β-titanium alloy has been developed recently because β-titanium alloy has better cold workability, proof stress, and tensile strength. In order to use β-titanium alloy for automobile parts subject to cyclic loading, very high cycle fatigue properties of β-titanium alloy should be investigated. In this study, very high cycle fatigue properties of β-titanium alloy Ti-22V-4Al were evaluated by using an ultrasonic fatigue testing method, which allows us to reduce a fatigue testing period to 1/100 − 1/1000 of that by using conventional testing methods. An S-N diagram and fracture morphology of Ti-22V-4Al in the very high cycle region were investigated. Fatigue failure was observed and subsurface fracture occurred in the very high cycle region.

In order to investigate the effect of plasma nitriding treatment on fatigue behavior of titanium alloys, very high cycle fatigue tests were carried out for Ti-6Al-4V alloy using an ultrasonic fatigue machine under load control conditions for stress ratios of R=-1 at frequency of ƒ=20KHz. Experiment results showed that plasma nitriding treatment played the principal role in the internal fatigue crack initiation. More importantly, plasma nitriding treatment had a detrimental effect on fatigue properties of the investigated Ti-6Al-4V alloy, and the fatigue strength of material after plasma nitriding treatment appeared to be significantly reduced about 17% over the untreated material.

Very high cycle fatigue degradation of type 316L austenitic stainless steel, which is used as the structural material of neutron spallation sources under intensive neutron irradiation environment, is investigated by using an ultrasonic fatigue testing machine. The strain rate imposed on the structure of neutron spallation source is almost equivalent to that produced in the testing machine. The temperature on the surface was controlled by the air-cooling. The effect of strain rate on the fatigue strength is recognized to increase the fatigue limit.

Ultra High Cycle Fatigue

The present paper deals with experimental studies on the ultra-high cycle fatigue property of Q345 bridge steel. Using the ultrasonic fatigue testing technique, specimens of Q345 welded joint with hourglass shape were designed using an analytical method combining with the finite element method and then fatigue tested in air at room temperature under fully reversed cyclic loading conditions (R=-1). The results show that the S-N curves of welded joints and relative base material specimens show continuously decreasing tendency in the very high cycle regime (105-109 cycles). Fatigue property of welded joint is much lower than that of base material and the fatigue strength of welded joint is only 45.0% of base material. Fracture can still occur on welded joints beyond 5 106 cycles, which indicates the fatigue limit defined at lifetime of 5 106 cycles cannot guarantee a safe design.

Ultra High Cycle Fatigue

Fatigue property of 45 steel was studied in this paper with the method of ultrasonic fatigue testing, and SEM was used to analyze microscopic characteristics of the fatigue fracture. Fatigue test results show that: S-N curves descend continuously after 108 cycles, there is no fatigue limit as the traditional fatigue conception describes. Therefore, it is very dangerous to design welded structure working in the ultra-high cycle interval with the fatigue strength corresponding to 5×106 cycles. In the super-long life range, the fatigue property of welded joints is worse than the base metal. SEM analysis shows that: fatigue crack mainly initiates from the defects in the surface or sub-surface.

Ultra High Cycle Fatigue

Austenitic stainless steels are the wide-spread materials, used mainly in the power industry. In that kind of engineering application, structural parts of rotating elements reach during their lifetime very high numbers of loading cycles, exceeding 107 numbers of cycles. With regard to this fact, the data of ultra-high cycle fatigue properties are needed to be used in the qualified design. Increasing demands on the efficiency cause the increase of the operating temperature, and exposition of these materials to the elevated temperatures can cause some important structural changes, which result in the sensitising of the structure. In this study authors present their own experimental results about fatigue properties of AISI 316Ti austenitic stainless steel after sensitising, in the ultra-high cycle region (Nf = 106 ~ Nf = 3×109 cycles). Fatigue tests were carried out using ultrasonic fatigue testing device with frequency f = 20 kHz at the coefficient of cycle asymmetry R = -1, and temperature T = 20±5°C. In the ultra-high cycle region was observed the continuous decrease of the fatigue properties of the AISI 316Ti, and there was recorded the negative effect of the sensitising on the ultra-high cycle fatigue properties of the AISI 316Ti.

The high temperature ultra-high cycle fatigue (UHCF) behaviors of DZ125 superalloy used in aero-engine turbine blades were systematically studied. The results show that the fatigue fracture still occurs above 108 at the frequency of 20kHz, R=-1 and 700°C. There is a negligible frequency effect for the DZ125 superalloy, therefore, it is proposed that the ultrasonic fatigue testing could be expected as an accelerated fatigue testing method. Fatigue cracks originate from the subsurface of the specimens, where have no metallurgy defects or “fish eye” character. The crystal orientation change of the alloy is very little after fatigue.The maximum value changed for the elastic modulus of the alloy is about 30GPa after fatigue compared with that before fatigue.
