Effect of Strain Ratio on Fatigue Model of Ultra-fine Grained Pure Titanium

The ultra-fine grained(UFG)pure titanium was prepared by equal channel angular pressing(ECAP)and rotary swaging(RS).The strain controlled low cycle fatigue(LCF)test was carried out at room temperature.The fatigue life prediction model and mean stress relaxation model under asymmetrical stress load were discussed.The results show that the strain ratio has a significant effect on the low cycle fatigue performance of the UFG pure titanium,and the traditional Manson-coffin model can not accurately predict the fatigue life under asymmetric stress load.Therefore,the SWT mean stress correction model and three-parameter power curve model are proposed,and the test results are verified.The final research shows that the threeparameter power surface model has better representation.By studying the mean stress relaxation phenomenon under the condition of R≠-1,it is revealed that the stress ratio and the strain amplitude are the factors that significantly afiect the mean stress relaxation rate,and the mean stress relaxation model with the two variables is calculated to describe the mean stress relaxation phenomenon of the UFG pure titanium under different strain ratios.The fracture morphology of the samples was observed by SEM,and it was concluded that the final fracture zone of the fatigue fracture of the UFG pure titanium was a mixture of ductile fracture and quasi cleavage fracture.The toughness of the material increases with the increase of strain ratio at the same strain amplitude.

Effect of inclusion size on the high cycle fatigue strength and failure mode of a high V alloyed powder metallurgy tool steel

The fatigue strength of a high V alloyed powder metallurgy tool steel with two different inclusion size levels, tempered at different temperatures, was investigated by a series of high cycle fatigue tests. It was shown that brittle inclusions with large sizes above 30μm prompted the occurrence of subsurface crack initiation and the reduction in fatigue strength. The fracture toughness and the stress amplitude both exerted a significant influence on the fish-eye size. A larger fish-eye area would form in the sample with a higher fracture toughness subjected to a lower stress amplitude. The stress intensity factor of the inclusion was found to lie above a typical value of the threshold stress intensity factor of 4 MPa.m^1/2. The fracture toughness of the sample with a hardness above HRC 56 could be estimated by the mean value of the stress intensity factor of the fish-eye. According to fractographic evaluation, the critical inclusion size can be calculated by linear fracture mechanics.

A fatigue damage model for asphalt mixtures under controlled-stress and controlled-strain modes

A fatigue damage model based on thermodynamics was deduced for asphalt mixtures under controlled-stress and controlled-strain modes. By employing modulus of resilience as the damage hardening variable, a damage variable related with dynamic modulus was extracted as the evaluation index. Then, the damage evolution law under two control modes was proposed, and it has a similar form to the Chaboche fatigue model with a nonnegative material parameter m related to its loading level. Experimental data of four loading levels were employed to calibrate the model and identify the parameter in both control modes. It is found that the parameter m shows an exponential relationship with its loading level. Besides, the difference of damage evolution under two control modes was explained by the law. The damage evolves from fast to slow under a controlled-strain mode. However, under a controlled-stress mode, the evolution rate is just the opposite. By using the damage equivalence principle to calculate the equivalent cycle numbers, the deduced model also interprets the difference of damage evolution under two control modes on the condition of multilevel loading. Under a controlled-strain mode, a loading sequence from a low level to a high level accelerates damage evolution. An inverse order under the controlled-stress mode can prolong fatigue life.

FATIGUE GROWTH MODELING OF MIXED-MODE CRACK IN PLANE ELASTIC MEDIA

This paper presents an extension of a displacement discontinuity method with cracktip elements （a boundary element method） proposed by the author for fatigue crack growth analysis in plane elastic media under mixed-mode conditions. The boundary element method consists of the non-singular displacement discontinuity elements presented by Crouch and Starfield and the crack-tip displacement discontinuity elements due to the author. In the boundary element implementation the left or right crack-tip element is placed locally at the corresponding left or right crack tip on top of the non-singular displacement discontinuity elements that cover the entire crack surface and the other boundaries. Crack growth is simulated with an incremental crack extension analysis based on the maximum circumferential stress criterion. In the numerical simulation, for each increment of crack extension, remeshing of existing boundaries is not required because of an intrinsic feature of the numerical approach. Crack growth is modeled by adding new boundary elements on the incremental crack extension to the previous crack boundaries. At the same time, the element characteristics of some related elements are adjusted according to the manner in which the boundary element method is implemented. As an example, the fatigue growth process of cracks emanating from a circular hole in a plane elastic plate is simulated using the numerical simulation approach.

Experimental study on mechanical properties of dowel bar embedded in concrete under fatigue loads

To investigate the mechanical properties of a dowel action under fatigue loads, nine reinforced concrete specimens were fabricated, and the monotonic and fatigue loadings were performed on these specimens, respectively. All of these specimens were divided into two series. Six specimens in SeriesⅠwith different bar diameters of 12, 20 and 25 mm were subjected to monotonic loads and were used to confirm the ultimate bearing capacity. The remaining three specimens in Series Ⅱ were subjected to fatigue loads and were designed to investigate the attenuation character of dowel action and the fatigue failure modes. The test results show that the accumulated fatigue damage due to fatigue loads can reduce the ultimate bearing capacity of specimens. With the increase in fatigue loads, the failure mode can transform to fatigue rupture of the dowel bar under the serviceability loading state,i. e. 55% of the monotonic capacity. The fatigue life is determined by the fatigue properties of steel and concrete.Based on the test data, the failure process of dowel action can be divided into two stages： the accumulation of fatigue damage and the fatigue rupture of dowel bar.

Residual Fatigue Life Prediction of Ball Bearings Based on Paris Law and RMS

Paris law can reflect the failure mechanism of materials and is usually used to be a method to predict fatigue life or residual fatigue life.But the variable which can represent the health of machine is hardly measured on line.To a degree,the difficulty of on-line application restricts the scope of application of Paris law.The relationship between characteristic values of vibration signals and the variable in the Paris equation which can describe the health of machine is investigated by taking ball bearings as investigative objects.Based on 6205 deep groove ball bearings as a living example,historical lives and vibration signals are analyzed.The feasibility of describing that variable in the Paris equation by the characteristic value of vibration signals is inspected.After that vibration signals decomposed by empirical mode decomposition（EMD）,root mean square（RMS） of intrinsic mode function（IMF） involving fault characteristic frequency has a consistent trend with the diameter of flaws.Based on the trend,two improved Paris models are proposed and the scope of application of them is inspected.These two Paris Models are validated by fatigue residual life data from tests of rolling element bearings and vibration signals monitored in the process of operation of rolling element bearings.It shows that the first improved Paris Model is simple and plain and it can be easily applied in actual conditions.The trend of the fatigue residual life predicted by the second improved Paris model is close to the actual conditions and the result of the prediction is slightly greater than the truth.In conclusion,after the appearance of detectable faults,these improved models based on RMS can predict residual fatigue life on line and a new approach to predict residual fatigue life of ball bearings on line without disturbing the machine running is provided.

Overall Evaluation of the Effect of Residual Stress Induced by Shot Peening in the Improvement of Fatigue Fracture Resistance for Metallic Materials

Before 1980s,the circular suspension spring in automobile subjected to torsion fatigue load,under the cyclic normal tensile stresses,the majority of fatigue fracture occurred was in normal tensile fracture mode（NTFM）and the fracture surface was under 45°diagonal.Because there exists the interaction between the residual stresses induced by shot peening and the applied cyclic normal tensile stresses in NTFM,which represents as＂stress strengthening mechanism＂,shot peening technology could be used for improving the fatigue fracture resistance（FFR）of springs.However,since 1990s up to date,in addition to regular NTFM,the fatigue fractures occurred of peened springs from time to time are in longitudinal shear fracture mode（LSFM）or transverse shear fracture mode（TSFM）with the increase of applied cyclic shear stresses,which leads to a remarkable decrease of FFR.However,LSFM/TSFM can be avoided effectively by means of shot peening treatment again on the peened springs.The phenomena have been rarely happened before.At present there are few literatures concerning this problem.Based upon the results of force analysis of a spring,there is no interaction between the residual stresses by shot peening and the applied cyclic shear stresses in shear fracture.This;means that the effect of＂stress strengthening mechanism＂for improving the FFR of LSFM/TSFM is disappeared basically.During shot peening,however,both of residual stress and cyclic plastic deformed microstructure are induced synchronously like＂twins＂in the surface layer of a spring.It has been found for the first time by means of force analysis and experimental results that the modified microstructure in the＂twins＂as a＂structure strengthening mechanism＂can improve the FFR of LSFM/TSFM.At the same time,it is;also shown that the optimum technology of shot peening strengthening must have both＂stress strengthening mechanism＂and＂structure strengthening mechanism＂simultaneously so that the FFR of both NTFM and LSFM/TSFM can be improved by shot peening.

Low cyclic fatigue performance of concrete-filled steel tube columns

Eight concrete-filled steel tubular(CFT) columns were tested subjected to cyclic loading under constant axial load. Experimental parameters included axial compression ratio, loading sequences, and strength of concrete and steel. The seismic performance of CFT columns and failure modes were analyzed. The test results show that different axial load ratios and loading sequences have effects on the load carrying capacity, ductility and energy dissipation capacity of CFT columns, as well as the failure modes of the CFT columns. The failure pattern can be categorized into two types: local buckling failure of steel tube in compression zone, and low cycle fatigue tearing rupture failure of steel tube. The seismic behavior was evaluated through the energy index obtained from each cycle.

EFFECT OF NON-PROPORTIONAL OVERLOADING ON FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH

The effect of proportional and non-proportional overloading on mode l fatigue crack growth have been studied,and the influences of crack tip plastic zone,crack tip blunting as well as crack closure were discussed.Proportional(model I)overloading may cause more serious crack growth retardation than non-proportional(mixed mode)overloading.Therefore,for estimating the fatigue life of engineering structures to simplify a real overload which may of- ten be non-proportional as a proportional one is not always safe.

冻融雁行裂隙花岗岩单轴压缩宏细观疲劳特性试验研究

对于季冻区的岩体工程,岩石经常受到冻融和周期荷载扰动引起的耦合疲劳损伤。为了研究冻融裂隙花岗岩的疲劳开裂扩展情况,量化裂纹的损伤程度和分类类型,对冻融40次后的双裂隙花岗岩进行了3种应力振幅下的周期荷载试验。采用实时声发射和高速摄影监测技术来揭示裂纹演化,并进一步对不同的裂纹开裂类型进行分类,以帮助理解动态压裂规律,利用核磁共振测试分析裂隙花岗岩细观孔隙特征及其宏观力学特性的关系。结果表明:随着周期荷载振幅应力比的增加,双裂隙花岗岩在周期荷载“沉寂期”内的声发射计数增加;周期荷载阶段双裂隙花岗岩产生的剪切裂纹占比大于单调加载阶段,高振幅作用下岩石容易形成剪切破坏裂纹;双裂隙花岗岩声发射的最大幅值变小即大尺度破裂减少,周期荷载下岩样预制裂隙外尖端产生的向端面扩展裂纹的角度越大;双裂隙花岗岩的疲劳寿命减小,内部微裂隙扩展发育减缓,能够储存的含H流体也越少,最终表现为核磁共振T2谱面积变化率减小。

目的探讨信息-知识-信念-行为(Information-Knowledge-Attitude-Practice,IKAP)模式对乳腺癌化疗患者自我感受负担及癌因性疲乏的影响。方法选取2021年1月—2022年12月枣庄市立医院收治的82例乳腺癌患者作为研究对象,按照随机数表法分为观察组和对照组,每组41例。对照组患者实施常规干预模式,观察组患者实施IKAP干预模式,比较两组患者的自我感受负担、癌因性疲乏和生存质量改善情况。结果干预前,两组患者自我感受负担和癌因性疲乏评分比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);干预后,观察组患者自我感受负担和癌因性疲乏评分低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组患者生存质量5个评分均高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论IKAP模式能缓解乳腺癌化疗患者负性情绪,降低患者自我感受负担和癌因性疲乏,提高患者生活质量。

熔焊缺陷对镍基高温合金GH4065A疲劳行为的影响

采用SEM和EBSD显微分析手段研究镍基变形高温合金GH4065A熔焊焊点的缺欠组织,并对比研究无焊点、有密排焊点和疏散排布焊点3种GH4065A带中孔薄板试样分别在低周和低高周复合疲劳载荷下的寿命差异和断裂方式差异。结果表明:焊点组织中存在未熔合孔洞、凝固裂纹和液化裂纹,是导致含焊点试样低周和低高周复合疲劳寿命大幅下降的主要熔焊缺陷。这些熔焊缺陷的存在使得疲劳裂纹从无焊点试样的中孔内表面处转为在焊点处优先形成,导致700℃/700 MPa低周疲劳寿命的下降幅度可达44%~83%。在600℃和700℃低高周复合载荷(静应力700 MPa+动应力100 MPa)下,熔焊缺陷不仅使得裂纹源从中孔内表面处转为在焊点处优先形成,也改变了裂纹扩展方式,增大了沿晶扩展倾向。这使得低高周复合疲劳寿命在两种温度下均大幅下降超过85%。由于密排焊点因距离中孔结构更近,密排焊点试样低周疲劳寿命低于疏散排布焊点试样,但这种焊点情况差异对低高周复合疲劳寿命的影响不大。

司机操纵模式对岸桥起重机小车轨道疲劳寿命的影响研究

锈蚀钢筋混凝土T梁的疲劳性能试验

为探明我国早期建造的公路钢筋混凝土T梁桥纵筋锈蚀后的疲劳性能,加工制作10根实际锈蚀率在4.12%~13.72%之间的钢筋混凝土T梁试件,对其开展疲劳应力比在0.25~0.67范围内的疲劳试验。试验结果表明:轻度锈蚀T梁试件的挠度、弯曲裂缝宽度和材料应变均呈现明显的前期快速发展-中期稳定变化-后期迅速增长的“三阶段发展”特征,疲劳破坏一般以弯曲裂缝超限为标志;中度或重度锈蚀T梁试件承受应力比小于0.30左右的疲劳荷载作用时,前者中期平稳发展阶段基本消失,后者甚至会发生低周疲劳破坏;当应力比不超过0.31时,中度和重度锈蚀试件相比轻度锈蚀试件的疲劳寿命分别减小了约48%和71%;当应力比从0.66减小到0.31时,中度和重度锈蚀试件的疲劳寿命分别减小了约85%和90%。由于中度或重度锈蚀的公路钢筋混凝土T梁的实际疲劳寿命远低于200万次的设计疲劳寿命,故设计和运维中应采取措施减小主筋锈蚀率及疲劳应力幅值。

12 mm厚TC4钛合金激光-MIG复合焊接头疲劳裂纹扩展行为研究

为探究12 mm厚TC4钛合金激光-MIG复合焊接头在不同区域的疲劳裂纹扩展行为,并分析微观组织与裂纹扩展之间的相互作用。利用体式显微镜、相显微镜、扫描电子显微镜和电子背散射衍射技术分别对接头不同部位的裂纹扩展速率,裂纹扩展路径的变化,接头不同区域的显微组织与裂纹扩展的交互作用和裂纹尖端周边组织的变形特征进行了深入探究。结果表明,在裂纹稳定扩展阶段,母材区域的裂纹扩展速率最大,分别是热影响区和焊缝区域裂纹扩展速率的1.16倍和1.81倍。当ΔK=20 MPa·m^(1/2),母材裂纹扩展速率为3.39×10^(-4)mm/cycle。裂纹尖端的IPF图表明,在焊缝区中存在的50°~70°的大角度晶界占比为36.36%,高于母材的11.91%和热影响区的11.65%,大角度晶界的存在使裂纹沿晶界偏转或消耗更多能量穿过晶界,增大裂纹扩展阻力,表现出较好的裂纹扩展抗性。母材和热影响区表现出沿晶脆性断裂和韧性断裂的混合断裂模式,而焊缝区主要呈韧性断裂模式。此外,EBSD分析结果表明,焊缝区裂纹尖端附近具有更高的几何位错密度,位错在马氏体边界聚集,导致裂纹沿晶界发生偏转,进一步阻碍了裂纹的扩展。施密特因子分析也表明,焊缝区组织间的取向差差异较大,导致其裂纹扩展门槛值较高。综上,焊缝区中存在的大量大角度晶界和高位错密度是焊缝区具有较高裂纹扩展抗性的主要原因。
