The corrosion fatigue behavior of an Al-2.5 pct Li-0.12 pct Zr alloy has been studied as a function of heat treatment by performing
smooth specimen fatigue life experiments on differently aged alloys in dry air and humid nitrogen. Results indicated that
aging decreased the fatigue life of the Al-Li-Zr alloy in dry air. However, exposure to water vapor reduced the fatigue resistance
of the underaged (UA) alloys but increased the fatigue life of the overaged alloys (OA) alloys. Hydrogen precharging experiments
(either exposure to moist air or cathodic charging in HC1 solutions) followed by fatigue testing in dry air confirmed that
the UA alloys were susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement and that the OA alloys were insensitive to a hydrogen effect. The
experimental results suggest that the susceptibility of the Al-Li-Zr alloy to hydrogen-assisted fracture is essentially related
to the effectiveness of hydrogen transport to the region ahead of the crack tip, which is controlled by the microstructure
of the alloy. Environmental and aging effects which influence the fatigue characteristics of the studied alloy are discussed. 相似文献

The influences of microstructure and deformation mode on inert environment intrinsic fatigue crack propagation were investigated
for Al-Li-Cu-Mg alloys AA2090, AA8090, and X2095 compared to AA2024. The amount of coherent shearable δ (Al3Li) precipitates and extent of localized planar slip deformation were reduced by composition (increased Cu/Li in X2095) and
heat treatment (double aging of AA8090). Intrinsic growth rates, obtained at high constantK
max to minimize crack closure and in vacuum to eliminate any environmental effect, were alloy dependent;da/dN varied up to tenfold based on applied ΔK or ΔK/E. When compared based on a crack tip cyclic strain or opening displacement parameter (ΔK/(σys
E)1/2), growth rates were equivalent for all alloys except X2095-T8 which exhibited unique fatigue crack growth resistance. Tortuous
fatigue crack profiles and large fracture surface facets were observed for each Al-Li alloy independent of the precipitates
present, particularly δ, and the localized slip deformation structure. Reduced fatigue crack propagation rates for X2095 in
vacuum are not explained by either residual crack closure or slip reversibility arguments; the origin of apparent slip band
facets in a homogeneous slip alloy is unclear. Better understanding of crack tip damage accumulation and fracture surface
facet crystallography is required for Al-Li alloys with varying slip localization. 相似文献

The fatigue crack propagation behavior of a class of metastable austenitic steels called TRIP steels has been investigated.
The alloy composition was chosen to have theMs well below room temperature and theMD above room temperature after thermomechanical processing. A simple theoretical model of fatigue crack propagation (FCP) based
on fracture mechanics was developed. Fatigue crack propagation tests on SEN specimens at various stress intensity ranges (ΔK) were carried out, and two stage plastic-carbon replica were used to observe the fracture surface of the FCP specimens. To
a first approximation, both the experimental and theoretical results followed the usual relationship between ΔK and FCP rates;i.e. da/dn ∝ (ΔK).4 The fatigue fracture surface contained fatigue striations, quasicleavage and elongated dimples; a reflection of the complex
structure of TRIP steels. A beneficial effect of strain induced martensite transformation with regards to fatigue crack propagation
was found. TRIP steels showed better FCP properties than a number of alloy steels of similar strength levels and compared
favorably with mar aging steels in the low ΔK range. 相似文献

Low-cycle fatigue behavior of INCONEL 718 superalloy with different concentrations of boron at room temperature 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Symmetrical push-pull low-cycle fatigue (LCF) tests were performed on INCONEL 718 superalloy containing 12, 29, 60, and 100
ppm boron (B) at room temperature (RT). The results showed that all four of these alloys experienced a relatively short period
of initial cyclic hardening, followed by a regime of softening to fracture at higher cyclic strain amplitudes (Δɛ
t
/2≥0.8 pct). As the cyclic strain amplitude decreased to Δɛ
t
/2≤0.6 pct, a continuous cyclic softening occurred without the initial cyclic hardening, and a nearly stable cyclic stress
amplitude was observed at Δɛ
t
/2=0.4 pct. At the same total cyclic strain amplitude, the cyclic saturation stress amplitude among the four alloys was highest
in the alloy with 60 ppm B and lowest in the alloy with 29 ppm B. The fatigue lifetime of the alloy at RT was found to be
enhanced by an increase in B concentration from 12 to 29 ppm. However, the improvement in fatigue lifetime was moderate when
the B concentration exceeded 29 ppm B. A linear relationship between the fatigue life and cyclic total strain amplitude was
observed, while a “two-slope” relationship between the fatigue life and cyclic plastic strain amplitude was observed with
an inflection point at about Δɛ
p
/2=0.40 pct. The fractographic analyses suggested that fatigue cracks initiated from specimen surfaces, and transgranular
fracture, with well-developed fatigue striations, was the predominant fracture mode. The number of secondary cracks was higher
in the alloys with 12 and 100 ppm B than in the alloys with 29 and 60 ppm B. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examination
revealed that typical deformation microstructures consisted of a regularly spaced array of planar deformation bands on {111}
slip planes in all four alloys. Plastic deformation was observed to be concentrated in localized regions in the fatigued alloy
with 12 ppm B. In all of the alloys, γ″ precipitate particles were observed to be sheared, and continued cyclic deformation reduced their size. The observed cyclic
deformation softening was associated with the reduction in the size of γ″ precipitate particles. The effect of B concentration on the cyclic deformation mechanism and fatigue lifetime of IN 718 was
discussed. 相似文献

A high purity Al-4 pct Cu alloy has been overaged for two different times at 400°C giving interparticle spacings (λ) of about
0.53 and 1.37 μm. Cyclic plasticity of the alloy with the smaller interparticle spacing can be explained in terms of plastic
deformation behavior controlled by the structure whereas that for the alloy with the larger interparticle spacing is controlled
by the matrix. The fatigue lives of the weaker alloy (λ = 1.37 μm) may be accurately predicted using the models of Coffin-Manson
and Tomkins, however, these models are not applicable to the stronger alloy (λ = 0.53 μm). It was found that the crack tip
opening displacement at the threshold stress intensity range (ΔKth) was equivalent to the interparticle spacing. ΔKth is related to the cyclic yield stress, σcy and the interparticle spacing in the following manner: ΔKth ≈ (2 Eλσcy)1/2, whereE is the modulus of elasticity. In the present case, the term λσcy is constant, giving the impression that ΔKth is independent of the mechanical properties and microstructure. At very low growth rates, however, the fatigue crack growth
is independent of these parameters and also the method of cyclic deformation. A transition to higher crack growth rates occurs
when the plastic zone size reaches approximately one-seventh of the specimen thickness, allowing a nonplanar crack front to
be developed. The value of the stress intensity range (ΔKT) at this transition was found to be dependent upon the interparticle spacing according to the relation: ΔKTλ = 9.6 Pa-m3/2.

A damage equation based upon the integration of low cycle fatigue plastic strain ranges was verified experimentally for two
high strength aluminum alloys 2024-T4 and 7075-T651. The damage equation which has been used extensively for many fatigue
crack propagation theories assumes cyclic damage under increasing plastic strain ranges. In order to verify the damage equation,
low cycle fatigue specimens were subjected to a fully reversed strain cycle in which the total strain-range was increased
linearly by a constant amount Δ[Δεd] per cycle. An excellent agreement was obtained between the predicted and observed fatigue lifetimes. The stress-strain response
of these alloys was also measured. The experimental results showed that these two alloys cyclically harden substantially and
that the single strain increment stress-strain curve is a fair lower bound approximation of the cyclic stress-strain curve. 相似文献

Uniaxial tensile tests were performed to examine the influence of the precipitation state on the yield strength and work-hardening
behavior of AA2219 for different aging treatments. The microstructural observations in four aging treatments (viz. natural aging, underaging, peak aging, and overaging) were made through transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to understand
the type of phase or intermediate stages of the phase present (Guinier–Preston (GP) zones, θ″, θ′, and θ). To characterize the work-hardening behavior, the analysis of the experimental results has focused on two parameters, viz. the initial work-hardening rate Θmax (≡dσ/dε) and the slope (dΘ/dσ) of the Θ-σ plot, which is related to the rate of dynamic recovery. The initial work-hardening rate (Θmax) first drops as aging proceeds and then increases significantly upon overaging. The large increase in Θmax is also associated with a concomitant increase in the slope (dΘ/dσ) of the Θ-σ curve. The material constants in the differential equation for the dislocation density are evaluated and flow stress vs plastic strain curves are generated using the flow stress contributions from the solid-solution, dislocation, and precipitation
hardening. The model predictions are found to be in excellent agreement with the experimental data for a range of precipitation
states from underaged (UA) to overaged (OA) conditions. Curves of flow stress due to dislocation hardening with the plastic
strain were also generated in the presence of shearable and nonshearable precipitates. 相似文献

A series of Ni-15 Cr-Al-Ti-Mo alloys with varying γy-γ’ mismatch, Ti/Al atomic ratio, and weight fraction of γ’ were tension tested at ambient temperature after aging to peak yield
strength at 760°C. After subtracting the alloy yield stress in the solution treated condition, σss, the increment in yield
stress due to precipitation of γ’, Δσy, was found to be principally influenced by the weight fraction of γ’ and the measured
γ-γ’ mismatch. Only a small contribution of APBE to alloy strength was observed between two compositions of similar mismatch and
differing measured APBE. The work hardening behavior of the alloys was similarly influenced by weight fraction of γ’ and γy-γ’ mismatch. Alloys with low mismatch exhibited sheared γ’ precipitates following tensile deformation. A model for shear of
ordered γ’ precipitates by residual dislocation loops in low γ-γ’ mismatch alloys is proposed to account for the low work hardening rates observed. 相似文献

The cyclic stress-strain curves, the low cycle and high cycle fatigue lives and the fatigue crack growth rates of annealed
(1 h 820°C) and aged (3 h 480°C) maraging steel 300 were determined. Incremental step testing and stable hysteresis loop tip
measurements were used to determine the cyclic σ-ε curves. Both annealed and aged maraging steels were found to cyclically soften at room temperature over a plastic strain
range from 0.1 to 20 pct. The S-N curves were determined from 10 to 107 cycles to failure by plastic strain controlled low cycle fatigue tests performed in air and load controlled high cycle fatigue
tests performed in dry argon. The test results compared very well with the theoretical lifetime predictions derived from Tomkins’
theory. Fatigue crack growth rates were measured in air and dry argon for the annealed and aged alloys. Crack growth rates
of annealed maraging steel were found to be equal to those of aged maraging steel at rates between 10-7 and 10-5 in./cycle. A significant difference in crack growth rates in the two environments was found at low stress intensity factor
ranges, indicating a high susceptibility to corrosion fatigue in the presence of water vapor. The mechanisms of cyclic softening
in the two alloys are discussed in terms of dislocations rearrangement in the annealed alloy and dislocation-precipitate interactions
in the aged alloy. 相似文献

Using the constant amplitude fatigue data at various stress ratios, the constant fatigue life (CFL) diagram was constructed
for the CFC material which is useful in prediction of fatigue life under variable amplitude fatigue loads. A quasi-isotropic
lay-up sequenced carbon fiber-epoxy composite (CFC) laminate was fabricated by resin infusion technique. The tensile and compression
tests were carried out to determine the static strength of the material. About 175 mm long, constant rectangular cross-sectioned
fatigue test specimens were cut and prepared from the laminate. The stress-controlled, constant-amplitude fatigue tests were
conducted in a 100 kN servo-hydraulic test machine, at room temperature and in lab air atmosphere. All the fatigue tests were
performed with a sinusoidal waveform and a frequency of 1–3 Hz. The fatigue tests were conducted at four different stress
ratio, R = σmin/σmax, Viz., 0.7,0.5 (tension-tension), −1.0 (tension-compression), and 4.0 (compression-compression). Anti-buckling guide was
employed during the fatigue tests which involved compressive load cycles. The CFL Diagrams are material specific with predictive
capability for any designed levels from selective experimental data. 相似文献

The relationship between impact damage and the fatigue behavior of γ-TiAl has been examined. Axial fatigue specimens fabricated from cast Ti-47.9Al-2.0Cr-1.9Nb (to be referred to as 48-2-2)
and Ti-47.3Al-2.2Nb-0.5Mn-0.4W-0.4Mo-0.23Si (to be referred to as WMS) alloys were damaged by impact under controlled conditions
with a 60 deg wedge-shaped indenter to simulate assembly-related damage in low-pressure turbine blades. The level of damage
produced was quantified and found to correlate well with the peak load of the impact event. The WMS alloy exhibited a greater
resistance to impact damage due to its higher yield strength and lamellar microstructure. A measure of the ambient-temperature
fatigue failure stress in the alloys was obtained by standard fatigue testing employing a step-loading approach. The failure
stress of the WMS alloy was greater than that of the 48-2-2 alloy in the undamaged state. The relationship between impact
damage and failure stress was examined using a threshold-based approach. These studies indicate that, for damage levels below
a transitional flaw size, the failure stress is near that for undamaged specimens. At damage levels greater than the transitional
flaw size, the failure stress can be adequately approximated using the threshold stress-intensity range (ΔK
TH
) from long-crack growth testing. Fractographic studies were performed to investigate impact damage and crack-advance mechanisms,
which match those observed in other alloys tested at room temperature. 相似文献

Fatigue cracks were propagated through carburized cases in M-50NiL (0.1 C,4 Mo, 4 Cr, 1.3 V, 3.5 Ni) and CBS-1000M (0.1 C,
4.5 Mo, 1 Cr, 0.5 V, 3 Ni) steels at constant stress intensity ranges, ΔK, and at a constant cyclic peak load. Residual compressive
stresses of the order of 140 MPa (20 Ksi) were developed in the M-50NiL cases, and in tests carried out at constant ΔK values
it was observed that the fatigue crack propagation rates,da/dN, slowed significantly. In some tests, at constant peak loads, cracks were stopped in regions with high compressive stresses.
The residual stresses in the cases in CBS-1000M steel were predominantly tensile, probably because of the presence of high
retained austenite contents, andda/dN was accelerated in these cases. The effects of residual stress on the fatigue crack propagation rates are interpreted in
terms of a pinched clothespin model in which the residual stresses introduce an internal stress intensity, Ki where Ki, = σid
i
1/2
(σi = internal stress, di = characteristic distance associated with the internal stress distribution). The effective stress intensity becomes Ke
= Ka
+ Ki where Ka is the applied stress intensity. Values of Ki were calculated as a function of distance from the surface using experimental measurements of σi and a value of di
= 11 mm (0.43 inch). The resultant values of Ke were taken to be equivalent to effective ΔK values, andda/dN was determined at each point from experimental measurements of fatigue crack propagation obtained separately for the case
and core materials. A reasonably good fit was obtained with data for crack growth at a constant ΔK and at a constant cyclic
peak load. The carburized case depths were approximately 4 mm, and the possible effects associated with the propagation of
short cracks were considered. The major effects were observed at crack lengths of about 2 mm, but the contributions of short
crack phenomena were considered to be small in these experiments, since the two steels were at high strength levels, and short
cracks would be expected to be of the order of 10 μm. Also, the two other steels behaved differently and in a way which followed
the residual stress patterns. Both M-50NiL and CBS-1000M have a high fracture toughness, with Klc = 50 MPa · m1/2 (45 Ksi · in1/2), and the carburized cases exhibit excellent resistance to rolling contact fatigue. Thus, M-50NiL, carburized, may be useful
for bearings where high tensile hoop stresses are developed, since fatigue cracks are slowed in the case by the residual compressive
stresses, and fracture is resisted by the relatively tough core. 相似文献

The plastic work per unit area of fatigue crack propagation,U, is one of the parameters controlling the rate of fatigue crack propagation,dc/dN. The equation,dc/dN = A ΔK
4/(σfy
2μ U), was previously shown to fit the data for 7 iron and aluminum base alloys for the range of thedc/dN vs ΔK curve where the Paris relation is valid. Values ofU are now available for 6 additional alloys covering a much wider range of σy 42 to 868 MN/m2. For the total populationA = (2.8 ± 0.9) X 10-3 where 2.8 is the mean and 0.9 is the standard deviation. In this equation, σy is the 0.2 pct offset cyclic yield stress and μ is the shear modulus. The parameterU is related to microstructure and should be of interest to the metallurgist. Generally,U varies oppositely to σy due to decrease in the plastic zone size; however, the plastic strain amplitude and degree of localization of the plastic
strain in the plastic zone are also important. 相似文献

The micromechanics of small, naturally initiated fatigue cracks and large through-thickness fatigue cracks have been studied
in the titanium aluminide alloy Super Alpha 2. The microstructure investigated had equal volume fractions ofα
2 and Β phases. Crack growth rates were higher than through α-Β titanium alloys. Initiation of small cracks was found always
to occur in theα
2 phase, and small cracks grew belowΔK
th, the minimum cyclic stress intensity required for growth of large fatigue cracks. A method previously proposed for reconciling
the growth rates of large and small cracks is applied to these results. 相似文献

Measurement of the threshold for fatigue macrocrack propagation, ΔKo, in a number of aluminum alloys has shown an increase with grain size and decrease with increase in strength as with steels.
The results are not primarily due to environmental enhancement of fatigue crack growth because an even larger variation in
ΔKo with microstructural change is noted at 77 K than at 300 K. In particular, ΔKo of high purity 2124-T4 increases much more on cooling from 300 to 77 K than does ΔKo of 2024-T4. It is suggested that ΔKo is determined by the stress necessary to operate a dislocation source near the crack tip. A Frank-Read type source is proposed
for 2024-T4 with constituent particles acting as pinning points while double cross-slip, a thermally activated process, is
proposed for the source in high purity 2124-T4. 相似文献

This article reports research on the initiation and growth of small fatigue cracks in a nickel-base superalloy (produced commercially
by INCO as INCOLOY* 908) at 298 and 77 K. The experimental samples were square-bar specimens with polished surfaces, loaded
in fourpoint bending. The crack initiation sites, crack growth rates, and microstructural crack paths were determined, as
was the large-crack growth behavior, both at constant load ratio (R) and at constant maximum stress intensity (K
max). Small surface cracks initiated predominantly at (Nb,Ti)xCy, inclusion particles, and, less frequently, at grain boundaries. Small cracks grew predominantly along {111} planes in individual
grains and were perturbed or arrested at grain boundaries. For values of ΔK above the large-crack threshold, ΔK
th, the average rate of smallcrack growth was reasonably close to that of large cracks tested under closure-free conditions.
However, short-crack growth rates varied widely, reflecting the local heterogeneity of the microstructure. The threshold cyclic
stress (Δσth) and the threshold cyclic stress intensity (ΔKσth) for small surface cracks were measured as functions of the crack size, 2c. The results suggest that a combination of the fatigue endurance limit and the threshold stress intensity for closure-free
growth of large cracks can be used to define a fatigue-safe load regime.

Strain-controlled fatigue tests have been conducted on center-holed 304 stainless steel specimens. The fraction of total fatigue
life spent until formation of an “engineering” crack ranged from about 15 to 85 pct, indicating the potential importance of
being able to predict the fatigue crack formation life. A “just formed engineering crack,” as defined here, is a through crack
long in the thickness direction, which has just emerged from the center hole. An energy based parameter, ΔσrΔε,, has been
shown to correlate with the appearance of fatigue cracks in the center-holed 304 stainless steel specimens. This parameter
is suggested to be more useful in predicting fatigue crack formation life than Δσ or Δε, alone. A good correlation was found
over the limited range of data for two types of 304 stainless steel, a powder metallurgy (PM) stainless steel with higher
than normal strength prop-erties and an ingot metallurgy (IM) stainless steel with normal strength properties. A better correlation
was found for strain-controlled fatigue tests which did not go into compressive strain than for com-pletely reversed fatigue.

The present study is aimed to understand the influence of dynamic precipitation on the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of an under-aged (UA) AA6063 Al–Mg–Si alloy. This was accomplished by the estimation of plastic strain energy density (PSED) at varied isolated cycles during LCF of the UA alloy with subsequent comparison of these results with those of peak-aged (PA) and over-aged (OA) ones. The LCF tests of the UA alloy were carried out in the range of strain amplitudes of 0.2–1.0 % together with the evolution of hardness and tensile properties. The UA alloy shows Masing behavior, evaluated in terms of the variation of Bauschinger strain with plastic strain amplitude, and exhibits continuous hardening till failure unlike the PA and OA alloys. Higher average PSED value for the UA alloy in comparison to that for the PA and the OA alloys indicates dynamic precipitation during cycling; the magnitudes of average PSED were calculated using a proposed method. In addition, pronounced increase in the post LCF hardness values substantiate the dynamic precipitation. 相似文献

The internal stress, σi, and the effective-stress exponent of the dislocation velocity,m*, have been determined during creep of Fe-3.5 at. pct Mo alloy at 1123 K under 10.8 to 39.2 MN/m2 and of Ni-10.3 at. pct W alloy at 1173 K under 19.6 to 88.2 MN/m2. Both alloys have been classified among class I alloys under a certain condition including the present one, because the applied-stress
exponent of the steady-state creep rates,n, is almost 3. Values of σi obtained by stress-transient dip test were small and almost independent of the applied stress, σc, in Fe-3.5 Mo alloy. On the other hand, in Ni-10.3 W alloy σi increased with increasing σc as in the case of many pure metals. The value ofm* obtained by analyzing stress-relaxation curves immediately after creep deformation was unity in Fe-3.5 Mo alloy, whereas
in Ni-10.3 W alloy it was about 2.5. These results indicate that the rate-controlling mechanisms in creep are different from
each other in these two alloys and that the classification according ton-value does not always coincide with the classification according to the rate-controlling mechanisms. It is concluded that
the fact thatn ≃ 3 is not a sufficient evidence supporting that creep is controlled by one of microcreep mechanisms. 相似文献
