded equally in the
23、positive and negative directions to a specific stress or strain level at a uniformfrequency until the specimen ruptures or yields. From these tests, fatigue strengths can be determined at specified numbers ofcycles. At least four different stress or strain levels are tested to construct a stress ver
24、sus number of cycles to failure (S-N) curveor a strain versus number of cycles to failure (r-N) to determine the flexural endurance limit of the material.5. Significance and Use5.1 These fatigue tests are used to determine the effect of processing, surface condition, stress, and so forth, on the fat
25、igueresistance of plastic material subjected to flexural stress for relatively large numbers of cycles. The results can also be used as aguide for the selection of plastic materials for service under conditions of repeated flexural stress.5.2 Properties can vary with specimen depth and test frequenc
26、y. Test frequency can be 1-25 Hz but it is recommended that afrequency of 5 Hz or less be used.5.3 Material response in fatigue is not identical for all plastics. If a plastic does not exhibit an elastic region, where strain isreversible, plastic deformation will occur during fatigue testing, causin
27、g the amplitude of the programmed load or deformation tochange during testing. In this situation, caution shall be taken when using the results for design as they are generally not indicativeof the true fatigue properties of the material.5.4 The results of these fatigue tests are suitable for applic
28、ation in design only when the specimen test conditions realisticallysimulate service conditions or some methodology of accounting for service conditions is available and clearly defined.5.5 This procedure accommodates various specimen preparation techniques. Comparison of results obtained from speci
29、mensprepared in different manners shall not be considered comparable unless equivalency has been demonstrated.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachineThe testing machine shall essentially meet the specifications of Test Method D790 except as describedbelow. The error in the deflection measuring system shall
30、not exceed 60.5 % of the maximum deflection. The machine shall beable to execute sinusoidal or square/trapezoidal load or deflection programs at the specified test frequency and maintain an errorof 61 % or less of the maximum programmed load or deflection.6.2 Recording EquipmentCalibrated equipment
31、must be used to record the following information during testing at a dataacquisition rate and filter in accordance with Guide E1942:6.2.1 Load versus time,6.2.2 Deflection versus time, and6.2.3 Number of cycles.4 Available from American National Standards Institute (ANSI), 25 W. 43rd St., 4th Floor,

Two double-sided loading noses and two double-sided supportsare required for this procedure. One side loads or supports the top of the specimen and the other loa
36、ds or supports the bottom ofthe specimen. The dimensions of both sides shall be identical. The radii of the noses and supports will be in accordance with TestMethod D6272.

Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units7.1 Specimens shall be taken from samples that accurately represent the material or design that is being tested.7.2 The specimens can be cut from
