Description
This Zenodo record contains the public participant package for the FABEST High-Cycle Fatigue (HCF) Competition, a blind round-robin benchmark for fatigue-life prediction of 42CrMo4+QT steel under multiaxial high-cycle fatigue loading.
Participants are asked to submit fatigue-life predictions for plain and notched hollow cylindrical specimens subjected to combined axial and torsional loading, including in-phase and 90° out-of-phase loading histories, with constant internal pressure.
The package includes the competition rules, start-here guide, experimental basis, calibration data, public blind load matrix, specimen geometry information, manufacturing documentation, roughness and residual-stress characterisation, test setup and test-sequence descriptions, and participant submission templates.
All files are provided as zipped folders to preserve the folder structure of the competition package.
Technical info (English)
The measured fatigue lives of the blind target specimens are not included in this public launch package. They will be released only after the competition deadline and post-processing of the submitted predictions.
