Effect of Residual Stresses on Fatigue Strength on the Smooth and Splined Parts of Spring Torsion Bars

The article discusses the effect of residual stresses on the fatigue strength of torsion bars by using the Dang Van fatigue criterion, at the stress concentration at the root of the tooth and at the smooth part of the torsion bar. Residual compressive stresses were induced on the surface during the...
