Understanding fatigue properties is one of the most crucial elements of research and development, product safety, and material verification programs.

In this free, 60-minute webinar, Element’s John M. Tartaglia explores the different types of fatigue testing for automotive materials.

The expert will provide unique insight into the fundamental concepts and mathematics between axial stress-life high cycle fatigue and axial strain-life low cycle fatigue and explain the impacts of cyclic hardening and softening on automotive materials.

Key topics and takeaways:

• Definition of fatigue in automotive materials
• Fundamentals of axial stress-life high cycle fatigue and axial strain-life low cycle fatigue
• Explanation of cyclic hardening and softening
