2024铝合金喷丸试件疲劳寿命试验及仿真研究

现有的喷丸材料疲劳性能研究扩展有限元模型没有考虑残余应力对裂纹扩展的影响。对2024铝合金的喷丸与未喷丸试样进行三弯疲劳试验,以明确喷丸工艺对试件疲劳寿命的强化作用。通过ABAQUS建立试件的二维平面应力模型,导入残余应力并利用扩展有限元法模拟循环载荷下裂纹的萌生与扩展,对比试验结果来验证该扩展有限元数值模型的正确性。最后基于该数值模型,改变载荷工况,研究不同载荷工况下残余应力对疲劳寿命的影响,得到喷丸残余应力强化作用与载荷工况的关系。结果表明:喷丸引入的残余应力可以有效地增强试件的疲劳寿命;过大的循环载荷可能造成喷丸残余应力发生松弛;在最大载荷不变的前提下,应力比越小,试件疲劳寿命越短;应力比越大,残余应力对疲劳寿命强化效果越明显。     

喷丸处理对6151-T6铝合金旋转弯曲疲劳性能的影响

对经过电解抛光、喷丸处理和喷丸处理再抛光的三种6151-T6铝合金试样的表面粗糙度及喷丸处理后试样表面硬化层的硬度进行测试。对三种表面状态不同的铝合金材料进行旋转弯曲疲劳实验。研究喷丸处理试样表面残余应力随疲劳实验的变化情况,以及喷丸处理对该铝合金疲劳性能的影响。结果表明:喷丸处理对材料疲劳性能的影响与加载的压应力水平有关。当加载的压应力与表面残余压应力之和不超过材料表面硬化层的循环屈服强度时,硬化层中的残余压应力在疲劳过程中不发生应力松弛,疲劳寿命得到大幅度提高;反之,将发生应力松弛现象,疲劳寿命的提高程度受残余压应力松弛程度的影响。此外,喷丸处理造成的材料表面粗糙度的增加,在全应力幅范围,使材料的疲劳寿命略有降低。

关于残余应力的静载松弛与最佳喷丸残余应力场的研究

本文研究了喷丸残余应力场在疲劳加载初期的静载松弛现象及机理,并对最佳喷丸残余应力场进行了探讨。试验结界表明,残余应力在疲劳过程中的静载松弛是工件表层材料剧烈塑性变形的结果。残余应力的静载松弛会使晶界、相界等障碍物处形成一定数量的微裂纹,给工作表层材料带来损伤,降低疲劳裂纹的形核寿命。为了避免疲劳初期由于残余应力的静载松弛所造成的损伤,在喷丸后采用应力松弛低温回火工艺,预先降低残余应力场中的最大残余压应力值,建立最佳残余应力场。这种通过热激活的方式使残余应力发生的松弛属子非损伤性松弛,因而能够有效地提高材料在S—N曲线上的较高交变应力区的疲劳寿命。

Surface Integrity and Fatigue Behavior for High-Speed Milling Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al Titanium Alloy

Influence of cutting parameters on surface integrity when milling Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al is investigated based on high-speed cutting experiments. Surface integrity measurements, fatigue fractography analysis, and fatigue life tests are conducted to reveal the effect of surface integrity on crack initiation and fatigue life. The results show that under given experiment conditions, surface roughness decreases linearly when increasing cutting speed or decreasing feed per tooth. The latter has a greater impact on surface roughness than the former. Compressive stress can be detected on all machined surfaces. With the increase of feed per tooth or cutting speed, respectively, residual stress presents a linear increase. Cutting parameters have no significant impact on micro-hardness. When the surface roughness ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 μm, the effect of surface residual stress on fatigue life is more than that of surface roughness. When the surface residual compressive stress increases, the fatigue life improves significantly. Compared with 60 m/min, when cutting speed is 100 or 140 m/min, the surface roughness decreases, the surface residual compressive stress increases, and the fatigue life improves by 124 and 59%, respectively. Under a tensile load, fatigue crack on machined surface of Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al titanium alloy originates at the cross-edge of the specimen surface. With the increase of surface roughness, the area ratio of fatigue crack propagation zone, and fatigue fracture zone decreases.     

Effects of mechanical surface treatments on fatigue performance of extruded ZK60 alloy

The effects of shot peening (SP) and ball‐burnishing (BB) as mechanical surface treatments on the high cycle fatigue (HCF) performance of the extruded high‐strength magnesium alloy ZK60 were investigated. Various Almen intensities (0–0.33 mmA) and burnishing pressures (0–100 bar) were applied to reach optimum HCF performance of SP and BB conditions, respectively. SP and BB not only result in marked changes in the near surface microstructures but also in pronounced strengthening and in generation of residual compressive stresses in the near‐surface regions. Both SP and BB lead to significant improvements in the fatigue life of the electropolished reference (EP) provided that suitable process parameters were applied. Utilizing optimum process parameters, the 10⁷ cycles fatigue strength increased from 150 MPa (EP) over 175 MPa (SP) to 200 MPa (BB).

Fretting fatigue behavior of shot-peened Ti–6Al–4V under seawater environment

The fretting fatigue behavior of the shot-peened titanium alloy, Ti–6Al–4V, was investigated under a seawater environment using a servo-hydraulic fatigue test machine equipped with a rigid fretting fixture. Fretting fatigue tests were performed over a wide range of stress levels to characterize the effects of seawater at high and low cycle fatigue regimes. The results of this study showed that (1) seawater reduces the fretting fatigue life of shot-peened Ti–6Al–4V in both high and low cycle fatigue regimes relative to their counterparts in ambient laboratory condition, and (2) shot-peening increases the fretting fatigue life of Ti–6Al–4V when tested under dry or seawater condition relative to its counterpart of unpeened Ti–6Al–4V. The seawater environment promotes an increase in crack propagation rate; however the crack initiation depends upon the combination of the detrimental effect from seawater environment and the beneficial effect from the residual compressive stress from shot-peening. In the present study, it appears that their cumulative effects were dominated by the residual compressive stress in both low cycle and high cycle fatigue regimes. On the other hand, the seawater environment has detrimental effect on the fretting fatigue life of unpeened Ti–6Al–4V than that in ambient laboratory condition in the low cycle fatigue regime while it improves slightly the life in the high cycle fatigue regime.     

Influence of mechanical surface treatments on fatigue strength of commercial purity titanium

A comparative study of two mechanical surface treatments of shot peening (SP) and cold rolling (CR) on fatigue strength of commercial purity titanium has been conducted. The treated surface was characterized by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and surface roughness measurements. Experimental result shows that SP and CR increased the fatigue strength of commercial purity titanium, and moreover, the following results were obtained: (1) The improvement of fatigue strength is related to the formation of deformation twins in strengthened layer. Before or after fatigue, the samples strengthened by SP or CR not only have twin shape and number change, but also have twin interactions in the SP and twin-grain boundary interactions in the CR. (2) XRD measurement demonstrated that SP leads to surface compressive residual stress are much higher than those after CR. Surface compressive residual stress has higher relaxation in the SP than in the CR condition during cyclic loading, then the surface compressive residual stress has the same values after fatigue deformation. (3) Surface roughness resulting from SP is ten times of CR.     

The effect of stress transients on the HCF endurance limit

Constant amplitude fatigue of a material at a fixed stress ratio, R, and at some limiting stress level, may produce high cycle fatigue (HCF) lives in excess of some large number, typically 10⁷ or higher, which can be treated as an endurance limit. Under vibratory loading, stress transients can exceed this endurance limit amplitude and cause damage that accumulates with repeated transient loading. These HCF transients normally occur at lower stress amplitudes than those needed to cause low cycle fatigue (LCF) where lives, N, are typically in the range N < 10⁴–10⁵. Therefore, the HCF transient stresses produce cycles to failure beyond the normal LCF regime but correspond to amplitudes that are above the fatigue limit stress. In this investigation, a titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, is subjected to HCF stress transients while being cycled under constant amplitude HCF. The HCF transients correspond to blocks of loading above the fatigue limit stress applied for a specified fraction of their expected life. A step-loading procedure is used to determine the fatigue limit stress at a frequency of 420 Hz. Stress transients applied at stresses up to 40% above the endurance limit for cycle counts up to 25% of expected life are found to have little or no effect on the fatigue limit stress. Simple calculations of the propagation life in a test specimen show that most of the life at these transient stress levels is spent in the nucleation phase. Fractography, aided by heat tinting, was unable to detect any prior cracks due to the HCF stress transients on the fractured specimens.
