Knovel Problems:
K7-1 A hollow shaft made from AISI 4340 steel has an outer diameter Do of 102 mm and
an inner diameter Di of 63.5 mm. The shaft rotates at 46 rpm one hour a day. It is
supported by two bearings and loaded in the middle with a load W of 24.47 kN. The
distance between the bearings L is 1.98 m. The maximum tensile stress due to
bending for this type of cyclic loading is calculated using the following equation:

8W LDo
σm =
π (Do4 − Di4 )

What is the stress ratio for this type of cyclic loading? Would this shaft last for
one year assuming a safety factor of 2?
Knovel Solutions:
The maximum stress in the shaft is
8⋅ ⋅ ⋅ 8 ⋅ 24470 ⋅ 1.98 ⋅ 0.102
= = 136.813
− 0.102 − 0.0635

Search for (“cyclic loading” AND “stress ratio”) on Knovel. Open the section Applied
Cyclic Stresses in the title Encyclopedia of Materials - Science and Technology, Volumes
1-11 (Elsevier © 2001):

The stress ratio R is defined as the ratio of minimum stress to maximum stress. In this
case, the cyclic stresses are symmetrical with the minimum stress being compressive
(negative) and the maximum stress being tensile (positive). Hence, R = –1.

Then, search for ‘AISI 4340 AND fatigue’. Click on the text link for 2.3.1.1 AISI Low-
Alloy Steels in the title Metallic Materials Properties Development and Standardization
(MMPDS-04). Browse to find Figure 2.3.1.3.8(a). Best-fit S/N curves for unnotched AISI
4340 alloy steel bar, Ftu =125 ksi, longitudinal direction (pages 2–45). Click on the Live
Graph link for this figure and plot fatigue life (N) equal to approximately 106 cycles:
The maximum stress for this fatigue life is about 51 ksi.

Using the Unit Converter (Tools menu) on Knovel for the stress:
This value exceeds the calculated value of 136.813 MPa by a factor of 2.573, which is
greater than the specified safety factor of 2.
