Summary

This engineering study tested fatigue behavior in AZ31B magnesium alloy, measuring how the material generates heat under stress in different orientations to predict its fatigue limit. The research has no direct relevance to microplastic or environmental health topics.

AZ31B magnesium alloy is the experimental material in this study. Considering its anisotropy, fatigue assessment based on self-heating is carried out for both the extrusion direction and the transverse direction. The self-heating behavior in the two orientations is compared. Similar to steels, an obvious inflection point that corresponds to the fatigue limit can be found in the self-heating vs. load curve for AZ31B. A new fatigue limit assessment method is proposed based on a statistical analysis of self-heating data. This method can provide a satisfactory assessment of the fatigue limit for AZ31B in the both orientations.
