The stress ratio effect on the fatigue crack growth behavior of 95Pb-5Sn solder has been investigated. It is found that both ΔJ and ΔK can correlate fatigue crack growth data well, which means that the crack growth behavior of the 95Pb-5Sn solder under the frequency of 10 Hz was dominantly cyclic dependent. The da/dN-ΔJ relationship can be expressed as: da/dN=1.1×10−11s˙ΔJ1.45. Low level of crack closure was found only in the near-threshold region. Except in this region, no crack closure was observed in the present test conditions. Both transgranular and intergranular fractures were observed on fracture surfaces: the former was dominant in most test conditions and the latter was dominant at the high stress ratio of 0.7. Striations and striation-like features were also found. Many slip bands and cavities along the grain boundary were observed on the crack wake and ahead of the crack tip in the high crack growth rate region.

As recognized, flaking-type failure is one of the serious problems for railroad tracks and bearings. In essence, flaking-type failure is closely related to the growth of the shear-mode (Mode-II and Mode-III) fatigue crack. In our research group, it is demonstrated that a shear-mode fatigue crack can be reproduced for cylindrical specimens by applying the cyclic torsion in the presence of the static axial compressive stress. However, a biaxial servo-hydraulic fatigue testing machine is quite expensive to purchase and costly to maintain. The low testing speed (about 10Hz) of the testing machine further aggravates the situation. As a result, study on shear-mode fatigue crack growth is still in the nascent stage. To overcome the difficulties mentioned above, in this research activity, we developed a high-performance and cost-effective testing machine to reproduce the shear-mode fatigue crack growth by improving the available resonance-type torsion fatigue testing machine. The primary advantage of using the resonance-type torsion fatigue testing machine is cost-efficiency. In addition, the testing speed effectively can be improved, in comparison with that of a biaxial servo-hydraulic fatigue testing machine. By utilizing the newly-designed testing machine, we have demonstrated that we can successfully reproduce the shear-mode fatigue crack.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of weld metal (WM), heat affected zone(HAZ) and base metal(BM) of Duplex Stainless Steel 2205(DSS) has been determined at high-frequency fatigue testing machine. The results show that the fatigue crack growth rate of WM is slowest and the ability to resist fatigue crack growth is highest in the three parts. Secondly, the sensitivity caused by the stress change of WM is the highest, followed by HAZ, and the BM is the weakest.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of weld metal (WM), heat affected zone (HAZ) and base metal(BM) of Duplex Stainless Steel (DSS) 2205 standard sample was tested in different stress ratios at HF fatigue testing machine. ANSYS analysis software was used to simulate the fatigue crack growth rate of the steel under different stress ratio. Regression equations and da / dK-ΔK curves of experiment and simulation are compared and analyzed. The results show that the fatigue crack growth rate of WM is slowest and the ability to resist fatigue crack growth is highest among the three parts, the lowest is BM. Secondly, the sensitivity of the rate caused by the stress change of WM is the highest, and the lowest is BM. The simulation of fatigue crack growth rate of DSS 2205 is completely correct and feasible by the experiment.

Aluminum alloy material is an important component material in the safe flight of aircraft. It is very important and necessary to predict the fatigue crack growth between holes of aviation aluminum alloy materials. At present, the investigation on the prediction of the cracks between two holes and multiholes is a key problem to be solved. Due to the fact that the fatigue crack growth test of aluminum alloy plate with two or three holes was carried out by the MTS fatigue testing machine, the crack length growth data under different test conditions were obtained. In this paper, support vector regression (SVR) was used to fit the crack data, and the parameters of SVR are optimized by the grid search algorithm at the same time. And then the model of SVR to predict the crack length was established. Discussion on the results shows that the prediction model is effective. Furthermore, the crack growth between three holes was predicted accurately through the model of the crack law between two holes under the same load form.

In this study, the fatigue crack growth rates (FCGRs) of Ti-15V-3Cr-3Al-3Sn alloy aged in the temperature ranges from 426 to 593 oC for 8 hrs was determined at stress ration of 0.1 or 0.5. The results of fatigue crack growth tests revealed the FCGRs decreased with increasing aging temperature. Generally, the 426oC aged specimen had the highest FCGRs among the specimens being tested, regardless of stress ratio. It was noted obvious increase in FCGRs occurred for the 482oC aged specimen at stress ratio of 0.5. Fatigue fracture appearance of various specimens tested in air exhibited predominantly transgranular fatigue fracture with coarse stripes for the specimens aged at/above 538oC. Intergranular fracture was more likely to be found in the 426oC aged specimen, and for the A482 specimen tested at high stress ratio.
