Size_Factor_Round_Rotating

 

 

Size_Factor_Round_Rotating(D)

 

 

Function Size_Factor_Round_Rotating returns the endurance limit modification factor associated with size (The Marin factor k_b) for bending and torsion of round rotating bars.

 

Input:

D - diameter ([m] or [ft])

 

Output:

Returns the dimensionless endurance limit modification factor associated with size.

 

Example:  

$Load Mechanical Design

$UnitSystem SI Mass J K Pa

D=0.01 [m] 

k_b=size_factor_round_rotating(D)

 

{Solution:

k_b = 0.9692}
