Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Majority of industrial components fail due to the conjoint actions of fatigue and corrosion. All fatigue failures including one in air can be categorized as corrosion fatigue. Absolute fatigue can take place only in vacuum or inert environment. The effect of corrosion on fatigue has been extensively studied by determining the stress vs. number of cycles (S-N) curve. S-N curve depicts the final fracture, it does not separate the crack initiation and crack propagation. The defect tolerant design based on fracture mechanics concepts assumes that some forms of defects are already present in the materials and a considerable life in spent in crack propagation before the final fracture. Measure of resistance of a material to crack growth (fracture toughness) then becomes extremely important. It is now possible to describe material property of fracture toughness in terms of applied intensity of stress near the crack tip (K). Fracture mechanics based on elastic material behavior (absence of significant yielding) , referred to as the linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) is well suited to materials which have limited ductility. The stress intensity factor (K ) is used both for conditions of static loading (Stress Corrosion Cracking) and for the moving cracks during fatigue loading . In this book the results of corrosion fatigue crack growth on 7075 - Alclad alloy are presented. This alloy is widely used in aircraft and automobile industries. Corrosion resistance is obtained by cladding with a more corrosion resistant aluminum alloy. However, the corrosion protection system may undergo rupture especially during crack growth in the underlying metal. Environment will then play a dominant role in the crack growth process. The design of reliable aircraft structures requires provision that cracks do not propagate under cyclic loading to reach a critical size resulting in fracture. The understanding of crack propagation under the conjoint action of corrosion and fatigue is thus of great technological and economic significance. Conflicting observations have been reported in literature regarding the influence of microstructure and environmental variables on the corrosion crack propagation rates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fracture and 'slow' crack growth reflect the response of a material (i.e. its microstructure) to the conjoint actions of mechanical and chemical driving forces and are affected by temperature. There is therefore a need for quantitative understanding and modeling of the influences of chemical and thermal environments and of microstructure, in terms of the key internal and external variables, and for their incorporation into design and probabilistic implications. This text, which the author has used in a fracture mechanics course for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, is based on the work of the author's Lehigh University team whose integrative research combined fracture mechanics, surface and electrochemistry, materials science, and probability and statistics to address a range of fracture safety and durability issues on aluminum, ferrous, nickel, and titanium alloys and ceramics. Examples are included to highlight the approach and applicability of the findings in practical durability and reliability problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanics of Fatigue addresses the range of topics concerning damage, fatigue, and fracture of engineering materials and structures. The core of this resource builds upon the synthesis of micro- and macro-mechanics of fracture. In micromechanics, both the modeling of mechanical phenomena on the level of material structure and the continuous approach are based on the use of certain internal field parameters characterizing the dispersed micro-damage. This is referred to as continuum damage mechanics. The author develops his own theory for macromechanics, called analytical fracture mechanics. This term means the system cracked body - loading or loading device - is considered as a mechanical system and the tools of analytical (rational) mechanics are applied thoroughly to describe crack propagation until the final failure. Chapter discuss: preliminary information on fatigue and engineering methods for design of machines and structures against failures caused by fatigue fatigue crack nucleation, including microstructural and continuous models theory of fatigue crack propagation fatigue crack growth in linear elastic materials subject to dispersed damage fatigue cracks in elasto-plastic material, including crack growth retardation due to overloading as well as quasistationary approximation fatigue and related phenomena in hereditary solids application of the theory fatigue crack growth considering environmental factors unidirectional fiber composites with ductile matrix and brittle, initially continuous fibers laminate composites Mechanics of Fatigue serves students dealing with mechanical aspects of fatigue, conducting research in fracture mechanics, structural safety, mechanics of composites, as well as modern branches of mechanics of solids and structures.

Download or read book Fatigue and Corrosion in Metals written by Pietro Paolo Milella and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-05 with total page 853 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook, suitable for students, researchers and engineers, gathers the experience of more than 20 years of teaching fracture mechanics, fatigue and corrosion to professional engineers and running experimental tests and verifications to solve practical problems in engineering applications. As such, it is a comprehensive blend of fundamental knowledge and technical tools to address the issues of fatigue and corrosion. The book initiates with a systematic description of fatigue from a phenomenological point of view, since the early signs of submicroscopic damage in few surface grains and continues describing, step by step, how these precursors develop to become mechanically small cracks and, eventually, macrocracks whose growth is governed by fracture mechanics. But fracture mechanics is also introduced to analyze stress corrosion and corrosion assisted fatigue in a rather advanced fashion. The author dedicates a particular attention to corrosion starting with an electrochemical treatment that mechanical engineers with a rather limited knowledge of electrochemistry will well digest without any pain. The electrochemical introduction is considered an essential requirement to the full understanding of corrosion that is essentially an electrochemical process. All stress corrosion aspects are treated, from the generalized film rupture-anodic dissolution process that is the base of any corrosion mechanism to the aggression occurring in either mechanically or thermally sensitized alloys up to the universe of hydrogen embrittlement, which is described in all its possible modes of appearance. Multiaxial fatigue and out-of-phase loading conditions are treated in a rather comprehensive manner together with damage progression and accumulation that are not linear processes. Load spectra are analyzed also in the frequency domain using the Fourier transform in a rather elegant fashion full of applications that are generally not considered at all in fatigue textbooks, yet they deserve a special place and attention. The issue of fatigue cannot be treated without a probabilistic approach unless the designer accepts the shame of one-out-of-two pieces failure. The reader is fully introduced to the most promising and advanced analytical tools that do not require a normal or lognormal distribution of the experimental data, which is the most common case in fatigue. But the probabilistic approach is also used to introduce the fundamental issue of process volume that is the base of any engineering application of fatigue, from the probability of failure to the notch effect, from the metallurgical variability and size effect to the load type effect. Fractography plays a fundamental role in the post mortem analysis of fatigue and corrosion failures since it can unveil the mystery encrypted in any failure.
