The conducted experimental and numerical analysis of the state of stress and strain in the innovative design of the toothed segment has enabled estimating the maximum effort of the developed structure. Based on the results of fundamental mechanical studies of the cast L20HGSNM steel and fatigue tests combined with the numerical stress/strain analysis, the fatigue life curve was plotted for the examined casting of the rack.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Assessment of Durability of the Toothed Segment Based on FEM Analysis and Low Fatigue Cycle Test}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/101938/PDF/afe-2016-0094.pdf}, doi={10.1515/afe-2016-0094}, keywords={Design life cycle, fatigue analysis, Fatigue criteria, Low Fatigue Cycle test}, }
