Using internal stress arising from a spherically symmetric, finite plastic strain, creep of a hollow sphere subjected to inner and outer pressures, and also thermal stress, is discussed. If computer-aided numerical calculation method is used, creep is easily followed up to a finite plastic strain range including initial transient creep, whatever type of creep law is employed. If assumed in a steady state, creep rate, stress, small plastic strain leading to a stress state in steady creep, and another small plastic strain relaxing thermal stress are analytically obtained. Numerical method is also applicable to creep relaxation. Further, the origin of residual stress after unloading is clarified.

This program was undertaken to develop isothermal low-cycle fatigue information for AISI 1010 steel in air. Such information is needed to help predict acceptable conditions for equipment and structures operating at elevated temperatures. Tensile properties and cyclic stress-strain behavior were also developed. For lives between 103 and 106 cycles to failure, fatigue curves were developed at 70, 400, 600, 800, 1000, and 1200°F (21, 204, 316, 427,538, and 649°C). Data for these curves were obtained from constant-amplitude, fully reversed strain-cycling tests of axially loaded specimens. Results from the same experiments were used to define cyclic stress-strain curves at each of the above temperatures. Dynamic strain aging caused a maximum amount of cyclic hardening at 600°F (316°C). In terms of stress amplitude, the maximum fatigue strength was at 600°F (316°C). In terms of either total strain range or plastic strain range, the maximum fatigue resistance was at 400°F (204°C). At temperaures above 600°F (316°C), fatigue resistance decreased as temperature increased. Tensile hold periods caused a significant reduction in cyclic life at 800 and 1000°F (427 and 538°C) but had no noticeable effect on cyclic life at 600°F (316°C). Fatigue resistance was quantified in terms of power functions relating fatigue life to both plastic strain range and stress amplitude, and cyclic stress-strain response was quantified in terms of a power function relating stress amplitude to plastic strain amplitude. The method of strain-range partitioning provided good cyclic life predictions for the limited number of tensile hold-time experiments, although other types of hold periods were not evaluated.

Isothermal fatigue data were collected for the compositions 5Sn-95Pb, 20Sn-80Pb, 40Sn-60Pb, 50Sn-50Pb and 63Sn-37Pb within the binary Sn-Pb system. All of these compositions are commercially available and include those most commonly used. Because Sn-rich solders are rarely used, they were not investigated here. The fatigue life was defined by a 30 percent load drop. The solders were tested in a double shear configuration joined to copper at 75° C. The displacement rate chosen was 0.01 mm/min, which corresponds to a strain rate of 1.5 × 10−4s−1 for our specimen configuration, over a 10 percent plastic strain range. Additionally, the microstructural changes during fatigue are presented. The various solder compositions studied exhibit strikingly different as-solidified microstructures. These differences are discussed in terms of their effect on the isothermal joint failure mechanism and joint isothermal fatigue life.

A two surface stress space model is introduced with internal state variable repositories for fading memory of maximum plastic strain range and non-proportionality of loading. Evolution equations for isotropic hardening variables are prescribed as a function of these internal variables and accumulated plastic strain, and reflect dislocation interactions that occur in real materials. The hardening modulus is made a function of prior plastic deformation and the distance of the current stress point from the limit surface. The kinematic hardening rules of Mroz and Prager are used for the yield and limit surfaces, respectively. The structure of the model is capable of representing essential aspects of complex nonproportional deformation behavior, including direction of the plastic strain rate vector, memory of plastic strain range, cross-hardening effects, variation of hardening modulus, cyclic hardening or softening, cyclic racheting, and mean stress relaxation.

This paper presents the results of low-cycle-fatigue tests wherein either thermal strain or mechanical strain was the independent variable. The materials investigated were primarily ferrous alloys for use in nuclear reactors. The analysis of results was based on plastic-strain-range measurements which could be made reproducibly in the 2 × 10−5 range. Graphs of plastic strain range versus cycles to failure were often found to be independent of large variations in temperature and cycle time. The results from thermal-fatigue and constant-temperature-fatigue tests were usually indistinguishable on these graphs, suggesting that identical metallurgical phenomena occurred in each type of test.
