Fuzzy Fatigue Failure Model to Estimate the Reliability of Extend the Service Life of Rolling Stock

Abstract

In this paper we use fuzzy set of methods to solve one of the important problems in mechanical engineering: Reliability of Extending the Service Life of Rolling Stock by using Fuzzy Fatigue failure model. The residual service life for rolling stock can be changed depending on its use conditions. This paper presents a new method depending on fuzzy set theory by using the fatigue stress mathematical model to determine the residual service for rolling stock with the value of risk of its use in future. The proposed method used solid works and (Ansys) abilities with especial Fuzzy logic programs in MATLAB.
