Origin of research on fatigue of metallicWilhelm August Julius Albert (1787-1846)

★ He was a mining engineer in Germany working to reduce the failure accidents of chains lifting ore and coal.

★ He had developed a special type of fatigue testing machine as shown in the figure. An edge of the chain is connected to the tip of the arm and a plate is connected to the other end. Thus, if the wheel is turning around, cyclic loads can be applied to the chain.

3) The tensile strength at the stress ratein cyclic loadings would be muchhigher than the value in the usualtensile test.
