Abstract In order to elucidate the temperature dependence of hydrogen-assisted fatigue crack growth (HAFCG), the fatigue crack growth (FCG) test was performed on low-carbon steel JIS-SM490B according to ASTM E647 using compact tension (CT) specimen under 0.7 MPa (≈ 0.1 ksi) hydrogen-gas at room temperature (RT: 298 K (≈ 77 °F)) and 423 K (≈ 302 °F) at stress intensity factor range of ΔK = 30 MPa m1/2 (≈ 27 ksi in1/2). Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) observation was performed on the mid-thick section of CT specimen in order to investigate change in plasticity around the crack wake in gaseous hydrogen environment and how it changes due to temperature elevation. The obtained results showed the higher temperature, the lower intense of HAFCG as reported in our previous article. Plasticity around the crack wake became less in gaseous hydrogen environment, especially tested at 298 K. The propensity of the results obtained at higher temperature (423 K) can be separated into two cases: (i) intense plasticity occurs like tested in air, (ii) crack propagates straighter accompanying less plasticity like tested in gaseous hydrogen environment at 298 K. This implies macroscopic FCG rate is determined by combination of microscopic FCG rate in the case (i) and case (ii).

Abstract The fatigue crack growth behavior in SiC (SCS-6) fiber reinforced Ti-15-3 matrix alloy composite subjected to a constant tension-tension loading mode was studied using single edge specimen in 2 × 10−3 Pa vacuum at 293 and 823K, with a frequency of 2 Hz, and a stress ratio of R = 0.1. Direct measurement of the fatigue crack length, and the crack opening displacement along the crack wake during the test were carried out by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The increase in the test temperature was found to lead to a decrease in the fatigue crack growth rate. The degradation of bridging fibers in the crack wake was severe for T = 293K, and this behavior was dependent of the test temperature. Fine particle-like debris was found on the fracture surface in the region of crack propagation in specimens tested at T = 823K. This is thought to be caused by the interface wear behavior. The crack opening displacement along the crack wake tested at T = 823K decreased with increasing crack length, and this tendency is dependent on the applied stress range. The associated increase in the crack tip shielding is explained on the basis of the crack closure due to the matrix relaxation by fatigue creep and the interface wear behavior.
