Abstract

In the present paper the authors define an original analytical expression of a corrective coefficient to evaluate fatigue damage induced by a non-Gaussian stress state affected by high Kurtosis (values higher than 5) and by zero Skewness. This approach starts from a previous activity in which the authors solved an analogous problem but for light non-Gaussian stress states (Kurtosis value less than 5). The proposed procedure assumes to know the fatigue damage induced by Gaussian equivalent stress state time domain process. This characteristic allows the proposed procedure to be easily adopted inside the so-called Frequency Domain Fatigue Methods but in parallel with the statistical analysis of the system time domain response (Kurtosis and Skewness evaluation). Interesting considerations about its applicability will be proposed as concerns the non-Gaussianity and non-Stationarity of the inputs when the system is a flexible component excited in its frequency range.
