Abstract: | The compliance ratio method is an analytical approach for instantaneous crack length determination in dynamic single-specimen J-R curve testing of ferritic ductile cast iron (DCI). Comparison testing at room temperature and −40 °C was applied to PCVN and SE(B)15 specimens to examine their performance and suitability for the dynamic key curve method for DCI. An experimental reference database of dynamic crack resistance curves was set up by low-blow multiple-specimen tests and used to validate the results of the CR method. The influence of test temperature, microstructure, loading rate and specimen geometry on fracture behavior of the tested DCI was investigated in great detail and these parameters were linked to fracture mechanical properties. The results obtained show that the CR method is suited to establish valid dynamic crack resistance curves for both types of specimen. Nevertheless, SE(B)15 specimens are preferred for dynamic J-R curve determination of DCI based on their advantages such as higher accuracy. |
