Book Fatigue of Beta Processed and Beta Heat treated Titanium Alloys

Download or read book Fatigue of Beta Processed and Beta Heat treated Titanium Alloys written by Russell Wanhill and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-28 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication reviews most of the available literature on the fatigue properties of β annealed Ti-6Al-4V and titanium alloys with similar microstructures. The focus is on β processed and β heat-treated alloys because β annealed Ti-6Al-4V has been selected for highly loaded and fatigue-critical structures, including the main wing-carry-through bulkheads and vertical tail stubs, of advanced high-performance military aircraft. An important aspect of the review is a concise survey of fatigue life assessment methods and the required types of fatigue data. This survey provides the background to recommendations for further research, especially on the fatigue behaviour of β annealed Ti-6Al-4V under realistic fatigue load histories, including the essential topic of short/small fatigue crack growth. Such research is required for independent fatigue life assessments that conform to the aircraft manufacturer’s design requirements, and also for life reassessments that most probably will have to be made during the service life of the aircraft.

Book Fatigue Sensitivity to Small Defects of a Gamma Titanium Aluminide Alloy

Download or read book Fatigue Sensitivity to Small Defects of a Gamma Titanium Aluminide Alloy written by Mauro Filippini and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fatigue properties of a Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb alloy obtained by electron-beam melting (EBM) with a patented process has been examined by conducting high cycle fatigue tests performed at different R ratios at room temperature. Fatigue-crack propagation tests have been performed for the purpose of characterizing the fatigue-crack growth rate and threshold of the material. Additionally, specimens with artificially introduced defects have been fatigue tested with the objective of studying the growth behavior of small cracks. Artificial defects with different sizes have been generated in the gauge section of the specimens by electron-discharge machining (EDM). After EDM defects are produced, the specimens are pre-cracked in cyclic compression, so that small cracks can be generated at the root of the EDM starter defects. Fatigue tests are conducted by applying the staircase technique with the number of cycles of censored test (runout) fixed at 107 cycles. By employing the Murakami model for the calculation of the range of stress intensity factor, the threshold stress intensity factor range dependence on the loading ratio R and on the defect size is evaluated, highlighting the relevant parameters that govern the specific mechanisms of failure of the novel ?-TiAl alloy studied in the present work.

Book A Study of Microstructure  Tensile Deformation  Cyclic Fatigue and Final Fracture Behavior of Commercially Pure Titanium and a Titanium Alloy

Download or read book A Study of Microstructure Tensile Deformation Cyclic Fatigue and Final Fracture Behavior of Commercially Pure Titanium and a Titanium Alloy written by Udaykar Bathini and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid industrial growth and advances in the domains of engineering and related technologies during the last fifty years have led to the extensive use of traditional metals and their alloy counterparts. Titanium is one such metal which has gained wide popularity in the aerospace and defense related applications owing to a wide range of impressive mechanical properties like excellent specific strength ([sigma]UTS/[rho]), stiffness, corrosion and erosion resistance, fracture toughness and capability to withstand significant temperature variations. Two materials, namely commercial purity titanium (Grade 2), referred to henceforth as Ti-CP (Grade 2) and the "work-horse" alloy Ti-6Al-4V have been chosen for this research study. The intrinsic influence of material composition and test specimen orientation on the tensile and fatigue behavior for both Ti-CP (Grade 2) and Ti-6Al-4V have been discussed. Samples of both Ti-CP (Grade 2) and Ti-6Al-4V were prepared from the as-provided plate stock along both the longitudinal and transverse orientations. The specimens were then deformed to failure in uniaxial tension for the tensile tests and cyclically deformed at different values of maximum stress at constant load ratio of 0.1 for the high cycle fatigue tests. The microstructure, tensile properties, resultant fracture behavior of the two materials is presented in the light of results obtained from the uniaxial tensile tests. The conjoint influence of intrinsic microstructural features, nature of loading and specimen properties on the tensile properties is discussed. Also, the macroscopic fracture mode, the intrinsic features on the fatigue fracture surface and the role of applied stress-microstructural feature interactions in governing failure for the cyclic fatigue properties for both the materials under study Ti-CP (Grade 2) and the "work-horse" alloy Ti-6Al-4V have been discussed in detail. Careful study of the microstructure for Ti-CP (Grade 2) material at a low magnification revealed the primary alpha grains to be intermingled with small pockets of beta grains. Observation at the higher allowable magnifications of the optical microscope revealed very fine alpha phase lamellae located within the beta grain. The microhardness and macrohardness measurements were consistent through the sheet specimen for Ti-CP (Grade 2) and slightly lower compared to Ti-6Al-4V. However, the macrohardness was marginally higher than the microhardness resulting from the presence of a large volume fraction of the soft alpha phase. The hardness values when plotted reveal marginal spatial variability. Tensile fracture of Ti-CP (Grade 2) was at an inclination to the far field tensile stress axis for both longitudinal and transverse orientations. The overload region revealed a combination of fine microscopic cracks, microscopic voids of varying size and randomly distributed through the surface, and a large population of shallow dimples, features reminiscent of locally brittle and ductile failure mechanisms. The maximum stress ([sigma]maximum) versus fatigue life (Nf) characteristics shown by this material is quite different from those non-ferrous metals that exhibit a well-defined endurance limit. When compared at equal values of maximum stress at a load ratio of 0.1, the fatigue life of the transverse specimen is noticeably greater than the longitudinal counterpart. At equivalent values of maximum elastic strain, the transverse specimens revealed noticeably improved fatigue life as compared one-on-one to the longitudinal counterparts. Careful observations of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy microstructure over a range of magnifications spanning very low to high magnification revealed a duplex microstructure consisting of the near equiaxed alpha and transformed beta phases. The primary near equiaxed shaped alpha grains (light in color) was well distributed in a lamellar matrix with transformed beta (dark in color). The microhardness and macrohardness values recorded for the Ti-6Al-4V alloy reveal it to be harder than the commercially pure (Grade 2) material. However, for the Ti-6Al-4V alloy the microhardness is noticeably higher than the corresponding macrohardness value that can be ascribed to the presence of a population of processing-related artifacts and the hard beta-phase. Tensile fracture of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy was macroscopically rough and essentially normal to the far field stress axis for the longitudinal orientation and cup-and-cone morphology for the transverse orientation. However, microscopically, the surface was rough and covered with a population of macroscopic and fine microscopic cracks, voids of varying size, a population of shallow dimples of varying size and shape, features reminiscent of locally brittle and ductile failure mechanisms. When compared at equal values of maximum stress at a load ratio of 0.1, there is a marginal to no influence of microstructure on high cycle fatigue life of both orientations of the alloy.

Book Effect of Microstructures on Low Cycle Fatigue Behavior in a TC6  Ti 6AI 2 5Mo 2Cr 0 5Fe 0 3Si  Titanium Alloy

Download or read book Effect of Microstructures on Low Cycle Fatigue Behavior in a TC6 Ti 6AI 2 5Mo 2Cr 0 5Fe 0 3Si Titanium Alloy written by Zhang SQ and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of an investigation on the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior, at room temperature and 400°C for four conventional microstructures (Widmannstatten, basket-weave, equiaxed, and duplex) in a TC6 titanium alloy are presented. The fatigue crack nucleation and propagation in fatigue-tested specimens have been observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The duplex microstructure is associated with the longest LCF life at room temperature and 400°C, while the Widmannstatten microstructure has the shortest. The crack initiation sites and propagation paths were examined and discussed. The cracks primarily initiated along slip bands on the specimen surface for all four microstructures. In addition, many voids appeared along slip bands for the equiaxed microstructure. By linking-up these voids, the formation of microcracks is realized. The propagation of interior cracks in specimens with Widmannstatten structure proceeded by cross-cutting W? platelets by way of a plastic blunting mechanism, whereas for the equiaxed microstructure interior cracks grew by the linking-up of voids by way of a renucleation mechanism.
