Reliability-based high cycle fatigue design approach of parabolic leaf spring

It is well established that the fatigue phenomenon of metallic structures such as leaf springs presents a random behavior, which is influenced by a probabilistic effect of many factors. This paper presents a probabilistic design approach to predict the high cycle fatigue behavior of a single asymmetric parabolic leaf spring. The suggested approach is used to assess the fatigue reliability of a single asymmetric parabolic leaf spring with...
