Abstract

Investigation of the effect of nickel and chromium plates on the endurance limit of medium-strength low-alloy steel show that this effect is equal within experimental error to the rersidual stress in the plate plus a constant, and can be expressed by a simple equation. Vaues of the constants have been derived.
