Frequency effect on fatigue life of metal-composite

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

Hi 

I have few questions:

1- why most the experimental fatigue studies on metal or metal-composites in the literature were adopted a frequency less than 35Hz (the majority of these test have conducted using 20Hz).

I ran into some articles mentioned that the frequency (0-100Hz) has a marginal effect on the fatigue life of metal. is that the only answer

 

Failure of Bonded Glass

I work for an optics company and many of its products contain lenses that are bonded together with a very thin (~0.010mm) UV curing adhesive (Norland Adhesives NOA61 is the most common). Up until recently we have never had any issues with the strength of the bond. However we have recently had a particular design fail during a temperature cycle so I am tasked with looking at why, and how to keep it from happening in the future. The temperature range isn't too scary, -40 to +85C.
