The objectives of the project were to evaluate the safety reserves of the shafts and to apply several selected methods to assess fatigue life, to compare these methods and to gain insights for future component developments.enAntriebswelleBauteilBeanspruchungskollektivBetriebsbeanspruchungBetriebslastenanalyseconstant amplitude loadingDehnungdrive shaftEinstufenbeanspruchungFahrzeugbaufatigue life estimationfatigue strengthgearGetriebeHaigh diagramHaigh-SchaubildLastLastfolgeLastzeitfunktionLebensdauerabschätzungloadload sequenceload time historyloading spectrummachine buildingMaschinenbaumeasurementMehrstufenbeanspruchungMessungmetalMetallOberflächenbehandlungoperational load analysisoperational loadingsafetySchwingfestigkeitSicherheitSpannungSpannungsanalysestrainstressstress analysisstructural componentsurface treatmenttestvariable amplitude loadingvehicle constructionVersuch620621journal article
