Variable Fatigue Loading (20 pts). Combination of Loads. A bicycle crank is modeled using nonrotating shafts that are fixed at plane A, while the pedal is subjected to a fluctuating load. A fillet exists on the wall with a radius of 110" and fatigue stress-concentration factors of Kf,bending=Kf, torsion =1.7. The crank is made from AISI 1020 hotrolled steel (Sut=90k,Sy=50k).
Note: ka=0.569kb=0.978kc=1,kd=ke=kf=1
a. At plane A, calculate the factor of safety for fatigue based on infinite life using the modified Goodman fatigue failure criterion.
