3 Permissible stress range under dynamic loading

In the case of dynamically loaded springs, the permissible stress range is limited by the required
minimum number

of cycles and by the given wire or bar diameter.

The stress correction factor k shall be taken into consideration for the calculation. Stress range
τkh, as illustrated in

Figure 10 is the difference between τk1 and τk2.

between two positions sh shall not exceed the value of the low cycle or infinite life fatigue limit
τkh (....) which is

determined from Figures 11 to 22. In the case of dynamically loaded springs, the solid length
torsional stress τc zul

shall also be verified taking into account the possibility that additional torsional stresses may be
superimposed as a

result of resonance in the spring body.

All dynamically loaded springs should be shot peened. Shot-peening is feasible, as a rule, in
respect of springs with

a nominal diameter of wire, d > 1 mm, a spring index, w < 15 and a gap between active coils, a0
> d. The process of

shot peening shall be defined in accordance with ISO 26910-1. The peening intensity and
coverage should be as

agreed between the purchaser and the supplier.
