Nanoscale fatigue damage simulations using molecular dynamics were performed in nickel and copper single crystals. Cyclic stress–strain curves and fatigue crack growth were investigated using a middle-tension (MT) specimen with the lateral sides allowing periodic boundary conditions to simulate a small region of material as a part of a larger component. The specimen dimensions were in the range of nanometers, and the fatigue loading was strain controlled under constant and variable amplitude. Four crystal orientations, [111], [100], [110] and [101] were analyzed, and the results indicated that the plastic deformation and fatigue crack growth rates vary widely from one orientation to another. Under increasing strain amplitude loading, nickel nanocrystals experienced a large amount of plastic deformation causing at least in one orientation, [101], out-of-plane crack deviation in a mixed mode I+ II growth. Under constant amplitude loading, the fatigue cracks were a planar mode I type. Double slip is observed for some orientations, while for others, many more slip systems were activated causing a more evenly distributed plastic region around the crack tip. A comparative analysis revealed that small cracks grow more rapidly in copper than in nickel single crystals. 相似文献

Based on high-resolution digital images of High Performance Concrete (HPC) microstructures, a two-dimensional mesoscopic lattice model which accounts for fatigue damage is proposed. Fatigue damage is introduced by considering the coupled effects of loading cycles and tensile strain on stiffness degradation of microstructural lattice elements under fatigue loading. The ultimate tensile strain is defined as the failure threshold value for microstructural lattice elements. Further, the effects of the lattice element properties (i.e. size and finite element type) and fatigue loading parameters (i.e. stress levels) on the damage mechanisms of the HPC microstructure are investigated and discussed. It is found that lattice truss elements 1 mm long are satisfactory, giving also their smaller computational requirements in comparison to beam counterparts, to investigate fatigue damage in the HPC microstructure. The numerical results of the present model are consistent with experimental observations. 相似文献

This paper investigated the effect of surface recrystallization (RX) on the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour of a single crystal (SX) superalloy. LCF tests on both raw and recrystallized samples showed that fatigue life was significantly reduced by surface RX. Fractography indicated that fatigue cracks initiated from the casting defects in RX layer and multiple crack initiations were commonly observed. Moreover, RX grains exhibited predominantly transgranular cracking, in contrast to the intergranular fracture reported in literature. The fatigue crack propagation behaviour was discussed in light of fracture mechanics and crack growth life model. The fatigue cycles required to penetrate RX layer were estimated to be about one magnitude lower than that in forming an equivalent crack in SX specimens. It is suggested that the earlier crack initiation and promoted crack propagation in RX layer, as well as the trend of multiple initiations, are responsible for the fatigue degradation by RX. 相似文献

Extension of the Tanaka-Mura model for fatigue crack initiation in thermally cut martensitic steels 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A multi scale numerical approach for evaluation of crack initiation and propagation in thermally cut structural elements made of martensitic steel is presented. A numerical simulation of micro-crack initiation is based on the Tanaka-Mura micro-crack nucleation model, where individual grains of synthetic microstructure are simulated using the Voronoi tessellation. Three improvements are added to this model (multiple slip bands, micro-crack coalescence and segmented micro-crack generation). Crack propagation is then solved on a macro scale model using linear elastic fracture mechanics approach. Some experimental tests have also been performed to check the accuracy of the numerical model. The results of the proposed computational model show a reasonable correlation with the experimental results. 相似文献

Results of the study of the early fatigue damage in a number of model and structural crystalline materials using modern experimental techniques are presented. The dislocation structure of the persistent slip bands and the evolution of the surface relief resulting in the formation of persistent slip markings during cyclic loading are documented. The dislocation mechanisms leading to production of point defects in cyclic loading are described and point defect production and annihilation rates are derived. The kinetics of point defect migration is characterized. The physically based models of the surface relief formation describing the formation of extrusions and intrusions are presented. The models are confronted with experimental evidence. It is concluded that intrusions representing sharp surface crack-like defects play the principal role in the initiation of fatigue cracks. 相似文献

This paper is focused on the effect of sea water corrosion on the gigacycle fatigue strength of a martensitic–bainitic hot rolled steel R5 used for manufacturing off-shore mooring chains for petroleum platforms in the North Sea. Crack initiation fatigue tests in the regime of 106 to 1010 cycles were carried out on smooth specimens under three different environment conditions: (i) without any corrosion (virgin state) in air, (ii) in air after pre-corrosion, and (iii) in-situ corrosion-fatigue under artificial sea water flow. A drastic effect of sea water corrosion was found: the median fatigue strength beyond 108 cycles is divided by 5 compared to virgin state specimens. The crack initiation sites were corrosion pits caused by pre-corrosion or created during corrosion-fatigue under sea water flow. Furthermore some sub-surface and internal crack initiations were observed on specimens without any corrosion (virgin state). Crack propagation curves were obtained in mode I in air and under sea water flow. Calculation of the stress intensity factor at the tip of cracks emanating from hemispherical surface pits combined with the Paris–Hertzberg–Mc Clintock crack growth rate model showed that fatigue crack initiation period represents most of the fatigue life in the VHCF regime. Additional original experiments have shown physical evidences that the fatigue strength in the gigacycle regime under sea water flow is mainly governed by the corrosion process with a strong coupling between cyclic loading and corrosion. 相似文献

Simulation of crack growth under low cycle fatigue at high temperature in a single crystal superalloy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Crack growth tests have been performed at 950 °C with Single Edge Notch specimens of the Ni-based single crystal superalloy PWA1483. In particular, several orientations and frequencies have been investigated, thus allowing the assessment of the influence of these parameters on the crack growth rate. In addition, oxidation experiments have been carried out to characterize the kinetics of the outer oxide scale growth at the same temperature.On the other side, crack growth has been simulated with the Finite Element program ABAQUS in real test conditions by the node release technique. The nodes are released according to the measured crack growth rate.The simulation results are compared with the test results on the basis of the computed Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD). For this purpose, the crack is propagated until a stabilized value of the CTOD is obtained. This is usually the case when the crack has crossed the initial plastic zone. The procedure provides an evaluation of the effects of cycle frequency, crystal orientation, plasticity and oxide induced crack closure. 相似文献

Very high cycle fatigue carried out on pure copper polycrystals promotes early slip markings, labelled as slip markings of types II and III, localized close to grain or twin boundaries. In this work, we focus on whether Schmid criterion can predict the preferential sites of slip markings of types II and III and identify the active slip systems. Combining observations of slip markings and polycrystalline modeling, it is shown that considering pure cubic elastic behavior, maximum resolved shear stress as a criterion for type II slip markings preferential sites is 70% reliable criterion. Concerning slip markings of type III, the reliability falls to 30%. The role of cross slip is highlighted and a scenario rationalizing the stress amplitude conditions and sites to observe early slip markings of type II or III for copper polycrystals is proposed. 相似文献

In order to develop more accurate life prediction tools, an improved understanding of the variability within the fatigue behavior of a material is required. Recent work has shown multiple failure mechanisms that drive the variability in fatigue life of polycrystalline titanium and nickel materials. In addition, the bimodal behavior in the fatigue response is not readily apparent when only a very small number of specimens are tested at each loading condition, as is normal practice.The objective of this work was to investigate the fatigue variability of a single crystal nickel-base superalloy at elevated temperature. PWA1484, a second generation single crystal alloy developed for advanced turbine airfoil applications, was the material of choice for this investigation. A large number of fatigue tests were performed at one condition (stress level, stress ratio, frequency and temperature) to determine the variability and identify the sources of uncertainty in life. Scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the relationship between failure mechanisms and variability. Crack growth analyses were used to predict lowest life estimates and were compared to experimental data. The results show large variability in fatigue life at fairly high stresses. Evaluation of the fracture surfaces indicated that microstructural features such as carbides and eutectics were responsible for the failures. In addition, the size of the feature responsible for fatigue failure could not be directly related to the fatigue life. The lowest expected life based on fatigue crack growth analyses did agree with the shortest life found experimentally. However, more testing and analysis is required. 相似文献

This paper deals with the fatigue of the through-the-thickness crack propagation in thin notched composite laminates made of two glass woven plies. It highlights the different crack growths between warp and weft directions of the woven ply. Experimental results show a decrease of the crack growth rate per cycle with the increase of the crack initiation time. Moreover, it has been shown that it is necessary to take into account the fatigue damage of the woven plies in term of loss of rigidity in the initiation phase. The fatigue crack growth rates are then quantified using Paris law type equations and linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). 相似文献

Fatigue behaviour and lifing of two single crystal superalloys 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

A model has been developed to predict the high temperature cyclic life of single crystal superalloys RR2000 and CMSX-4 under conditions of creep and fatigue. A combined creep–fatigue model is used, although it is found that failure always occurs by creep or fatigue separately, and that creep–fatigue interaction has a minor influence. Microstructural investigation of a series of interrupted high- and low-frequency tests are presented, these are combined with the results of a series of interrupted creep tests to identify the separate and interactive mechanisms of creep and fatigue. When creep damage is present the material behaves homogeneously. Under these conditions crack growth is initiation controlled, the mechanism of failure is surface or casting pore-initiated planar crack growth followed by shear on crystallographic planes. As the temperature is lowered or the cyclic frequency increased, the material behaves less homogeneously and shear bands are formed during cycling. Crack growth under these conditions is again initiation controlled and failure is by rapid crystallographic crack growth along shear bands. Such a failure is a distinct fatigue failure and occurs when little creep damage is present. Under certain cyclic conditions, mainly those where the crystallographic failure mechanism is dominant, the material shows an anomalous increase in fatigue resistance with temperature up to approximately 950 °C. This behaviour has been quantified by relating it to the effect of strain rate and temperature on the yield strength of the material. 相似文献

This paper presents experimental and numerical study of the fatigue crack growth of hollowed pre-notched plates with multiple site damages (MSD). The numerical analyses were performed using finite element method. Experiments were carried out to validate the numerical results. Fatigue tests of aluminum sheets with MSD cracks were conducted to evaluate the effects of some parameters such as the thickness, hole diameter and central distance of the holes. The results show that the distance of the holes has greatest and size of the hole has little effects on the fatigue lives. Nucleation of cracks strongly depends on the thickness, distance and hole size. 相似文献

Hot‐work tool steel H11 is extensively applied in extrusion industries as extrusion tools. The understanding of its mechanical properties and damage evolution as well as failure is crucial for its implementation. In this paper, a finite element (FE) model employing Chaboche unified constitutive model and ductile damage rule is proposed to simulate the mechanical responses of H11 subjected to low‐cycle fatigue (LCF). Accumulated inelastic hysteresis energy is adopted to demonstrate the impact on damage initiation and evolution rules. A series of tension and LCF experiments were conducted to investigate H11's mechanical properties and its deterioration processes. In addition, to deeply understand the deformation and damage mechanism, scanning electron microscope (SEM) investigations were performed on the fracture section of gauge‐length part of the specimen after failure. Furthermore, the parameters in both constitutive model and damage rule are identified based on experimental data. The comparison of the hysteresis loop of the first cycle and stable cycle with different strain amplitudes demonstrates that the Chaboche constitutive model provides high precision to predict the evolution of mechanical properties. Based on the reliable achieved constitutive model, LCF behaviour prediction with damage rule was executed successfully using FE model and gains a good agreement with the experiments. It is believed that the proposed FE method lays the foundation of structure analysis and rapid design optimization in further applications. 相似文献

This study attempts to predict the high cycle fatigue life of steel butt welds by numerical method. At first, FE simulation of plate butt welding is carried out to obtain the weld-induced residual stresses employing sequentially coupled three-dimensional (3-D) thermo-mechanical FE formulation. Then, a nonlinear damage cumulative model for multiaxial high cycle fatigue based on continuum damage mechanics (CDM), which can incorporate the effect of welding residual stresses, is derived using FE technique. The high cycle fatigue damage model is applied to the butt welds subjected to cyclic fatigue loading to calculate the fatigue life considering the residual stresses, and the computed total fatigue life which takes into account the fatigue crack initiation and the propagation is compared with the test result. In addition, the fatigue life prediction of the welds without considering the residual stresses is implemented to investigate the influence of welding residual stresses on the fatigue performance. The FE results show that the high cycle fatigue damage model proposed in this work can predict the fatigue life of steel butt welds with high accuracy, and welding residual stresses should be taken into account in assessing the fatigue life of the welds. 相似文献

High-cycle fatigue properties of cold-drawn twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) steel, a favored candidate for replacing fully pearlitic (FP) steels in wire applications, were investigated. The high-cycle fatigue tests were conducted on cold-drawn TWIP and FP steels that had comparable ultimate tensile strength for comparison. Fatigue strength of both TWIP and FP steels increased with the tensile strength, but the TWIP steel cold-drawn to a tensile strength of 1.5 GPa exhibited a very low fatigue ratio (a ratio of fatigue strength to tensile strength) which deviated far from the predicted linear relationship. Fracture surface analysis showed that crack initiation mainly occurred at the ferrite matrix in FP steels, while either at grain or twin boundaries in TWIP steels where a large density of dislocations piled up during cold drawing. In the case of TWIP steels, the presence of inclusions at grain boundaries led to high local stress concentration and caused early intergranular fatigue cracking as notch sensitivity increased with tensile strength. Subsequent annealing after cold-drawing effectively increased fatigue strength of TWIP steels. It was suggested that TWIP steel revealing both high tensile strength and excellent high cycle fatigue strength could be a promising alternative for replacing conventional FP steels. 相似文献

Focusing on the geometry of one hot spot in airframes, this paper discusses the onset of the interaction of two collinear
cracks at adjacent holes and defines the onset as a criterion for multi-site fatigue damage failure. The finite element method
is used to calculate the stress intensity factors at the tips of two collinear cracks at adjacent holes growing towards each
other. The stress intensity factor is found to increase rapidly at the onset of interaction. Since a rapid increase in stress
intensity factor results in a rapid and unstable growth of the crack, the onset of the interaction is proposed as the point
where the multi-site fatigue damage starts. A criterion to avoid multi-site fatigue damage locally is then established based
on the separation distance of two crack tips at the onset of the interaction. To speed up the simulation of crack growth under
multi-site fatigue damage with the finite element method, a semi-empirical criterion is derived to determine the time at which
the stress intensity factors at the tips of the cracks correlate. The numerical examples show that the proposed criterion
saves simulation time while incurring negligible relative error in the computation of the final crack length. 相似文献

The fatigue life of SUH660 steel is dominated by crack initiation in the region of very high cycle fatigue owing to the new crack initiation behavior near the tip of temporarily arrested crack. The effect of internal hydrogen on very high cycle fatigue life is investigated focused on crack initiation life via fatigue and Vickers hardness tests. Hydrogen inhibits cracks initiation, and accelerates the increase in crack initiation lives with decreasing stress in low and medium hardness zones. Hydrogen increases the hardness in low and medium hardness zones. Hydrogen extends new crack initiation lives and causes longer very high cycle fatigue life. 相似文献

Inconel 718 is a frequently used material for gas turbine applications at temperatures up to 650 °C. The main load cycle for such components is typically defined by the start-up and shut-down of the engine. It generally includes hold times at high temperatures, which have been found to have a potential for greatly increasing the fatigue crack growth rate with respect to the number of load cycles. However, these effects may be totally or partly cancelled by other load features, such as overloads or blocks of continuous cyclic loading, and the actual crack propagation rate will therefore depend on the totality of features encompassed by the load cycle. It has previously been shown that the increased crack growth rate found in hold time experiments can be associated with a damage evolution, where the latter is not only responsible for the rapid intergranular crack propagation during the actual hold times, but also for the increased crack growth during the load reversals. In this paper, modelling of the hold time fatigue crack growth behaviour of Inconel 718 has been carried out, using the concept of a damaged zone as the basis for the treatment. With this conceptually simple and partly novel approach, it is shown that good agreement with experimental results can be found. 相似文献
