V-bending test was performed to understand better the fracture of coating layer of GA steel sheet during plastic deformation. Yield strength of the coating layer was calculated by using a relative difference between hardness of coating layer measured from the nano-indentation test and that of substrate. To measure shearing strength at the interface between substrate and coating layer, shearing test with two specimens attached by an adhesive was carried out. Using the mechanical properties measured, a series of finite element analyses coupled with a failure model was performed. Results reveal that the fracture of coating layer occurs in an irregular manner at the region where compressive deformation is dominant. Meanwhile, a series of vertical cracks perpendicular to material surface are observed at the tensile stressed-region. It is found that 0.26-0.28 of local equivalent plastic strain exists at the coating and substrate at the beginning of failure. The fracture of coating layer depends on ductility of the coating layer considerably as well.展开更多

By adopting the Fourier transform method and introducing the crack opening displacement function, the boundary value problem is simplified for numerically solving a system of Cauchy-type singular integral equations by means of Jacobi polynomial expansion. The stress intensity factors and the crack opening displacements are defined in terms of the integral equations solutions. The influence of the dimensionless wave number and the ratio of crack length to layer thickness on the stress intensity factors and crack opening displacements are discussed.展开更多

Firstly, a cohesive zone model in conjunction with a Maxwell element in parallel, or with a Kelvin element in series, respectively, is employed to describe the characteristics of viscoelasticity for the adhesive layer. The models can be implemented into the implicit finite element code. Next, the parametric study shows that the in- fluences of loading rates on the cohesive zone energy and strength are quite different for different models. Finally, a sandwich double cantilever beam model is adopted to simulate the interface crack growth between the face sheet and core. Numerical examples are presented for various loading rates to demonstrate the efficacy of the rate-dependent cohesive models.展开更多

A grooved modified three-point bending specimen that can generate a single interface crack to facilitate the control of crack growth was adopted for testing, which was conducted at the ambient temperature of 100 °C. The morphology and composition of fractured surfaces were examined by means of a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and an energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS). Images and spectrum show that cracks are initiated and propagated exclusively within YSZ layer adjacent to top/bond coat interface. The load-displacement curves obtained exhibit similar shapes that indicate two distinct stages in crack initiation and stable crack growth. Finite element analyses were performed to extract the adhesion strength of the TBCs. The delamination toughness of the plasma-sprayed 8YSZ coatings at 100 °C, in terms of critical strain energy release rate Gc, can be reliably obtained from an analytical solution.展开更多
