Abstract

Wheel Eurocycle (EC) loading condition could be adapted to hub as a result of similar loading characteristics on vehicle. A correlation is constructed between road load data (RLD) for specified vehicles and EC test spectrum. To provide correlation between EC and RLD, test speed, axial and lateral loads at EC are converted to cyclic loading condition and relevant loading scenarios are generated. Rotational effect is taken into account. Pseudo-damage results of RLD and EC spectra are compared and expected fatigue lifetime for hub is presented.
