Characteristics and damage mechanisms of bending fretting fatigue of materials

Abstract

Fretting fatigue has attracted substantial research interest in recent decades owing to its relevance in a wide range of applications. This paper reviews previous studies and describes ongoing research. Particularly, only a few studies on bending fretting fatigue have been conducted. This review paper emphasizes the effect of bending fretting fatigue of different materials under different operating parameters. In addition, the damage mechanisms with respect to nature of failure of materials are also discussed. This paper can be used as a reference for design and development of modern technologies and selection of appropriate material in industries.
