How to set the Neuber correction?

As depicted in Fig._1, the Neuber correction can be set into three steps: Using elastic calculation methods compute the stress and strain at the fatigue hot-spot. Compute the energy or product of elastic stress multiplied by elastic strain. Using the stabilized cyclic stress-strain curve of the material

What is the Neuber method?

This approach is slightly conservative as you could equate this to the total area under the elasto-plastic material curve which would further lower the corrected stress. The Neuber method equates the areas of the two triangles to reduce the high elastic stress.

How to apply Neuber's rule to plastic deformation?

It is used to convert elastic stress/strain into real stress/strain when plastic deformation occurs. To apply Neuber’s rule, compute stress (K t S) at a notch with elastic assumptions and when the stress exceeds the strength of the material, the real stress will be somewhere on the materials stress-strain curve at a point ?.

How is life calculated using Neuber plasticity correction?

response to the nominal stress inputs as predicted by the Neuber plasticity correction. Life is computed by using the local stress-strain loops maximum and minimum stresses and strains. The software that performs these calculations is available in a link under the topic Other Linksbelow.
