Book A Closer Look at Effects of the Loading Rate on Fracture Toughness in the Ductile to Brittle Transition Regime of a Ferritic Steel

Download or read book A Closer Look at Effects of the Loading Rate on Fracture Toughness in the Ductile to Brittle Transition Regime of a Ferritic Steel written by Hans-Jakob Schindler and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increased loading rate causes not only a shift of the ductile-to-brittle transition curve, but also a slight change of the shape of this curve. The latter tends to become steeper as the loading rate increases. This effect was observed even at loading rates that are considered to be quasi-static according to ASTM E1921-13: Standard Test Method for Determination of Reference Temperature, T0, for Ferritic Steels in the Transition Range, Annual Book of ASTM Standards, ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA, 2013. Actually, the coefficient 0.019 in the exponent of the MC turned out to be substantially higher at elevated loading rates. This means that a basic assumption of the evaluation procedure of ASTM E1921 is not met, which leads to an increased uncertainty of T0 or T0,x, respectively. This effect of is most pronounced in testing at elevated loading rates using the single-temperature option. An improved method to determine the reference temperature is proposed, where the exponent in the median transition curve in ASTM E1921 is considered to be an open parameter. The resulting reference temperatures, denoted as T100 andT100,x, respectively, are expected to be more accurate than standard T0, which is confirmed by comparison with experimental data. Furthermore, the validity requirements for T100 are less restrictive and more suitable than those in ASTM E1921, since they do not depend on the outcome of the tests. Based on the improved data, an improved estimation formula for the rate-induced shift of T0 is derived. Suggestions are made for improvement of ASTM E1921.

Book Evaluation of Ductile to Brittle Transition Temperature by Reference Temperature  T0  Approach at Higher Loading Rates for a Mod 9Cr 1Mo Steel

Download or read book Evaluation of Ductile to Brittle Transition Temperature by Reference Temperature T0 Approach at Higher Loading Rates for a Mod 9Cr 1Mo Steel written by A. Moitra and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To evaluate the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature of ferritic-martensitic steels, the ASTM E1921-based reference temperature (T0) approach has now been widely recognized; however, until now, the standard restricts itself to static/quasi-static loading rates. It is well recognized that the flow stress of rate-sensitive material increases with the strain rate, and thus it is imperative that the increase in loading rate would lead to limited plasticity-induced brittleness, reflected in higher T0. There have been efforts in the literature for developing empirical correlations to derive T0 at higher loading rates from T0 at quasi-static loading rates or vice versa. However, there is a need to experimentally evaluate the T0 at higher loading rates, especially for the 9Cr-1Mo family of steels, proposed to be used as wrapper material in the upcoming commercial liquid-sodium-cooled fast breeder reactors in India. The present study is directed toward determining T0 for Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel at loading rates of 1.12, 3, and 5 m/s.

Book Mechanical Properties of Materials

Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Materials written by Joshua Pelleg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of mechanical behavior has been in the front line of basic studies in engineering curricula for many years. This textbook was written for engineering students with the aim of presenting, in a relatively simple manner, the basic concepts of mechanical behavior in solid materials. A second aim of the book is to guide students in their laboratory experiments by helping them to understand their observations in parallel with the lectures of their various courses; therefore the first chapter of the book is devoted to mechanical testing. Another aim of the book is to provide practicing engineers with basic help to bridge the gap of time that has passed from their graduation up to their actual involvement in engineering work. The book also serves as the basis for more advanced studies and seminars when pursuing courses on a graduate level. The content of this textbook and the topics discussed correspond to courses that are usually taught in universities and colleges all over the world, but with a different and more modern approach. It is however unique by the inclusion of an extensive chapter on mechanical behavior in the micron and submicron/nanometer range. Mechanical deformation phenomena are explained and often related to the presence of dislocations in structures. Many practical illustrations are provided representing various observations encountered in actual structures of particularly technical significance. A comprehensive list of references at the end of each chapter is included to provide a broad basis for further studying the subject.

Book Mechanical Behavior and Fracture of Engineering Materials

Download or read book Mechanical Behavior and Fracture of Engineering Materials written by Jorge Luis González-Velázquez and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the theoretical concepts of stress and strain, as well as the strengthening and fracture mechanisms of engineering materials in an accessible level for non-expert readers, but without losing scientific rigor. This volume fills the gap between the specialized books on mechanical behavior, physical metallurgy and material science and engineering books on strength of materials, structural design and materials failure. Therefore it is intended for college students and practicing engineers that are learning for the first time the mechanical behavior and failure of engineering materials or wish to deepen their understanding on these topics. The book includes specific topics seldom covered in other books, such as: how to determine a state of stress, the relation between stress definition and mechanical design, or the theory behind the methods included in industrial standards to assess defects or to determine fatigue life. The emphasis is put into the link between scientific knowledge and practical applications, including solved problems of the main topics, such as stress and strain calculation. Mohr's Circle, yield criteria, fracture mechanics, fatigue and creep life prediction. The volume covers both the original findings in the field of mechanical behavior of engineering materials, and the most recent and widely accepted theories and techniques applied to this topic. At the beginning of some selected topics that by the author's judgement are transcendental for this field of study, the prime references are given, as well as a brief biographical semblance of those who were the pioneers or original contributors. Finally, the intention of this book is to be a textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses on Mechanical Behavior, Mechanical Metallurgy and Materials Science, as well as a consulting and/or training material for practicing engineers in industry that deal with mechanical design, materials selection, material processing, structural integrity assessment, and for researchers that incursion for the first time in the topics covered in this book.

Book Strain Rate Effects on the Ductile Brittle Transition in Steels

Download or read book Strain Rate Effects on the Ductile Brittle Transition in Steels written by GA. Knorovsky and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recently implemented fracture control plan for structural steel high-way bridges makes use of a linear relation to describe the effect of strain rate on the ductile/brittle transition temperature as a function of yield strength. Literature data show that the predictions of the aforementioned relation are not general. An alternative analysis is offered along with a qualitative model for understanding the phenomenon. Results of an experimental program investigating microstructural effects on the ductile/brittle strain rate dependence are also presented. The results exhibit linear behavior of ?Tdb versus ??/?, where ?Tdb is the transition temperature shift, ? is the yield stress, and ?? is the change in yield stress caused by strain rate. The magnitude of the temperature shift, however, is dependent upon the test specimen used. Factors discussed include microstructure, type of test specimen (Charpy V-notch, nil ductility temperature [NDT], modified NDT, or compact toughness), crack initiation versus crack propagation, and implications for regulatory bodies.

It will serve as a solid introduction to the field for advanced students, and a valuable reference for those working in the development of mechanical systems and related areas.

Book Effects of Interstitial Impurities on the Low temperature Tensile Properties of Tungsten

Download or read book Effects of Interstitial Impurities on the Low temperature Tensile Properties of Tungsten written by Joseph R. Stephens and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was undertaken to determine the effects of the interstitial impurities oxygen and carbon on the mechanical properties of polycrystalline tungsten and high-purity tungsten single crystals. Results of tensile tests showed that additions of both oxygen and carbon to polycrystalline tungsten produced a marked increase in the ductile to brittle transition temperature. Oxygen and carbon produced a much smaller increase in the transition temperature of the single-crystal specimens compared with equivalent amounts of impurities in the polycrystalline specimens. Addition of oxygen to polycrystalline tungsten lowered both the ultimate tensile strength and the yield strength, but had no measurable effect on the strength properties of single-crystal specimens. Carbon additions to both polycrystalline and single-crystal specimens did not affect the ultimate tensile strength; however, a large increase in the yield strength resulted. The results suggest that oxygen embrittlement in tungsten is caused by grain-boundary segregation, while carbon embrittlement results from an interaction between carbon atoms and dislocations within the tungsten lattice.
