| description | Understanding the fatigue behaviors of weld joints is significant in engineering practice. Rotary friction welding (RFW) can join the additively manufactured polymer components. Until now, no research has focused on the fatigue behavior of polymer components jointed via RFW. This study investigates the fatigue life of ABS/PC dissimilar components fabricated via RFW and proposes the fatigue mechanism based on the failure structure. This work uses five different cyclic loads and rotational speeds to investigate the fatigue life. The fatigue life of the RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar rods is better compared with the pure ABS and pure PC specimens due to weld and integrity microstructural changes resulting from the combination of ABS and PC materials. The number of cycles until the rupture of RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar components (y) can be determined by the cyclic load (x) according to the prediction equation of y = −838.25x<sup>2</sup> − 2035.8x + 67,262. The fatigue life of the RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar components increase with the increased rotational speed. The number of cycles until rupture (y) can be determined by the different rotational speeds (x) according to the prediction equation of y = 315.21x<sup>2</sup> + 2710.4x + 32,124. |
