ABSTRACTFully reversed strain-controlled, tension-compression tests were performed at room temperature to study cyclic-deformation properties of Ni3Ge single crystals. The cyclic deformation is performed with the stress axis parallel to the [1 1.94 2.69] direction at a strain rate of 1.0 × 10-4 s-1 and at a total-strain amplitude between 5.0 × 10-4 and 1.5 × 10-3. Cyclic strain-hardening occurs to saturation over the range of the employed strain amplitudes. The cyclic-stress amplitude is higher in compression than in tension at a plastic-strain amplitude larger than 1 × 10-5 where screw dislocations are operative. This stress asymmetry becomes more prominent (i.e., the mean stress-amplitude becomes larger in magnitude) as the plastic-strain amplitude becomes larger. At a plastic-strain amplitude less than 1 × 10-5 where edge dislocations are operative, the stress amplitude is symmetric. A similar stress asymmetry is also observed for monotonic flow stress. The cyclic hardening is explained by considering an interaction between the screw dislocations.

To improve fuel economy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, magnesium alloys are being considered for automotive and aerospace applications because of their high strength-to-weight ratio. The objective of this thesis was to study monotonic and cyclic deformation behavior of two semi-solid processed (thixomolded) magnesium alloys, AZ91D and AM60B. The fatigue life of these thixomolded alloys was observed to be higher than that of their die cast counterparts. As the total strain amplitude increased, the stress amplitude and plastic strain amplitude increased, while the pseudoelastic modulus decreased. The change in the modulus was attributed to the nonlinear (pseudoelastic) behavior caused by twinning-detwinning during cyclic deformation. The fatigue life increased with decreasing strain ratio, and partial mean stress relaxation occurred mainly in the initial 10-20% of the fatigue life. The fatigue life of theAM60B alloy improved after solution or solution-aging treatment, and the monotonic strength increased by aging, while the thixomolded condition itself exhibited moderate monotonic strength and fatigue life.

Mean Stresses

Smooth specimens made from austenitic-ferritic duplex steel were subjected to constant stress amplitude loading with positive mean stresses. Hysteresis loops were recorded during the fatigue life and plastic strain amplitude and cyclic creep rate were determined. Fatigue hardening/softening curves, cyclic creep curves and cyclic stress-strain curves for different positive mean stresses were evaluated. Typical dislocation structures developed in both phases of the duplex steel were identified using TEM, compared with the saturated plastic strain amplitude and correlated with the decrease of the cyclic creep rate during cycling and the slope of the cyclic stress-strain curve.

The Mean

The fatigue properties of ferritic-pearlitic-bainitic steel using specimens produced from massive forging were measured in stress controlled regime with positive mean stress. The cyclic creep curves and cyclic hardening/softening curves were evaluated. The fatigue life was plotted in dependence on the mean stress and on the plastic strain amplitude. The principal contribution to the drop of the fatigue life with the mean stress is due to the increase of the plastic strain amplitude in cycling with mean stress.

Step Test

Austenitic stainless steel was cycled at a series of temperatures in the interval from 296 K to 113 K. Constant plastic strain amplitude loading at different levels of plastic strain amplitude and testing similar to multiple step test method were applied at different temperatures. The stress amplitude was continually recorded and selected hysteresis loops were stored and later analyzed using statistical theory of the hysteresis loop. Effective stress component and probability density function as a function of temperature were evaluated. The results were discussed in terms of the temperature dependence of the cyclic yield stress and its sources.
