SYNOPSIS
Experimental research on the behaviour of concrete subjected to variable repeti—
tive loads is described. Constant—amplitude fatigue tests, variable load fatigue
tests, and random load fatigue tests are performed, Fatigue lives are evaluated
by Miner sum (M) and M (mean value of M) are discussed. The applicability of
Miner's hypothesis to fatigue of concrete is also examined.

S. Nishibayashi is 21 professor of civil engineering at ‘Tottori 'University,
Tottori, Japan. He received his Doctor of Engineering Degree from Kyoto University in 1968. His research interests cover fatigue properties of concrete and
concrete members, durability of concrete, the properties of snqmrplasticized
concrete, and alkali—aggregate reaction. He was awarded a JSCE prize (Yoshida
Prize) in 1969 for a study of the properties of artificial lightweight aggregate
concrete. Dr. Nishibayashi is a member of ACI, JSCE, JSMS, and JCI.
S. Inoue is an associate professor of civil engineering at Tottori University.
He received his Doctor of Engineering Degree from Kyoto University in 1985. His
research interests include the properties of fatigue of concrete and concrete
members, and durability of concrete. He is a member of JSCE, JSMS, IYABSE, and
JCI.
