Fatique loading conditions produces stresses that vary with time or they
fluctuate between different levels. These stresses are called variable,
repeated, alternating, or fluctuating stresses.
In a fatigue failure;
*Maximum stresses of failure are well below the ultimate strength of the
material, and quite frequently below the yield strength.
Steel
The results of the test are represented by S-N curve
Aluminum
alloy
The ordinate of the S-N diagram is called fatigue strength
The abscissa of the S-N diagram is the stress cycle
A stress cycle (N = 1) constitute a single application and removal
of a load and another application and removal of the load in the
opposite direction one complete rotation of beam under pure
bending.
The stress corresponding to the knee is
called endurance limit
The cycle corresponding to is called
endurance limit life
Aluminum does not have an endurance
limit and then the fatigue strength is
reported at a specific number of cycle
(normally at cycles of reversed
stress)

For torsion, use only for pure torsional fatigue loading. When torsion
is combined to other stresses, such as bending, use kc= 1.
