This paper describes the 35°C and 150°C low cycle fatigue behavior of Sn96 solder (96.5 Sn/3.5 AG), the tin silver eutectic. There is a considerable amount of anecdotal information which says that this solder is superior to eutectic solder in its fatigue resistance. This study generally supports this assertion, but not for all plastic strain ranges. This solder has an excellent balance of strength, ductility and fatigue life under strain cycling. Furthermore, it is also shown that this solder is superior to a high Pb solder (92.5 Pb/2.5 Ag/5.0 Sn). The only drawback of the tin silver eutectic is that it has a higher melting point than the melting point for the Sn/Pb eutectic (221°C versus 183°C), and this requires a higher soldering temperature. This higher temperature necessitates some process alterations in order to use this solder.

Strain Cycling

A study has been conducted to determine the low-cycle fatigue behavior of solution-annealed Incoloy 800 bar at temperatures from 800–1400 deg F. The experimental work included evaluation of specimens under both continuous, completely reversed strain cycling and under strain cycling with hold time periods at the strain limits. At 1000, 1200, and 1400 deg F, it was found that 10-min hold-times at the tensile strain limit during every cycle significantly reduced the cyclic fatigue life compared to continuous cycling. However, there was little reduction in cyclic fatigue life when 10-min hold-times were introduced at the compressive strain limits or at both the tensile and compressive limits. The ratio of hold-time cyclic fatigue life to no-hold-time cyclic fatigue life decreased as the length of hold time increased (at constant total strain range) and as the magnitude of strain range decreased (at constant hold-time length).

The fatigue life of the structural materials 15H2MFA and 08H18N10T of VVER-440 reactor pressure vessel under completely reserved total strain controlled tests were investigated. The measurements were carried out with isothermal condition at 260°C on GLEEBLE 3800 servo-hydraulic thermal mechanical simulator. The isothermal low cycle fatigue results were evaluated with the plastic strain based Coffin-Manson law, and plastic strain energy based model as well. It was shown that both methods are able to predict the fatigue life of reactor pressure vessel steels accurately.

This paper describes low cycle fatigue test run at −50°C, 35°C, 125°C, and 150°C on thin 60 Sn/40 Pb solder joints, tested in simple shear. The low cycle fatigue behavior was found to be a function of the criteria used to define the fatigue life. Different drops in the hysteresis load, measured when a constant plastic strain is being applied, was used to define failure. Not only was the magnitude of the fatigue life a function of the load drop definition for failure, it was also found that the Coffin-Manson low cycle fatigue exponent was a function of this definition. The choice of dependent variable for the curve fitting procedure used to calculate the Coffin-Manson exponent is also considered.

Co -base superalloys have been applied in the stationary components of gas turbine owing to their excellent high temperature properties. Low cycle fatigue data on ECY-768 reported in a companion paper were used to evaluate fatigue life prediction models. In this study, low cycle fatigue tests are performed as the variables of total strain range and temperatures. The relations between plastic and total strain energy densities and number of cycles to failure are examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of Cobalt-based super alloy at different temperatures. The fatigue lives is evaluated using predicted by Coffin-Manson method and strain energy methods is compared with the measured fatigue lives at different temperatures. The microstructure observing was performed for how affect able to low-cycle fatigue life by increasing the temperature.

Abstract A general fatigue life equation is derived by modifying the Tanaka-Mura-Wu dislocation pile-up model for variable strain-amplitude fatigue processes, where the fatigue crack nucleation life is expressed in terms of the root mean square of plastic strain range. Low-cycle fatigue tests were conducted on an austenitic stainless steel. at 400°C and 600°C, the material exhibits continuously cyclic-hardening behaviour. The root mean square of plastic strain ranges is evaluated from the experimental data for each test condition at strain rates ranging from 0.0002/s to 0.02/s. The variable-amplitude Tanaka-Mura-Wu model is found to be in good agreement with the LCF data, which effectively proves Miner’s rule on the stored plastic strain energy basis.
