Fatigue behavior and damage modeling of SCS-6/titanium/titanium aluminide hybrid laminated composite
نویسندگان
چکیده
The fatigue behavior of the unnotched and notched silicon carbide fiber-reinforced titanium/titanium aluminide hybrid laminated composite was investigated at room temperature. The evolution of microstructural damage and its effect on stiffness and strength degradation was quantified as a function of loading cycles and applied stress levels. Fatigue crack propagation behavior and damage mechanisms in both the crack divider and crack arrester orientations were investigated. Micromechanical models coupled with computer simulation were used to predict the fatigue damage evolution, property degradation and fatigue life. Microstructural design to optimize the fatigue properties of a fiber-reinforced ductile/brittle laminated composite is also discussed. © 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.

TiC-Ti-Al mixed powders and TC4 titanium alloy foils were overlapped layer-by-layer in the graphite die. The TC4-based laminated composite sheets reinforced by Ti aluminide and carbide were successfully fabricated via spark plasma sintering (SPS) at 1100 °C with a well-bonded interface. The composite layers were mainly composed of TiAl, Ti₃Al, Ti₂AlC, and Ti₃AlC₂ phases. The carbides particles ...

Abstract: titanium sheets in pure molten aluminum at 750 and X-Ray Diffraction Analysis results, TiAlintermetallic layer thickness increases slowly at primary stages. After that an enhanced growth rate occurs due to layercracking and disruption. Presumably, reaction starts with solving titanium into the molten aluminum causing intitanium super saturation and TiAlintermetallic layer which conseq...
