K. Kim et Kc. Ludema, A CORRELATION BETWEEN LOW-CYCLE FATIGUE PROPERTIES AND SCUFFING PROPERTIES OF 4340-STEEL, Journal of tribology, 117(4), 1995, pp. 617-621
A correlation is demonstrated between the low-cycle fatigue properties
and the scuff resisting properties of 4340 steel. Low cycle fatigue p
roperties were estimated from measured tensile properties for specimen
s with a wide range of hardness. Scuff resistance was measured in slid
ing tests using white mineral oil as the lubricant.
