A thin-wall cylinder is made of 2024-T4 aluminum alloy (σu = 430 MPa, Y = 330 MPa, and σam = 190 MPa for N = 106). The cylinder has an inside diameter of 300 mm and a wall thickness of 8.0 mm. The ends are strengthened so that fatigue failure is assumed to occur in the cylinder away from the ends. The pressure in the cylinder is cycled 106 times between pmin = −2.0 MPa and pmax = 7.0 MPa. What is the factor of safety against fatigue failure if design is based on the Gerber relation?
