Stress Criterion

SummaryNishihara’s combined bending and torsion out-of-phase fatigue limit data are analysed. The Tresca shear stress failure criterion predicts strengths up to 30 per cent higher than observed. It thus appears that renewed attention should be given to the basic problem of developing reliable combined stress failure criteria. It is suggested that new test methods will be required for this purpose.

Abstract As the core component of aero-engine, the service performance of aero-engine blade has an important influence on the engine’s reliability and safety performance. Existing studies have shown that machined surface characteristics affect the fatigue strength of components. However, current studies are all based on regular fatigue samples. The structure of blades different from fatigue samples, and the influence mechanism of structural differences on the service performance of blades is still unclear. In addition, the conventional fatigue test conditions are not representative for the blades’ actual service conditions, so it is difficult to realize the processing process for the service performance optimization. In this study, the aero-engine blades processed by abrasive belt grinding and the vibration fatigue test bench were used to explore the influence of surface roughness, surface texture, and surface residual stress on the fatigue performance of aero-engine blades under actual working conditions. The aero-engine blades were ground with different process parameters to obtain different single-factor surface characteristics. By comparing the vibration fatigue life of blades with different surface features, the influence degree of each surface feature on the fatigue life was explored. Results showed that surface roughness has the greatest influence on fatigue strength, followed by residual stress, and surface texture has the least influence on fatigue strength.

OBJECTIVE: This research aimed at comparing the qualitative chemical compositions and the surface morphology of fracture regions of eight types of Nickel (Ni) Titanium (Ti) conventional wires, superelastic and heat-activated (GAC, TP, Ormco, Masel, Morelli and Unitek), to the wires with addition of copper (CuNiTi 27oC and 35oC, Ormco) after traction test. METHODS: The analyses were performed in a scanning electronic microscope (JEOL, model JSM-5800 LV) with EDS system of microanalysis (energy dispersive spectroscopy). RESULTS : The results showed that NiTi wires presented Ni and Ti as the main elements of the alloy with minimum differences in their composition. The CuNiTi wires, however, presented Ni and Ti with a significant percentage of copper (Cu). As for surface morphology, the wires that presented the lowest wire-surface roughness were the superelastic ones by Masel and Morelli, while those that presented the greatest wire-surface roughness were the CuNiTi 27oC and 35oC ones by Ormco, due to presence of microcavity formed as a result of pulling out some particles, possibly of NiTi. 4 The fracture surfaces presented characteristics of ductile fracture, with presence of microcavities. The superelastic wires by GAC and the CuNiTi 27oC and the heat-activated ones by Unitek presented the smallest microcavities and the lowest wire-surface roughness with regard to fracture, while the CuNiTi 35oC wires presented inadequate wire-surface roughness in the fracture region. CONCLUSION: CuNiTi 35oC wires did not present better morphologic characteristics in comparison to the other wires with regard to surfaces and fracture region.

Fatigue Evaluation

Fatigue evaluation methods have been proposed based on environmental fatigue test results regarding parameters selected for simulating Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) and Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) conditions. The effects of strain wave form have been discussed by comparing experimental fatigue life with predicted fatigue life evaluated by modified rate approach (MRA) method. The applicability of the MRA method has been verified extensively by the environmental fatigue tests with strain rate changing conditions consisting of combined constant strain rates. However, different results have been obtained for a sine strain wave in simulated BWR and PWR conditions. More study for evaluating the applicability of MRA method was required by evaluating with continuous strain rate conditions such as a sine wave. For the purpose of verification, two approaches were applied. One is performing the environmental fatigue tests with the sine strain wave in simulated BWR condition. The other is to evaluate the low cycle thermal fatigue test performed in simulated BWR condition because the wave form of this test contains continuous strain rate changing condition. MRA method was indicated to be applicable to predict fatigue lives under these kinds of continuous strain rate changing conditions. All of the studies including this study verifying the applicability of the MRA method were performed with small specimens having the well polished surfaces in the gage length. These results indicate that the evaluation by the MRA method includes the synergistic effect between the water environment and the transient. However, the synergistic effects with the surface roughness and the component size are not known. Design margin derived by the multiplication of the sub-factors of environment, surface roughness and component size may be conservative. The evaluation of the conservatism is considered to be beneficial.

This study presents the experimental results of the influence of mechanical fatigue and tensile on hybrid composite materials. Epoxy with Novolac resin are used as matrix for the reinforced materials that consist of glass fiber type E. The slates made of hybrid composite materials for two proportions (80% epoxy, 20% Novolac) and (60% epoxy, 40% Novolac) were reinforced by three volume fractions (10%, 20% and 30%) of glass fiber type (E), where been manufacturing (6) panels of hybrid composite materials, all these panels cutting into two groups samples with dimension (70x 10) mm in order to execute the fatigue test and (150x20) mm for tensile test, according to the specifications of the device used.The process took place in two stages: The two stages include executing the fatigue and tensile test specimens with a ratio (80% epoxy, 20% Novolac) in the first stage and (60% epoxy, 40% Novolac) in the second stage for the volume fractions (10%, 20% and 30%) of glass fiber type (E) and comparison the results between them for each stage. The results obtained from fatigue test in the first stage showed that the number cycle for fatigue limit decreased when the load and the number of layers of reinforcing are increased. But in the tensile test for the samples the results showed that the value of the elongation increasing to the point of failure when the load increased for the same layers of reinforcement, as well as the value of elongation decreasing to a failure when increased the number of layers of reinforcing glass fibers type (E) for the same load. The results of tensile and fatigue test obtained from the second stage showed similar to the results in the first stage, but the cycle number of fatigue limit less value from the first stage and the stress was higher in the fatigue test. For tensile test the elongation values ​​less and the stress values higher for the same volume fraction of the reinforcement due to increase in the proportion of Novolac.
