Influencing factor for the permissible contact stress

Symbol Z4
Unit -
Attribute-ID z4_fva_411
Numeric ID 11492
Value Type PMDouble

By means of the user-specific influencing factors Z1 to Z5, additional Z-factors can be specified to determine the permissible contact stress according to FVA 411. Several factors are available, so that different influences (e.g.: hardening depth, shot peening) can also be taken into account in different factors when determining the contact load capacity. These factors are multiplied by the permissible contact load when determining the safety factor. Values greater than one thus increase the calculated safety factor. These factors are set to 1.0 by default.
