The effect of titanium content and titanium alloying methods on LCF behavior is analyzed with plastic strain energy density. The results show that all alloys exhibit the cyclic hardening behavior. Raising Ti content can obviously increase the cyclic hardening ability. But the effect of Ti alloying method isn't distinct. Whether for the EA356 alloys or for MA356 alloys, the alloys with low titanium content have longer low-cycle fatigue life than that of the alloys with high titanium content. This is because that the alloys with low titanium content can consume higher cyclic plastic strain energy during cyclic deformation compared with alloys with high titanium content.展开更多

The change of appearances and the crystallite sizes of powders before and after high energy ball milling were investigated by XRD, TOPAS P software, SEM and EDS. The results show that the nano-crystalline pre-alloyed powders can be fabricated by 5 h high energy ball milling. During the MA process, the diffusion of W, Ni and Fe happens in the process of repeated welding and fracturing. As a result, nano-crystalline supersaturated solid solutions are formed. The crystallite sizes won't be refined after 10 h ball milling. The crystallite sizes of different compositions are almost the same under the same MA condition. Due to the toughening mechanism of rare earth element, the powders of 90W-4Ni-2Fe-3.8Mo-0.2RE alloy are seriously agglomerated after ball milling compared with the other alloys. It can be concluded that the optimal sintering temperature of 90W-4Ni-2Fe-3.8Mo-0.2RE pre-alloyed powders after 15 h mechanical alloying is 1 300-1 350 ℃.展开更多

However, the orientation-dependent LCF life model withprecise mechanisms and strong applicability is still lacking. This investigation aims at establishing an energy-based LCF life evaluation method that could consider the orientation effect. First,the influencing factors of anisotropy were identified through the literature review. Secondly, themultiaxial formula of the Ramberg-Osgood (ReO) equation was established to describe theanisotropic cyclic deformation characteristics. Furthermore, the strain energy density of SC superalloys was determined based on this equation, and the effective strain energy density wasintroduced to account for the effect of orientation. Finally, the energy-based method was validated by its application to several SC superalloys. Results showed that the crystallographicorientation with a lower Young’s modulus usually exhibits better LCF resistance. This phenomenon could be attributed to the different values of strain energy density dissipated in one cycle.The multiaxial ReO relationship could capture the anisotropic cyclic deformation response ofDD6. Compared with the classical methods, the energy-based model is favored by its precisemechanism and strong applicability. And it also exhibited better prediction accuracy. Most datapoints of different crystallographic orientations lay within the 3 error band.展开更多

The test program considered the following secondary reinforcements: 1) traditional welded-wire steel mesh, 2) steel fiber and 3) poly composite fiber. To estimate the extent to which crushing of floor slab materials would help absorb energy, a series of concrete penetration tests employing patch loading was undertaken on scaled down model slabs. Each concrete-secondary reinforcement combination considered slabs of 50 mm in depth with square plan dimensions ranging from 50 to 500 mm, resulting in a total of 30 test specimens. The first part of the paper discusses the test specimens, the test setup, and the test procedure. The second part of the paper presents the experimental results and establishes the energy absorption of different concrete- secondary reinforcement combinations. Sieve analysis results of the crushed specimens were used to derive a "work index" value that relates the pulverized particle size distributions to energy inputs. The work index values of concrete-secondary reinforcement systems can be used to assess the energy dissipation potential associated with such floor slabs in buildings undergoing progressive collapse. The results indicate that floors with secondary reinforcements could play an important role in helping arrest global progressive collapse.展开更多
