The combined action of cyclic stresses and a corrosive environment reduce the life of components below that expected by the action of fatigue alone. This can be reduced or prevented by;

  • Good design that reduces stress concentration
  • Avoiding sudden changes of section
  • Removing or isolating sources of cyclic stress
