Abstract

The flaking which occurs during fatigue contact results from energization and from the spread of a crack. Studies of crack formation in a mixed mode using samples of the Brazilian disc type were conducted with a steel which had a high elasticity limit, 35NCD16. A special enclosure was designed to make the lubricant circulate round the sample with the aid of a pump. The development of the cracks is shown in the graphs. (A.P.)
