This book was released on 2006 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fracture toughness and tensile properties of Alloy 718 were measured at quasi-static and dynamic loading rates for two different heat treatments and two product forms. Two different methods for conducting the dynamic tests were investigated; one involving interrupted tests and the other utilizing a single impact. The interrupted test method used multiple impacts with displacement limits to enable measurement of crack lengths at intermediate points. The normalization method was used to generate tearing resistance curves for the dynamic tests following the guidelines in ASTM Standard Test Method for measurement of Fracture Toughness (E 1820). The analysis pointed out the importance of obtaining a good measurement of load, displacement, and crack length at the point of maximum displacement (the anchor point). As the amount of ductile crack extension increased, the uncertainty in the plasticity function fit also increased. Methods to improve the fit were investigated, including the addition of anchor points from multiple tests, and use of a tangency point to estimate initiation. The resulting curves are compared to ascertain the variability obtained from nominally identical specimens, and to evaluate the effect of loading rate on the plasticity function. The normalization tearing resistance curves are compared with curves generated from the interrupted tests using compliance measurements during unloads to determine crack extension. Good agreement was obtained between the two methods of measuring tearing resistance, thereby validating the normalization analysis. The tests showed that multiple impacts drive down the tearing resistance, which may be significant in applications where a dynamic event causes load fluctuation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined fracture behavior of two HY-100 under-matched welds under dynamic loading. A new test fixture that provided greater control of specimen deflection during impact testing of SE(B) specimens was developed, as was a procedure for applying the Normalization Method to the analysis of dynamic fracture toughness tests. Successful application of Normalization involved using multiple specimens with varying ductile crack growth to establish the correct form for the plasticity function. The accuracy of the measured JId was verified by comparing with multi-specimen JId values.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fracture toughness properties of structural steels of 490-MPa strength class and weld metals under dynamic loading are studied in the light of the near crack tip stress fields. The loading rate in toughness tests range from 0.1 to 500 mm/s. The near-tip stress fields are analyzed by 3D-FEM considering the strain rate effect on the flow properties of materials. Temperature rise caused by high-speed plastic deformation is also included in the FE analysis. The critical CTOD at brittle fracture initiation decreases when increasing the loading rate. This is due to the elevation of a local stress near the crack tip. The local approach is applied to the dynamic fracture toughness evaluation. It is shown that the brittle fracture resistance evaluated in terms of the Weibull stress, an integrated stress over a highly stressed region near the crack tip, is a material property independent of the loading rate. Based on the Weibull stress fracture criterion, the dynamic fracture toughness can be predicted from static toughness results. An engineering procedure to estimate the loading rate effect on the fracture toughness is also presented.

Download or read book Considering the Statistical Distribution of Dynamic Fracture Toughness Data and the Actual Loading Rate at Fracture Initiation When Applying ASTM E1921 at Elevated Loading Rates written by U. Mayer and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ASTM E1921-15a describes the determination of the reference temperature T0,X for the loading rate X for ferritic steels in the transition range, where X is the order of magnitude of the average loading rate of the tests evaluated. Because this rate is defined for the linear-elastic part of a test only, the definition of the loading rate, valid for tests showing not only linear-elastic but also plastic behavior, is important. In a research project investigating the correlation of dynamic crack initiation and crack arrest funded by the German government, tests at -20°C on specimens of 22 NiMoCr 3 7 steel (A 508 Cl.2) were performed with different specimen geometry and loading devices in the range from 105 MPa?m s-1 to 3 x 106 MPa?m s-1. Evaluation according to ASTM E1921 shows differences of up to 30 K in T0,X obtained from linear-elastic test series and T0,X obtained from elastic-plastic test series with comparable dK/dt. New results were obtained in the current follow-up joint IWM-MPA project from test series at a loading rate of 5 x 105 MPa?m s-1. Results from tests with 1T C(T)-specimen at various test temperatures in the transition region are presented, analyzed, and reference temperature T0,5 is evaluated. The statistical distribution of the determined dynamic fracture toughness values KId resp., KJc,d and the determination of the characteristic loading rate in the case of elastic-plastic tests is discussed. This analysis shows the need of modifications of the standard evaluation method in ASTM E1921, if used for tests at elevated loading rate. The assumed statistical distribution has to be adapted and the actual loading rate at fracture initiation has to be taken into account. Suggestions for the considerations and requirements for the evaluation of data determined at elevated loading rates are presented.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crack extension during fracture toughness tests of ferritic structural steels cannot be determined from measurements of unloading compliance or electric potential change when the specimen is dynamically loaded. Measurements of crack extension in fracture toughness tests are also very difficult when the test temperature is high or the test environment is aggressive. To circumvent this limitation, researchers for years have been developing key curve and normalization function methods to estimate crack extension in standard elastic-plastic fracture toughness test geometries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumented Charpy impact test has been widely used as a simple method for semi-empirically evaluating material impact toughness. The authors have developed a new instrumented Charpy impact testing system, which is called CAI (Computer Aided instrumented Charpy Impact testing) system. Using the CAI system, dynamic fracture toughness parameters such as Kd, Jd, Tmat, and various absorbed energies can be obtained from the load-deflection curve of a single precracked specimen for both ductile and brittle materials. It has been already put into practical use in Japan. This paper introduces the details of the toughness evaluation procedures in the CAI system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumented impact test requirements for impact velocity, inertial loading, time to fracture, and frequency response were developed as a part of a large testing program sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). These test procedures relied heavily on current ASTM standards plus the composite experience of investigators throughout the world. This paper provides experimental verification of the EPRI developed procedures and clarifies some of the empirical relationships used in the procedures. The material investigated was a 4340 steel (Rc52) which was relatively insensitive to loading rate. Load-time information obtained simultaneously from an instrumented tup and strain-gaged specimen was analyzed for tests performed at various impact velocities. The results indicate that the EPRI developed procedures are conservative and allow reliable fracture-toughness measurements to be made.
Download or read book Dynamic Fracture Toughness Evaluation by Measurement of CTOD Crack Tip Opening Displacement written by William N Sharpe (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantification of the dynamic fracture toughness of structural materials is essential to a wide range of problems - from nuclear accidents to ordnance applications. However, the difficulties associated with accurate measurements of cracks under dynamic loading are considerable. Thus there are no standardized procedures and few reliable results. This work describes a systematic study of the dynamic fracture toughness of SAE-01 tool steel, 4340 and HY100 steels and a tungsten, using the ISDG (Interferometric Strain/Displacement Gage) system which has very high frequency resolution. The major advantage of the method is that information is obtained very close to the crack tip, so that stress wave loading effects are accounted for. A detailed error analysis gives an uncertainty of -10% to +20% in the determination of fracture toughness, which compares with + or - 20% for published work.

Download or read book On the Determination of Dynamic Fracture Toughness Properties by Instrumented Impact Testing written by GB. Lenkey and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the engineering practice it is of importance to know the effect of loading rate on the material behaviour, e.g., on the fracture mechanics properties. One of the most widely used testing techniques for determining these properties is the instrumented impact test. Depending on the material behaviour under a given loading condition, different fracture mechanics parameters should be determined. Most of the evaluation procedures of these parameters are still not standardised for higher loading rates. So the aim of the present work was to investigate the applicability of different methods for determining dynamic fracture toughness properties. Instrumented impact experiments combining with magnetic emission measurement have been performed on pre-cracked Charpy-V specimens of E420 C and QStE 690 TM high strength steels. Critical values of stress intensity factor (KId, KJi) related to the initiation of the fracture at different temperatures have been determined Using different methods depending on the type of the fracture.
