Fatigue And Fracture

Total strain controlled low cycle fatigue tests were conducted at 1173K for DD32 and SRR99 alloys. With the increase of total strain range, the stress amplitude of DD32 alloy improved more fleetly than that of SRR99 alloy. At total strain ranges less than or equal to 1.0%, the low cycle fatigue life of DD32 alloy was greater than that of SRR99 alloy. It was shown that the higher content of refractory elements in DD32 alloy resulted in a remarkable improvement of LCF properties compared to SRR99 alloy. The crack propagation perpendicular to the stress axis occurred in transgranular mode in both alloys. DD32 alloy presented more ductile character than SRR99 alloy.

Alloy 800H is currently being considered as one of the near-term candidate materials for design and construction of some major high temperature components of a very high temperature reactor (VHTR). System start-ups and shut-downs as well as power transients will produce low-cycle fatigue loadings of components. The aim of this work is to study the low cycle fatigue behavior of Alloy 800H base metal and weldments at 700°C. The weldment specimens were machined from gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) butt-welded plate such that the loading direction was oriented transverse to the welding direction. Fully reversed total-strain controlled low-cycle fatigue tests have been performed at total strain ranges of 0.6, 0.9, 1.2 and 1.5%. For all the low-cycle fatigue tests, triangular test waveforms with a constant strain rate of 10−3/s were applied. Low-cycle fatigue testing was conducted in accordance with ASTM Standard E606 on servo-hydraulic test machines. And also, creep-fatigue experiments were carried out at 700°C employing 0.6% total strain range and 10−3/s strain rate using trapezoidal waveform with tension hold time. The main focus is to characterize the low-cycle fatigue properties for Alloy 800H weldment specimens from the cyclic deformation behavior and fatigue fracture behavior. The cyclic deformation behavior was influenced by total strain range and material property. The fatigue life was decreased with increasing the total strain range for both base metal and weldment. However, the lives of weldment specimens have a longer life than that of base metal at lower total strain ranges. It was also observed that creep effects play a significant role in fatigue life reduction.

Low-cycle fatigue tests have been carried out at 2 cpm on a pressure vessel steel at 350 deg C (662 deg F). The total strain range was fixed for each test and the minimum (or mean) strain in some cases was constant (zero minimum value), in others increased uniformly in time at a predetermined rate. It was found that variations in the mean strain up to 0.5 percent/hour had no significant influence on the results.

Components of gas turbines must be extremely resistant to high temperatures, high stresses, high-temperature corrosion, and erosive environments. The materials used in these environmental conditions are mainly nickel-based superalloys. In this study, the low-cycle fatigue of the nickel-based superalloy Inconel 792 was examined. The total strain range of a gas turbine between 760 °C and 870 °C was considered as the parameter representing the actual gas turbine operation. In addition, tests were performed using a trapezoidal waveform of the total strain to reflect the operation-stop conditions of a gas turbine with frequent shutdowns. The results of the fatigue test were compared with the Coffin–Manson method and energy method. The fractured surface was analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Tensile and low cycle fatigue properties of Sn-5Sb (mass%) solder were investigated with miniature size tensile specimens. The effect of temperature and strain rate on tensile properties and the effect of temperature on low cycle fatigue properties were examined. Tensile strength increases with increasing strain rate regardless of temperature investigated. For elongation, the effect of temperature on it is negligible although it slightly increases with increasing strain rate. The low cycle fatigue life of Sn-5Sb obeys by the Manson-Coffin’s equation. The effect of temperature on the fatigue life is negligible in the temperature range from 25 oC to 150 oC. In the low cycle fatigue test with a high total strain range of 4%, cracking at phase boundary mainly occurs regardless of temperature investigated. In the case of a low total strain range of 0.4%, ductile fracture mainly occurs, and cracking at phase boundary with generation of grooves also occurs at high temperature.

A cruciform test specimen and a loading rig are described, by which any combination of biaxial strains can be applied to a specimen. With the pressurizing equipment so far available, three states of strains have been investigated for two steels. In the mild steel used, large inclusions oriented in the roll direction aided fracture propagation when a maximum shear plane coincided with the roll direction. When not influenced by inclusions, fatigue life is related to total strain range by Coffin's law         ∊ N a = C The values of α and C are different for different states of strains. Empirical formulae are given to predict results for other states of strains.

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.

This paper presents the results of tests conducted on the HR6W (23Cr-45Ni-6W-Nb-Ti-B) alloy under low-cycle fatigue at room temperature and at 650 °C. Fatigue tests were carried out at constant values of the total strain ranges. The alloy under low-cycle fatigue showed cyclic strengthening both at room temperature and at 650 °C. The degree of HR6W strengthening described by coefficient n’ was higher at higher temperatures. At the same time, its fatigue life Nf at room temperature was, depending on the range of total strain adopted in the tests, several times higher than observed at 650 °C.

Lead Free Solders

This paper investigates the fatigue results in low cycle fatigue region obtained from a miniaturized specimen having a 6mm gage length, 3mm diameter and 55mm total length. Fatigue tests were performed for two type lead-free solders using horizontal-type electrical servo hydraulic push-pull fatigue testing machine. Materials employed were Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu and Sn-5Sb. The results from Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu were compared with those obtained using a bulk specimen in a previous study. Relationship between strain range and number of cycles to failure of the small-sized specimen agreed with those of the bulk specimens. The testing techniques are applicable to Sn-5Sb following the Manson-Coffin law. These results confirm that the testing technique proposed here, using small-sized specimen, is suitable to get fruitful fatigue data for lead-free solder compounds.
