Construction parts of newly introduced transport vehicles, operating at high velocities and at long distances, reach during their lifetime very high numbers of loading cycles, in order of 10<sup>9</sup>. For this reason, values of fatigue limits for 10<sup>9</sup> cycles must be considered in design and construction of transport vehicles. In this study, authors present how dramatically will change the design of shaft, when fatigue limit for 10<sup>9</sup> cycles is considered.</p> ER -
