A mechanism for creep crack growth is proposed by which the crack grows by formation of grain boundary cavities ahead of the
crack tip. Two cases are considered; firstly, when cavity growth is diffusion controlled and secondly, where growth is deformation
controlled. The resultant crack growth rates predicted by these theoretical models are compared with experimental data. 相似文献

Fatigue crack growth along an Al/epoxy interface was examined under different combinations of mode-I and mode-II loadings
using the flexural peel technique. Fatigue crack growth rates were obtained as a function of the total strain energy rate
for GII/GI ratios of 0.3 to 1.4, achieved by varying the relative thickness of the outerlayers for the flexural peel specimen. Fatigue
crack growth resistance of the interface was found to increase with increasing GII/GI ratio. Such a shear-enhanced crack growth resistance of the interface resulted in a gradual transition of crack growth mechanism
from interfacial at the low GII/GI ratio to cohesive at the high GII/GI ratio. Under predominantly mode-I loading, the damage in the polymer took the form of crazing and cavitation. In contrast,
laminar shear occurred under highly shear loading, resulting in a larger amount of plastic dissipation at the crack tip and
improved fatigue crack growth resistance. 相似文献

A theory of intergranular creep crack growth in brittle materials has been developed. The mechanism of crack propagation is removal of atoms from the crack tip by stress induced grain boundary diffusion and their deposition at the grain boundary. The width of the crack is assumed to be constant during crack propagation. Any possible plastic deformation at the crack tip has been neglected. The stress relaxation ahead of the crack tip which arises due to the non-uniform deposition of material onto the grain boundary is calculated and the diffusion process governed by this relaxed stress studied. Thus the theory is analogous to those developed previously for the growth of r-type voids in grain boundaries. Both the steady state and the transient were considered. It was found that the rate of crack growth at any moment was determined by the nominal stress intensity factor K. A minimum stress intensity, Kmin' exists below which no crack growth can take place. Conversely there is a maximum limiting rate of crack growth determined by the maximum surface diffusion rate. For K > Kmin the steady state is always reached quickly and the length of the transient period ttr is proportional to K−6. For K > Kmin the rate of crack growth is proportional to K4. A comparison with experimental measurements on brittle ½Cr-½Mo-¼V steels show good agreement between the theory and experiment. 相似文献

Mixed rare earth elements were incorporated into alumina ceramic materials. Hot-pressing was used to fabricate alumina matrix composites with nitrogen atmosphere protection. Microstructures and mechanical properties of the composites were tested. It is indicates that the bending strength and fracture toughness of alumina matrix ceramic composites sintered at 1550℃ and 28 MPa for 30 min are improved evidently. Based on mixed rare earth elements acting as a toughening phase, AlTiC master alloys were also added in as sintering assistant, which could prompt the formation of transient liquid phase, and thus nitrides of rare earth elements were produced. All the above are beneficial to the improvement of mechanical properties of alumina matrix ceramic composites. 相似文献

The fatigue crack growth behavior of a Ti-6A1-4V composite with boron fibers was previously studied in the as-received and
thermally exposed conditions. Fracture strengths of the composite, fiber, and interface were characterized together with fatigue
crack growth rates and failure mechanisms. Utilizing the matrix and fiber properties as input, a recently proposed model was
exercised to elucidate the effects of interfacial strength on crack growth rates in the composite. Comparison of experimental
results with model calculations revealed that a weak fiber/matrix interface combined with a strong, high-modulus fiber led
to interface debonding and crack deflection and produced the beneficial effects of increased threshold and reduced transverse
crack growth rates.
This paper is based on a presentation made in the symposium “Interfaces and Surfaces of Titanium Materials” presented at the
1988 TMS/AIME fall meeting in Chicago, IL, September 25–29, 1988, under the auspices of the TMS Titanium Committee. 相似文献

A series of high-temperature fatigue crack growth experiments was conducted on a continuous-fiberreinforced SM1240/TIMETAL-21S
composite using three different temperatures, room temperature (24 °C), 500 °C, and 650 °C, and three loading frequencies,
10, 0.1, and 0.02 Hz. In all the tests, the cracking process concentrated along a single mode I crack for which the principal
damage mechanism was crack bridging and fiber/matrix debonding. The matrix transgranular fracture mode was not significantly
influenced by temperature or loading frequency. The fiber debonding length in the crack bridging region was estimated based
on the knowledge of the fiber pullout lengths measured along the fracture surfaces of the test specimens. The average pullout
length was correlated with both temperature and loading frequency. Furthermore, the increase in the temperature was found
to lead to a decrease in the crack growth rate. The mechanism responsible for this behavior is discussed in relation to the
interaction of a number of temperature-dependent factors acting along the bridged fiber/matrix debonded zone. These factors
include the frictional stress, the radial stress, and the debonding length of the fiber/matrix interface. In addition, the
crack growth speed was found to depend proportionally on the loading frequency. This relationship, particularly at low frequencies,
is interpreted in terms of the development of a crack tip closure induced by the relaxation of the compressive residual stresses
developed in the matrix phase in regions ahead of the crack tip during the time-dependent loading process. 相似文献

Two models based on elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and fiber bridging are developed to study the role of plastic yielding in metals and the interfacial strength of metal/ceramic laminates. There are two types of damage observed in metal/ceramic laminates: multiple cracking and macroscopic crack propagation. The former occurs around the macroscopic crack tip and thus distributes the damage and enhances the composite's toughness. The present models establish that there exists a critical metal/ceramic layer thickness ratio above which multiple cracking dominates and that this ratio decreases (hence increasing the possibility of multiple cracking) as the ratios of metal yield stress over ceramic strength, metal modulus over ceramic modulus, and metal/ceramic interfacial strength over ceramic strength increase. Good agreement between the present models and experimental results is observed for both damage modes, i.e. multiple cracking vs macroscopic crack propagation, and for critical stress intensity factors. The elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and fiber-bridging models predict that multiple cracking is ensured if the metal layer thickness is 2.5 times larger than the ceramic layer thickness, regardless of the metal/ceramic properties. 相似文献

The flexural peel technique was used to study the fracture resistance of two model A12O3/A1 interfaces. The bimaterial interface was formed by bonding high-purity A12O3 with molten Al-5 pct Cu alloy under pressure. The specimens were then heat treated so that the Al-Cu alloy reached peakaged
and extended-overaged conditions. The fracture resistance curve was established for two interfaces with either the peak-aged
or overaged Al alloy. The fracture resistance of the interface with the peak-aged Al-Cu alloy was higher in terms of both
the initiation and peak toughness. While the peak toughness of the interface scaled with the yield strength of the metal,
the initiation toughness differed by a factor of 8. The difference in the initiation toughness is discussed in terms of the
disparity in the interfacial microstructure. 相似文献

Fatigue crack growth rates in a [0/90]2s
Ti-6Al-4V/SCS-6 cross-ply laminate, correlated with push-out tests, have been measured to assess the effects of varying test
temperature, environment, load ratio (R), and initial stress intensity factor range (ΔK). The fatigue crack growth resistance is degraded in tests at 450 °C in air, but tests carried out at test temperatures of
up to 450 °C under vacuum, both at R=0.1 and R=0.5, have shown crack arrest/catastrophic failure transitions (CA/CF), which are similar to those observed for specimens
studied at room temperature and at 300 °C in air. Moreover, for such [0/90] composites, the critical role of intact 0 deg
fibers bridging in the crack wake, in promoting fatigue crack growth resistance, has been confirmed. Sudden increases of fatigue
crack growth rate can be attributed to individual fiber failure(s), which were detected by acoustic emission techniques. The
effect of the experimental conditions (environment, test temperature, and duration) on the mechanical behavior (fatigue crack
growth rate, push-out tests, and broken fibers pull-out lengths) of this laminate may be explained by the modification of
the interfacial zone (decrease in the carbon layer thickness due to oxidation and formation of TiO2). 相似文献

The effect has been investigated of prior damage on the creep crack propagation characteristics of 0.5 pct Cr, 0.5 pct Mo,
0.25 pct V steel at 823 K. On a macroscopic basis, the parametersK
1 andC
* both appear to correlate withda/dt although the parameterC
* is unable to distinguish between virgin and damaged specimens. Rupture lives in the predamaged specimens are reduced by up
to 60 pct when compared to virgin samples. Microscopically, it is found that the nature of the cavitation damage suggests
that surface and grain boundary diffusion processes may have a minimal part to play, crack growth being controlled by the
growth of cavities which is in turn controlled by the deformation of the surrounding matrix. A number of microscopic models
are compared with the experimental data and it is suggested that a model which gives the best correlation with results is
one proposed on the basis of matrix deformation.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of TiC/Ti-alloy composite was examined at 450 °C and compared to the room-temperature behavior.
Contrary to the temperature-dependent fatigue crack growth behavior of the monolithic alloy, fatigue crack growth resistance
of the composite was improved at the elevated temperature. At 450 °C, the fatigue threshold of the composite was found to
be 50 Pct higher than at room temperature. Such an improved fatigue crack growth resistance is shown to result from extensive
microcracking of reinforcing particles, which promotes fatigue crack closure at the elevated temperature. 相似文献

The Kmax-controlled near-threshold fatigue crack growth behavior was investigated on 422 stainless steel in a boiling NaCl solution.
During the test, there was a transition from corrosion fatigue to stress corrosion cracking. The transition occurred at very
high load ratios (R=-0.91) and at very lowAK levels (≤2.1 MPa√m). The characteristics of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) were manifested by time-based crack growth rather
than cycle-based crack growth, by crack extension under static loading, and by change in fracture mode. In corrosive environments,
the small ripple loading imposed on structural materials should be recognized for engineering designs and failure analyses. 相似文献

The nucleation and growth of flaws along grain boundaries and interfaces are known to cause significant reductions in elastic moduli and to play an important role in determining the deformation characteristics of ceramic materials at elevated temperatures. This paper presents an analysis of the creep behavior of deteriorating elastic solids where the principal mechanism of deformation is the growth of intergranular or interfacial flaws. The changes in elastic moduli induced by the growth of internal damage are used to derive the stress exponent in the power-law creep regime. When the flaws advance at a rate which is proportional to the local normal stress or normal strain, a power-law creep exponent of 2 is predicted for short time, steady-state creep for a population of aligned slit cracks and randomly oriented penny-shaped cracks. For long-time creep, the variation of nonsteady state creep strain rate as a function of the far-field stress and time is explicitly determined. General solutions for creep strain rates are also presented for situations where the microcrack growth rate has a power-law dependence on the local normal stress or stress intensity factor. The predicted dependence of creep strain rate on the far-field stress, the progression of damage and the consequent reduction in elastic moduli, overall creep ductility, and implications pertaining to microstructural and temperature effects on creep are found to be in accord with a wide variety of experimental observations for ceramics and ceramic composites. The temperature, stress and material conditions for which the proposed mechanism is applicable are discussed and a general theory of creep damage in progressively microfracturing elastic brittle solids is developed. 相似文献

The wetting of copper-silicon alloys of various compositions on vitreous carbon substrates at 1423 K was studied by the sessile
drop method. The morphology and chemistry of products of interfacial reactions between silicon and carbon were characterized
by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron probe microanalysis, and high-resolution optical profilometry. In addition
to measurements of contact angles and spreading kinetics in the reactive Cu-Si/Cv system, similar measurements were performed
for the nonreactive Cu-Si/SiC system. It was found that the reaction rate has no effect on the final contact angle, which
is nearly equal to the thermodynamic contact angle of the alloy on the reaction product. These findings appear to be valid
for a wide range of interfacial reaction rates and for different types of interfacial reactions. 相似文献

An analysis of the distribution of electrode potential within a stress corrosion crack which is growing by an anodic dissolution
process has been used to define the electrode potential at the tip of the crack. This potential is used to predict the kinetics
of crack growth. The influence of the applied stress intensity and the electrochemical properties of the crack tip and surface
on the growth rate have been considered for low alloy steels in concentrated hydroxide solution and aluminum alloys in acidic
chloride solution. Crack growth rates obtained in high concentration solutions are extrapolated to lower concentration solutions
which may be expected in service environments. Predicted crack growth rates are in good agreement with published data. 相似文献
