A study of the effect of repeated tension impact loads upon certain metals used in aircraft construction

A test method is developed for evaluating the Impact Endurance Limit of a material. The Impact Endurance Limit is defined as the energy per blow in tensile impact loading below which the specimen will withstand an indefinitely large number of blows without rupture, and this value is given for ALCOA...
