Ear clamps are components used to securely fasten pipes and hoses in various industrial applications. They achieve clamping force by inducing plastic deformation at the ear region during installation, which can lead to accumulated structural damage and affect fatigue life. Moreover, the fatigue life is influenced by the design shape of the ear. Therefore, in this study, tensile and fatigue tests were conducted on two types of ear clamps with different ear geometries. Finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to obtain the stress distribution around the ear region, and these results were correlated with the experimentally obtained fatigue life. Based on this correlation, an S-N curve for simulation-based fatigue life estimation was established. This approach confirms the possibility of predicting the fatigue life of ear clamps with modified geometries using only finite element analysis, without the need for repeated fatigue testing.
