Effect of stress parameters on ratcheting deformation stages of polycrystalline OFHC copper

Engineering stress‐controlled ratcheting tests under different sets of stress amplitudes and mean stresses show that ratcheting deformation in polycrystalline OFHC copper occurs in three different stages. A plateau region with almost no accumulation of inelastic strain follows general ratcheting deformation during initial loading cycles. With breakdown of the plateau region inelastic ratcheting deformation occurs at an increasingly rapid rate. The effect of the stress amplitude on the ratcheting process is found to be more than mean stress effect. Reconstruction of the ratcheting curves clearly separates the conditions for stress‐controlled low cycle fatigue with zero mean stress and ratcheting with tensile mean stress.

基于线性匹配方法的核电站弯管在循环载荷下的安定性分析

进行了核电站90°弯管在内压和面内弯曲载荷作用下的棘轮效应试验,并采用数值方法研究了90°弯管的极限载荷、安定载荷和棘轮边界。利用理想弹塑性有限元分析,基于两倍弹性斜率准则和切线相交准则分别确定了90°弯管单独承受内压和弯曲载荷的极限载荷;利用线性匹配方法确定了90°弯管在单独内压和弯曲载荷以及两者共同作用下的极限载荷和安定载荷;利用Ohno-Wang模型,结合C-TDF弹塑性有限元分析方法和线性匹配方法分别确定了90°弯管的棘轮边界;最后,对弹塑性有限元方法和线性匹配法确定的棘轮边界进行了比较。结果表明：两倍弹性斜率准则、切线相交准则和线性匹配方法确定的极限载荷误差为10.78%,其中弹性迭代的线性匹配法能高效、快速地进行计算。比较C-TDF法和线性匹配法确定的棘轮边界,结果发现：当内压在20~35 MPa之间时,两种方法确定的棘轮边界吻合很好;当内压小于20 MPa时,两种方法的预测结果呈现不同的趋势。     

Tensile Behaviors and Ratcheting Effects of Partially Sintered Chip-Attachment Films of a Nanoscale Silver Paste

The mechanical behaviors of partially sintered thick films of a nanoscale silver paste used for attaching semiconductor chips are studied. The films, about 150 μm thick, were made by repeatedly stencil-printing the paste on a ceramic substrate and sintering by a recommended heating profile suitable for device attachment. The partially sintered films were lifted off the substrate, and their tensile behaviors, i.e., stress–strain curves, were measured at temperatures between −60°C and 300°C using a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). The elastic modulus and tensile strength of the sintered silver films decreased with increasing temperature. Ratcheting behaviors of the films under cyclic tension at 150°C were also tested by using the DMA by examining the effects of loading rate, mean stress, and stress amplitude. The ratcheting strain grew with increasing mean stress or stress amplitude and with decreasing loading rate.     

Uniaxial ratchetting and low-cycle fatigue failure behaviors of adhesively bonded butt-joints under cyclic tension deformation

Ratcheting and low-cycle fatigue failure behaviors of the adhesively bonded hollow cylindrical butt-joints has been experimentally investigated. A series of uniaxial cyclic tension experiments were carried out under stress-controlled mode. The effects of stress amplitude, mean stress and cycle time on the uniaxial ratcheting response, fatigue damage variable evolution and fatigue life of the adhesively bonded butt-joints were analyzed. The results show that the ratcheting strain, ratcheting strain rate and fatigue damage variable all increase with the increase of stress amplitude and mean stress. The shorter cycle time results in the increase of fatigue damage variable and the degradation of the stiffness of the adhesive material. It is also found that the increase of stress amplitude and mean stress can reduce the low-cycle fatigue life. Meanwhile, the fatigue life increases with the increase of cycle time for the adhesively bonded butt-joints.

Fatigue of beta titanium alloy at 20, 482 and 648 °C

Fatigue life of fibrous metal matrix composites is limited by the distribution of fibre strengths, the fibre‐matrix interfacial strength, and the fatigue resistance of the matrix. The aim of this work is to provide fatigue results for a beta titanium alloy over a range of temperatures and stresses that can be used as input for predicting fatigue life of a titanium matrix composite. Stress controlled tests having fatigue ratios between ?1 and ?0.2 were conducted on a limited number of samples machined from unreinforced laminated Ti‐15Mo‐3Al‐2.7Nb‐0.2Si (TIMETAL^®21S) sheets to represent as closely as possible the in situ matrix material. Stress control was used to enable quantification of strain ratcheting for tensile mean stresses and a fast loading rate was used to minimize time‐dependent (creep) deformation. Stress amplitude‐life data at 20, 482 and 648 °C for fully reversed loading are well fit by a power law. Normalizing the stress amplitude with respect to the power law coefficient appears to account for the temperature dependence of the S–N curves. As the tests had large strains and lives were in the low‐cycle fatigue range, strain range at the half‐life was also correlated to life. For tensile mean stress cycling at 482 and 648 °C, the rate of strain ratcheting per cycle increased to failure; shakedown was not observed.
