Ultra High Cycle Fatigue

The combined high and low cycle fatigue (CCF) test on full scale turbine blade in the laboratory is an important method to evaluate the life. In fact, the low cycle fatigue which is usually caused by the centrifugal force can be confirmed easily. While, the high cycle fatigue which is usually caused by the vibration and aerodynamic force is often hard to determine. So the previous scholar has proposed the contrast method to determine the high cycle load in the field. This method utilizes the new and used blades to determine the high cycle within certain limits. While it can’t be applied effectively in the whole life range with the low cycle-high cycle-ultra high cycle fatigue theory raised. So this paper put forward the modified contrast method to realize the optimization. Firstly, the CCF tests are carried out on the turbine blade systematically. Then, the CCF damage properties, including the crack propagation, the fracture morphology and the dynamic characteristic are analyzed. Lastly, the new modified contrast method is proposed with the new coordinate axes, new fitting criterions and amend method. Through comparisons we conclude that: the new method is slightly complicated, but the evaluate precision has significantly increased. So it could be used to deal with data for CCF tests on full scale turbine blade in the future.

Fatigue Mechanism

The effect of the lamellar morphology on the high cycle fatigue (HCF) and low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of the Ti-22Al-27Nb alloy was investigated. The HCF tests were performed in air at an R ratio of 0.1 in the load-control mode, whereas the LCF tests were performed in vacuum at 923 K in the strain-controlled mode. The specimens with fine lamellar microstructure exhibited a better resistance to HCF than those with coarse lamellar microstructure. The microstructure-insensitive behavior was, however, observed in the LCF tests at 923 K. The fatigue mechanism was discussed based on the concurrent observation of the initiation facet and the underlying microstructure, and the TEM observations.

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.

Mechanical Cutting

In the last years, car bodies are increasingly made with new advanced high-strength steels, for both lightweighting and safety purposes. Among these new steels, high-manganese or TWIP steels exhibit a promising combination of strength and toughness, arising from the austenitic structure, strengthened by C, and from the twinning induced plasticity effect. Mechanical cutting such as punching or shearing is widely used for the manufacturing of car body components. This method is known to bring about a very clear plastic deformation and therefore causes a significant increase of mechanical stress and micro-hardness in the zone adjacent to the cut edge. To improve the cut edge quality, surface treatments, such as sandblasting, are often used. This surface treatment generates a compressive residual stress layer in the subsurface region. The monotonic tensile properties and deformation mechanisms of these steels have been extensively studied, as well as the effect of grain size and distribution and chemical composition on fatigue behaviour; however, there is not so much documentation about the fatigue performance of these steels cut using different strategies. Thus, the aim of this work is to analyse the fatigue behaviour of a TWIP steel after mechanical cutting with and without sandblasting in Low and High-Cycle Fatigue regimes. The fatigue behaviour has been determined at room temperature with tensile samples tested with a load ratio of 0.1 and load amplitude control to analyse High-Cycle Fatigue behaviour; and a load ratio of -1 and strain amplitude control to determine the Low-Cycle Fatigue behaviour. Samples were cut by shearing with a clearance value of 5%. Afterwards, a part of the cut specimens were manually blasted using glass microspheres of 40 to 95 microns of diameter as abrasive media. The results show a beneficial effect of the sandblasting process in fatigue behaviour in both regimes, load amplitude control (HCF) and strain amplitude control (LCF) tests, when these magnitudes are low, while no significant differences are observed with higher amplitudes. low-cycle fatigue, high-cycle fatigue, mechanical cutting, sandblasting, high manganese steel, TWIP steel

Rate Dependency

In this study, the influence of microstructure on the cyclic behaviour and lifetime of Cu and Au wires with diameters of 25μm in the low and high cycle fatigue regimes was investigated. Low cycle fatigue (LCF) tests were conducted with a load ratio of 0.1 and a strain rate of ~2e-4. An ultrasonic resonance fatigue testing system working at 20 kHz was used to obtain lifetime curves under symmetrical loading conditions up to very high cycle regime (VHCF). In order to obtain a total fatigue life model covering the low to high cycle regime of the thin wires by considering the effects of mean stress, a four parameter lifetime model is proposed. The effect of testing frequency on high cycle fatigue data of Cu is discussed based on analysis of strain rate dependency of the tensile properties with the help of the material model proposed by Johnson and Cook.

Component Development

Fatigue is the most critical failure mode of many mechanical component. Therefore, fatigue life assessment under fluctuating loads during component development is essential. The most important requirement for any fatigue life assessment is knowledge of the relationships between stresses, strains, and fatigue life for the material under consideration. These relationships, for any given material, are mostly unique and dependent on its fatigue behavior. Since the work of Wöhler in the 1850’s, the uniaxial stress versus cycles to fatigue failure, which is known as the S-N curve, is typically utilized for high-cycle fatigue. In general, high cycle fatigue implies linear elastic behavior and causes failure after more than 104 or 105 cycles. However. the transition from low cycle fatigue to high cycle fatigue, which is unique for each material based on its properties, has not been well examined. In this paper, this transition is studied and a material dependent number of cycles for the transition is derived based on the material properties. Some implications of this derivation, on assessing and approximating the crack initiation fatigue life, are also discussed.
