Corrosion fatigue crack propagation tests were performed on commercial 7075 alloys. Testing was done in a 3.5 pct sodium chloride
solution under constant impressed potential and under reversed anodic-cathodic current conditions. Results indicated that
a cathodic potential of -1.400 V vs SCE was sufficient to reduce corrosion fatigue crack growth rates to the level observed
in dry argon. By alternately impressing anodic and cathodic currents, it was shown that anodic potentials enhance the crystallographic
dependence of the fracture mode, resulting in brittle striations, while cathodic potentials result in ductile striations formed
by shear. Modification of the alloy chemistry and lower impurity content resulted in a two-fold reduction in crack growth
rates. Thermomechanical treatment of these alloys to refine the grain size proved detrimental. Adding an inhibitor to the
sodium chloride solution was found to be the most effective means for reducing corrosion fatigue crack growth rates. A model
for the environment-surface interaction is suggested. 相似文献

The rate of fatigue crack propagation for Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn and Ti-6 A1-4V in aqueous environments has been measured as a function
of solution chemistry, frequency, and stress wave form. Depending on the specific encironment, three types of fatigue crack
growth rate behavior have been observed as a function of frequency. Crack growth rates increase with decreasing frequency
in distilled water, while addition of Na2SO4 produces frequency-independent behavior. In solutions containing chloride or bromide ions, a reversal in frequency-dependence
takes place at ΔKscc. Below this transition ΔK level, crack growth rates decrease with decreasing frequency due to passive film formation at the
crack tip. Above ΔKscc corrosion fatigue crack growth is due to SCC under cyclic loading. The ΔK transition in fatigue is lower than the static
stress corrosion threshold because of repeated rupture of the passive film at the crack tip, approaching KIsco only for very slow cycling frequencies.

The dependence of fatigue crack growth rate on the cyclic stress intensity factor was determined for six iron-carbon alloys
ranging in carbon content from 0.23 to 1.08 wt pct carbon. Both ferrite/pearlite and ferrite/free iron carbide microstructures
were studied. Scanning electron microscope fractography studies correlated the fatigue mechanism with microstructure. It was
found that when the predominant mode of crack growth was ductile, the crack growth rateda/dN could be related to the cyclic stress intensity factor ΔK by an equation of the formda/dN = (ΔK)m where andm are constants. The constantm was approximately equal to four when the crack growth mechanism presumably was the blunting and resharpening of the crack
tip by slip processes. The constantm was greater than four when the crack growth mechanism was void coalescence in the interlamella ferrite of pearlite colonies.
The preferred fatigue crack path through the pearlitic alloys was through the free ferrite phase.

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 investigations have been conducted by measuring fatigue crack propagation near fatigue threshold in various structural steels differing in chemical composition and strength level. The fatigue crack propagation measurements were carried out using the constant-load-amplitude test in Paris-region, R-constant and Kmax-constant method in near fatigue threshold region. Scanning electron microscopy at fatigue crack front on fracture surface was applied to interpret the influence of crack closure effects on the measured fatigue threshold. Marked fretting oxide deposits distributed on the fracture surface at threshold level were observed in a low load ratio resulting from the combined action of plasticity- and oxide-induced crack closure under laboratory atmosphere. Fatigue threshold dependent on the load ratio appeared to be related to the extent of the crack closure effect. By considering the relationship of reversed plastic zone size and grain size the fatigue threshold in region of crack closure was calculated theoretically. The result has shown a good agreement with the experimentally measured values. 相似文献

Near-threshold fatigue crack growth was studied in 8090-T8771 Al-Li alloy tested in moist laboratory air. The testing was
conducted using (1) the ASTM E-647 load-shedding procedure, (2) a power-law load-shedding procedure, and (3) a constant-amplitude
(CA) loading procedure. Crack closure in the three procedures was analyzed. In reconciling fatigue crack growth rates (FCGRs)

slip-rupture model is proposed to describe the mechanism of near-threshold fatigue crack growth in this alloy. The model explains
the mode transition from crystallographic slip band cracking (SBC) to subgrain boundary cracking (SGC)/brittle fracture (BF)
in terms of a microstructure-environment synergy. The transition is related to the material’s short-transverse grain size. 相似文献

Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) on smooth hour glass specimens and Fatigue Crack Propagation (FCP) studies on Single Edge Notch (SEN)
specimens were carried out at room temperature on four Cu-Al polycrystalline alloys to investigate the effects of Stacking
Fault Energy (SFE) and mechanical property variations on fatigue characteristics. Significant improvements in fatigue properties
were observed for alloys of low SFE. A microhardness technique was used to delineate the fatigue plastic zone ahead of stopped
cracks at several stress intensity ranges for all the alloys. Planar slip was associated with a less than a second power dependence
of plastic zone size on the stress intensity range. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) was used to observe the substructures
that developed both in LCF at different strain ranges and also ahead of fatigue cracks at different stress intensity ranges.
Fractography was carried out to study the micromechanisms of crack propagation using a two stage replication technique. The
experimental results were in good agreement with a theoretical model for FCP developed previously by the authors which incorporates
mechanical and microstructural variables.

Environmental fatigue crack propagation in 2024-T3, 7075-T6, and 7178-T6 has been studied at low levels of cyclic amplitude
of stress intensity, ΔK. Both wedge force loading and remote loading techniques were employed to achieve the desired ΔK levels,
and preliminary experiments were designed to test their compatibility. Testing was carried out in humid air, distilled water,
and 3.5 pct sodium chloride solution, and the observed crack growth rates compared with those in desiccated air. Later studies
were also conducted in an inert reference environment with a total water content of less than 2 ppm. When the data are plotted
as log ΔK vs log d2a /dN, alloy 2024-T3 exhibits a marked slope transition, alloy 7075-T6 a slight slope transition, and alloy 7178-T6 a rectilinear
behavior throughout the whole range of ΔK studied. The basic shape of these curves is discussed in terms of state-of-stress
conditions at the crack tip, frequency effects, environmental effects, strain rate sensitivity, and metallurgical structure.
An attempt is also made to correlate the rate of fatigue crack propagation in a particular environment and at a particular
ΔK level with the fracture topography. 相似文献

The influence of hydrogen environment (448 kPa) on near-threshold fatigue crack propagation rates was examined in a 779 MPa
yield strength NiCrMoV steel at 93 °C. An automatically decreasing and increasing stress intensity technique was employed
to generate crack growth rates at three load ratios(R = 0.1, 0.5, and 0.8). Results show that the crack propagation rates in hydrogen are slower than those in air for levels of
stress intensity range, ΔK, below about 12 MPa√m. The crack closure concept does not explain the slower crack growth rates
in hydrogen than in air. Near-threshold growth rates appear to be controlled by the levels of residual moisture in the environments.
In argon and air, the fracture morphology is transgranular, while in H2 the amount of intergranularity varies with ΔK and achieves a maximum when the cyclic plastic zone is approximately equal
to the prior austenite grain size. 相似文献

Crack propagation studies, with compact tension specimens, have been carried out on a series of equiaxed α-β Ti-Mn alloys,
containing 0.4, 2.0, 5.6, 8.0, and 10.0 pct Mn, with volume fraction of β, varying from 0.019 to 0.759 for bothLT andTL directions. Textures of both phases were determined and interior plastic zone sizes were measured from the extent, in β,
of deformation bands which emanated from the fracture surface. Relative crack propagation rates were rationalized on the basis
of the slip systems which had the highest total resolved shear stress and the orientation of these slip systems with respect
to the nominal crack propagation direction. The yield strength of the alloys increased considerably as the volume fraction
of β increased, because the yield strength of α is one-third that of β.7 When Δa/ΔN was plotted against ΔK/YS, the data separated out according to yield stress, and Δa/ΔN for Stages II and III was highest for the 10.0 Mn alloy. Threshold
ΔK values were also found to increase with the volume fraction of β and were considered to be determined primarily by slip in
α. In Stage II a plot of log Δa/ΔN varied linearly with log √rp, whererp is the size of the reversed plastic zone. The deformation bands which definerp were found at considerably lower values of ΔK than were the striations. It was proposed that this was due to the need for a sufficiently large plastic zone which would
generate sufficient unloading back stress to cause the necessary back flow to produce striations. This back flow was considered
to be influenced by Bauschinger behavior. An equation has been proposed to relate the constantC in the theoretical equation forrp to volume fraction of α, equiaxed a particle size, and the average Bauschinger strain.

Fatigue crack growth rates of a 7075 type aluminum alloy were measured as a function of environment, frequency, stress wave
form, alloy chemistry, and thermomechanical treatment. At low ΔK values (belowK
ISCC
), the crack growth rates in a 3.5 pct sodium chloride solution were ten times greater than those in a reference argon environment.
Comparison of the effects of a square wave, a negative-sawtooth wave, and a positivesawtooth wave at different frequencies
indicates that the synergistic interaction with the environment occurs during the loading part of each cycle. Overaging the
alloy and limiting the alloy impurity content results in a reduced corrosion fatigue crack growth rate, but a thermomechanical
treatment leading to a grain size refinement increases it. 相似文献

The effects of overload on the fatigue crack propagation behavior of two Ti-V alloys having different deformation mechanisms
were studied. The results are explained in terms of residual stress effects associated with the overload and the removal of
these stresses during post-overload cycling. An additional effect occurs during multiple cycle overload when the deformation
structure representative of the strain amplitude is believed to form in the overload reverse plastic zone. This structure
must be rearranged during cycling at ΔK

before the baseline FCGR is reached and the process is responsible for part of the delay period.

The influence of various gasenous environments on fatigue crack propagation has been determined for three quenched and tempered
steels with yield strength levels of 800 to 1400 MN/m2. The crack growth rate was increased by an order of magnitude in low pressure (13 KPa) hydrogen, and by a factor of two in
most mildly aggressive environments relative to the growth rate in vacuum. The gases oxygen, acetylene, carbon monoxide, and
nitrous oxide were dominant in a combined environment with hydrogen while methane and carbon dioxide had only a small effect
on crack propagation when added to hydrogen. The crack propagation in acetylene was intermediate between that in hydrogen
and the mildly aggressive environments. The increase in fatigue crack propagation rate in the hydrogen environment was dependent
on the temperature and the cyclic stress intensity. The fracture mode was transgranular for all conditions except the hydrogen
influenced HP-9-4-20 fractures. These results are discussed relative to various stages of the hydrogen embrittlement mechanisms.
In pacticular, the results are discussed with respect to the adsorption-dissociation of the environment, transport of the
gaseous specie within the plasticly deformed zone by mobile dislocations and interaction with segregated impurities within
the metal.
