Laminates based on ultrahigh carbon steel were prepared and found to exhibit enhanced fatigue life as compared to a monolithic reference material. This result was achieved through the insertion of weak interlaminar regions of copper into the layered material during preparation of the laminates. The presence of these regions allowed for the operation of a delamination mechanism in advance of the propagating fatigue crack. The result was interlaminar separation and associated crack blunting. Stress-life curves show that an increase in life by as much as a factor of four is achieved for these materials when compared to monolithic specimens of similar processing history.

Non-standard processing routes for the manufacture of industrial scale Ti834 billet have been undertaken to investigate their effect on macrozones in final forged product. Microstructure, texture and dwell fatigue fracture surfaces were characterised from forged disc samples fabricated from these new billets. All processing routes showed a bimodal microstructure consisting of 25pct of primary alpha grains in a transformed beta matrix. Texture analysis has revealed variations in the presence and size of macrozones with relatively weak textures. Quasi-cleavage facets were present in all dwell fatigue samples although the fatigue life was doubled for the sample whose thermomechanical processing has the highest imposed strain.

Cycle Fatigue

Low cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of a powder metallurgy(PM) nickel base superalloy FGH720Li were systematically studied in this work, including smooth LCF and notched LCF tested at various temperatures and different stress. The relationship between the fatigue life and applied stress was analyzed both for smooth fatigue and notch fatigue tests. The effects of loading frequency and stress ratio on LCF behavior were also studied. As an important influencing factor of the fatigue life in powder metallurgy superalloy, the effect of inclusions on LCF life was also investigated. The results showed that the fatigue properties of FGH720Li alloy was excellent, when tested at the temperature of 450°C and applied stress of 1230MPa, the fatigue life could exceed 5×104 cycles. When tested at 650°C and 1150MPa, the average fatigue life was still beyond 2×105 cycles.

Dwell Fatigue

Frequency is an important factor influencing the fatigue behavior. Regarding to the dwell fatigue, it corresponds to the effect of rise and fall time, which is also an important issue especially for the safety evaluation of structure parts under dwell fatigue loading, such as the engines of aircrafts and the pressure hulls of deep-sea submersibles. In this paper, the effect of rise and fall time (2 s, 20 s, 110 s, and 200 s) on the dwell fatigue behavior is investigated for a high strength titanium alloy Ti-6Al-2Sn-2Zr-3Mo-X with basket-weave microstructure. It is shown that the dwell fatigue life decreases with increasing the rise and fall time, which could be correlated by a linear relation in log–log scale for both the specimen with circular cross section and the specimen with square cross section. The rise and fall time has no influence on the crack initiation mechanism by the scanning electron microscope observation. The cracks initiate from the specimen surface and all the fracture surfaces present multiple crack initiation sites. Moreover, the facet characteristic is observed at some crack initiation sites for both the conventional fatigue and dwell fatigue tests. The paper also indicates that the dwell period of the peak stress reduces the fatigue life and the dwell fatigue life seems to be longer for the specimen with circular cross section than that of the specimen with square cross section.

This paper will present a probabilistic approach developed in order to assess the fatigue life of aircraft engine parts (turbine disks) obtained by powder metallurgy technique. First of all, the main issues will be pointed out and the theoretical principles of the method will be described. Then the design implications and the experimental correlation will be emphasised. The scale effect is a major concern for the fatigue life assessment of a powder metallurgy part. It no longer allows the designer to directly evaluate the life of a massive part from experimental results based on small specimen fatigue tests as it is done in the classical methodology. In order to correctly describe this scale effect, incubation sites (inhomogeneities like ceramic inclusions) must be characterised. The size of these inhomogeneities and their positions in the part appeared to be the most relevant parameters. Hence the methodology developed at Snecma integrates the scale effect scatter through a binomial probability distribution as well as a temperature and stress dependent life evaluation for each inhomogeneity size and position. The life calculation of a part implies an analysis of its whole volume and surface. An iterative process determines the number of cycles corresponding to a global reliability level requirement for the part. The complete methodology is then validated by comparing the calculated initiation distribution with experimental results on small specimens and test disks.
