In this paper results of P91 cast steel after static and fatigue tests were presented. During the tests longitudinal and transverse strains of the specimen were measured. Basing on the results a comparative analysis of nominal stresses σn,true stresses σrz, nominal strain energy ΔWpl (n) and true strain energy ΔWpl (n) was carried out. It was stated that differences between determined paramters rise with increasing strain.

The report treats of the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour of GX12CrMoVNbN9-1 (GP91) cast steel after heat treatment (1040°C/12h/oil + 760°C/12h/air + 750°C/8h/furnace). Fatigue tests were carried out at room temperature for five levels of the controlled total strain amplitude εac = 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.50 and 0.60 %. The research performed within the scope of LCF has shown in general that the investigated cast steel was subject to strong cyclic weakening, revealing no stabilization period at the same time. At the final stage of fatigue there was quick weakening of the material which proceeded till its destruction. The growth of amplitude εac resulted in reducing the number of cycles till the destruction stage.

Low cycle fatigue tests are performed on the Inconel 617 super alloy that be used for structural material of hot gas casing for gas turbine. The relations between strain energy density and number of cycles to failure are examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of Inconel 617 super alloy. The lives predicted by strain energy methods are found to coincide with experimental data and results obtained from the Coffin-Manson method. And, the cyclic behavior of the Inconel 617 super alloy is characterized by cyclic hardening with increasing number of cycles.

The paper presents the results of research on the changes in microstructure of GX12CrMoVNbN9-1 cast steel subject to aging at the temperature of 600°C and holding time of 8000 hours, followed by low-cycle fatigue. The characteristics of the microstructure of the examined cast steel after ageing and low-cycle fatigue was described using transmission electron microscopy (study of the dislocation microstructure) and morphology of precipitations. It has been shown that low cycle fatigue leads to the matrix softening as a result of the processes of recovery, polygonization and repolygonization. Moreover, the processes of precipitation of Laves phase and coagulation of M23C6 carbides were observed in the microstructure. Intensity of these processes depended not only on the temperature of fatigue tests, but also on the level of total strain amplitude εac.

Abstract The study describes the investigations of fatigue life carried out on selected grades of the G20Mn5 cast steel by two methods, i.e. the standard low-cycle fatigue test (LCF test) and modified low-cycle fatigue test (MLCF). The aim of these investigations was to verify the reliability of tests conducted by the novel method of MLCF [1, 2, 3]. Table 1 shows the results of mechanical tests carried out in accordance with the MLCF methodology on the G20Mn5 cast steel, while Figures 1a-b and 2 show the selected σ = f (ε) curves. Similar studies were carried out for the Mn-Ni cast steel [4]. Low-cycle fatigue tests (LCF) were carried out on an MTS 810 testing machine with control of force exerted on specimens whose dimensions were specified in [2].

The paper treats of the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour of GX12CrMoVNbN9-1 (GP91) cast steel after heat treatment. Fatigue tests at the temperature of 600oC within the scope of small amount of cycles to failure were carried out for five levels of controlled amplitude of total strain εac = 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.50 and 0.60 %. The investigated cast steel within the scope of low cycle fatigue life reveals a three-stage course of changes in strength and strain. In the given scope of low cycle fatigue for GP91 cast steel, cyclic weakening was observed without the occurrence of stabilization period of its properties.

Failure Data

Standards for the fatigue testing of wearable sensing technologies are lacking. The majority of published fatigue tests for wearable sensors are performed on proof-of-concept stretch sensors fabricated from a variety of materials. Due to their flexibility and stretchability, polymers are often used in the fabrication of wearable sensors. Other materials, including textiles, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and conductive metals or inks, may be used in conjunction with polymers to fabricate wearable sensors. Depending on the combination of the materials used, the fatigue behaviors of wearable sensors can vary. Additionally, fatigue testing methodologies for the sensors also vary, with most tests focusing only on the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) regime, and few sensors are cycled until failure or runout are achieved. Fatigue life predictions of wearable sensors are also lacking. These issues make direct comparisons of wearable sensors difficult. To facilitate direct comparisons of wearable sensors and to move proof-of-concept sensors from “bench to bedside,” fatigue testing standards should be established. Further, both high-cycle fatigue (HCF) and failure data are needed to determine the appropriateness in the use, modification, development, and validation of fatigue life prediction models and to further the understanding of how cracks initiate and propagate in wearable sensing technologies.

Cumulative Energy

In the present article, acoustic emission signals were utilized to predict the damage in polymer matrix composites, reinforced by carbon fibers, in the low-cycle fatigue regime. Displacement-controlled fatigue tests were performed on open-hole samples, under different conditions, at various displacement amplitudes of 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0 mm and also under various displacement rates of 25, 50, 100 and 200 mm/min. After acquiring acoustic emission signals during cycles, two characteristic parameters were used, including the energy and the cumulative energy. Obtained results implied that the energy parameter of acoustic emission signals could be used only for the macroscopic damage, occurring at more than 65% of normalized fatigue cycles under different test conditions. However, the cumulative energy could properly predict both microscopic and macroscopic defects, at least two failure types, including matrix cracking at first cycles and the fiber breakage at last cycles. Besides, scanning electron microscopy images proved initially such claims under all loading conditions.
