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 low cycle fatigue behavior was experimentally studied with the 3-dimension notched LD8 aluminum alloy specimens at 300°C. The 3- dimension stress-strain responses of specimens were calculated by means of the program ADINA. The multiaxial fatigue life prediction was carried out according to von Mises’s equivalent theory. The results from the prediction showed that the equivalent strain range can be served as the valid mechanics for predicting multiaxial high temperature and low cyclic fatigue life.

The demand for ultra supercritical (USC) power plants has increased due to the need for high thermal efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions. For turbine materials, high-cycle and lowcycle fatigue life at USC service temperatures are needed to verify material integrity due to the heat-up and cool-down process of power plant operation and due to turbine variations during operation. In this paper, fatigue characteristics for 9~12 Cr steels as candidate USC bucket materials were investigated. First, the fatigue life between DS2B2 and COST B2 steel were compared. COST B2 is the commercial steel with improved high temperature properties by adding boron, and DS2B2 is the new steel developed by Doosan by adding Co and adjusting Mo and W based on the same Mo equivalent value (%wt. Mo + 1/2 %wt. W). DS2B2 steel was found to have longer low cycle fatigue life than COST B2. Second, the effect of boron on fatigue life for bucket materials based on COST B2 steel was investigated. At room temperature, as boron content increased, low cycle fatigue life became superior, whereas, at 593oC the fatigue life was similar. For high cycle fatigue, as boron content increased, fatigue life increased due to the strengthening effect by the addition of boron.

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.

This paper describes the frequency and hold-time effects on high temperature low cycle fatigue for round notched specimens. Unnotched and notched specimens having different elastic stress concentration factors were fatigued under triangular and trapezoidal stress waves at frequencies ranging from 5 Hz to 0.0001 Hz at 873 K. The three specific fracture characteristics were observed: cycle dependent, time dependent, and cycle-time dependent. The respective notch sensitivity occurred in the respective fracture regime. The fatigue life of notched specimens was predicted from the elastic-plastic-creep cyclic FEM analysis using the linear damage rule and the strain range partitioning rule. Both the life prediction methods predicted the creep-fatigue life within almost a factor of two scatter band.

Strain-controlled low cycle fatigue (LCF) and creep-fatigue interaction (CFI) tests of K447A are conducted at 760oC in order to investigate the effects of different dwell times and strain ratios on the fatigue behavior and life. For the cases of stain ratio Rε=-1 with balanced hold time, the tensile and compressive mean stresses will generate. For the case of stain ratio Rε=-1 with compressive holding 60s, the tensile mean stress will produce. For the case of stain ratio Rε=-1 with tensile holding 60s, the compressive mean stress will produce. For the cases of stain ratio Rε=0.1 and Rε=-1with no hold time, the tensile mean stress will produce. The cyclic damage accumulation (CDA) method and modified CDA method were employed to predict the fatigue life for K447A, respectively. The fatigue life predicted by CDA method is within the scatter band of 18.2X. The fatigue life predicted by the modified CDA method agrees very well with the experimental life and the predicted life is well within the scatter band of 3.1X, which means that the modified CDA method is able to consider the influences of dwell time and strain ratio on the fatigue life of K447A.

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.
