Book Crack Growth Behavior of Aluminum Alloys Tested in Liquid Mercury

Download or read book Crack Growth Behavior of Aluminum Alloys Tested in Liquid Mercury written by J. A. Kapp and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crack growth rate measurements have been made in three mercury embrittled aluminum alloys each under three loading conditions. The alloys were 1100-0, 6061-T651, and 7075-T651. The loading conditions were fixed displacement static loading, fixed load static loading, and fatigue loading at two frequencies. The results showed that mercury cracking of aluminum was not unlike other types of embrittlement (i.e hydrogen cracking of steels). Under fixed load static conditions no crack growth was observed below a threshold stress intensity factor (KILME). At K levels greater that KILME cracks grew on the order of cm/s, while under fixed displacement loading, the crack growth rate was strongly dependent upon the strength of the alloy tested. This was attributed to crack closure. In the fatigue tests, no enhanced crack growth occurred until a critical range of stress intensity factor (Kth) was achieved. The Kth agreed well with the KILME obtained from the static tests, but the magnitude of the fatigue growth rate was substantially less than was expected based on the static loading results. Observations of the fracture surfaces in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) suggested a brittle intergranular fracture mode for the 6061-T651 and the 7075-T651 alloys under all loading conditions. The fractographic features of the 1100-0 alloy under fixed load and fatigue loading conditions were also brittle intergranular. Under fixed displacement loading the cracks grew via a ductile intergranular mode.

Book Crack Growth in Mercury Embrittled Aluminum Alloys Under Cyclic and Static Loading Conditions

Download or read book Crack Growth in Mercury Embrittled Aluminum Alloys Under Cyclic and Static Loading Conditions written by Joseph A. Kapp and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crack growth rates were measured on three aluminum alloys under cyclic and static loading conditions in laboratory air and in liquid mercury at about +25 deg C. One alloy, 6061-T651, was tested under both loading conditions at temperatures ranging from -25 deg C to +45 deg C. Fracture mechanics techniques were used. Under cyclic loading conditions, no enhanced crack growth in mercury was measured until a critical stress intensity factor range (Delta K) was exceeded. When Delta K increased above the threshold value, the crack growth rae increased by as much as three orders of magnitude, when compared to the crack growth rate in air. From the appearance of the fracture surface the mechanism of embrittlement was deduced to be reduced cohesion. Under static loading conditions, crack velocities of centimeters per second were measured in load control. Under displacement control much slower crack velocities were measured in tow alloys. The decrease in crack velocity was attributed to crack blunting and large plastic zones. Static crack velocity and cyclic crack growth rate increased with decreasing temperature. This unusual temperature effect was related to the kinetics of adsorption of mercury on aluminum. (Author).

Book Stress corrosion Cracking of Aluminum Alloys

Download or read book Stress corrosion Cracking of Aluminum Alloys written by F. H. Haynie and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report deals with the stress-corrosion cracking of aluminum alloys, and it represents an effort by DMIC to expand on the information contained in DMIC Memorandum 202, 'Stress-Corrosion Cracking of Aluminum Alloys', dated February 15, 1965. DMIC Report 228 begins by presenting a comprehensive definition of stress-corrosion cracking. This is followed by sections dealing with (1) the historical development and growth in awareness of the problem, (2) the mechanisms involved, and (3) the theory of stress-corrosion cracking. A section on experimental techniques is presented. These techniques include test methods used to determine the susceptibility of alloys to stress-corrosion cracking, as well as more refined methods of studying the fundamental mechanisms of the problem. Different evaluation methods, applicable to obtaining the different objectives of stress-corrosion testing, are also presented. All of the foregoing serve as background to the sections on stress-corrosion-cracking behavior of aluminum alloys and preventive measures. (Author).
