Specia; dimculty has been ex- perienced in making fatigue tests on wire. Some twenty-five years ago, in the University of Glasgow, a small fatigue machine of the Haigh electro-magnetic type was used for testing steel wire under palsating tension and was des- cribed in ur columns; but the investigation proved abortive as rearly all the samples fractured at the ends-where the

grips produce abnormal tresses that eannot be calculated. The sake difficulty has been experienced in different degrees, in many sub- sequent investigations, but has now been "overcome, and it may be expected therefore that cur- rent and future research will prove more fruitful. In fact, the fatigue strength of wire can now be determined with less difficulty than that of any other material, and It seems probable that this facility in testing will bring to light much information of prac tical and scientific value.

STRESS VÄRIES

The difficulty in question has been overcome in two distinct ways. In the first method, the ends of the samples are streng- thened by polishing or burnishing and are then enlarged by plating or gripped directly by cushions of soft metal or paper so that the

local concentrations of stress at the grips are reduced to a mini- nation within the capacity of the strengthened material in the second method, the sample of wire is load In such a manner that the stress varies alang ita length and is greatly lessened at the ends compared with the middle so that fracture oceurs at mid-length remote from the grips When the first method can be employed, the samples cán þe, tested either in bending or in pulsating tension as may be. desired, but the second appear. to be applicable only, for berd fests: The use of the two
