چکیده

In the framework of crack number density analysis, a theoretical investigation is carried out on the relationship between the statistical characteristics of fatigue initiation life and the stochastic growth of short fatigue cracks. The numerical results indicate that, compared with the influence of grain boundary resistance, the effect of the degree of randomness of crystallographic crack growth is only secondary. q 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Side Effects of Shot Peening on Fatigue Crack Initiation Life

Shot peening beneficial effects on fatigue life of mechanical components are well known. However, there are some reports in the literature that indicate inappropriate shot peening parameters tend to reduce the fatigue life. It is therefore, the purpose of this study to find a logical quantitative justification for these observations. Using finite element method, a dynamic elastic-plastic simula...

Effects of microstructures on fatigue crack initiation and short crack propagation at room temperature in an advanced disc superalloy

Fatigue crack initiation and early short crack propagation behaviour in two microstructural variants of a recently developed Low Solvus, High Refractory (LSHR) disc superalloy at room temperature has been investigated by three-point bending with replication procedure. The results shows that fine gained (FG) LSHR possesses higher fatigue life due to its better crack initiation resistance, limite...

Effects of Partial Recrystallization on High-Cycle Fatigue Deformation and Crack Generation of a Nitrogen-Strengthened 32Mn-7Cr Austenitic Steel at Liquid-Nitrogen Temperature

To achieve higher fatigue resistance against subsurface crack generation, both the refinement of grain structure and the introduction of mobile dislocations on various slip systems have been shown to be effective in the 32Mn-7Cr austenitic steel. A novel treatment which consisted of cold grooved rolling and partial recrystallization was introduced to modify the microstructure. High-cycle fatigu...

Effects of Microstructure on Room Temperature Fatigue Crack Initiation and Short Crack Propagation in Udimet

An assessment of the effects of microstructure on room temperature fatigue crack initiation and short crack propagation in a Ni-base superalloy is presented. The assessment was carried out on microstructural variants of U720Li, including as-received U720Li, U720Li-LG (large grain variant) and U720Li-LP (large intragranular coherent γ′ variant). Fatigue tests were carried out at room temperature...

High-Cycle Fatigue of Nickel-Based Superalloy ME3 at Ambient and Elevated Temperatures: Role of Grain-Boundary Engineering

High-cycle fatigue (HCF), involving the premature initiation and/or rapid propagation of cracks to failure due to high-frequency cyclic loading, remains a principal cause of failures in gas-turbine propulsion systems. In this work, we explore the feasibility of using “grain-boundary engineering” as a means to enhance the microstructural resistance to HCF. Specifically, sequential thermomechanic...
