Definitions for "ACCELERATED FATIGUE TEST"
The application, mechanically, of simulated operating loads to a machine or component to find the limit of safe fatigue life before it is reached in service.
a test which applies a cyclic loading schedule, which can be of varying frequency and / or amplitude, to a machine or component simulating its loading in service, but at a higher rate, to determine its safe fatigue life before it is reached in service.
