Book Mapping of Low Cycle Fatigue Mechanisms at Elevated Temperatures for an Austenitic Stainless Steel

Download or read book Mapping of Low Cycle Fatigue Mechanisms at Elevated Temperatures for an Austenitic Stainless Steel written by K. Kanazawa and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mapping of low cycle fatigue mechanisms at elevated temperatures is attempted for a better understanding of the elevated temperature, low cycle fatigue behavior of an austenitic stainless steel. Results of strain-controlled, uniaxial low cycle fatigue tests on a solution-treated Type 310 stainless steel were used in the analysis. The experiments were performed at 15 temperatures that ranged from room temperature to 800°C and under four strain rate conditions that ranged from 6.7 x 10-3 s-1 to 6.7 x 10-6 s-1. Modes of variation, both in stress amplitude and in fatigue life, are classified and plotted against temperature-strain rate coordinates. By superposing the two maps, one can easily find the principal factors that govern the fatigue life for any given conditions of temperature and strain rate. The proposed idea of mapping is believed to have wide applicability (e.g., for selecting materials and predicting fatigue behavior under service conditions).

Book High Temperature Fatigue Behaviour of Austenitic Stainless Steel

Download or read book High Temperature Fatigue Behaviour of Austenitic Stainless Steel written by Hugo Wärner and published by Linköping University Electronic Press. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global energy consumption is increasing and together with global warming from greenhouse gas emission, create the need for more environmental friendly energy production processes. Higher efficiency of biomass power plants can be achieved by increasing temperature and pressure in the boiler section and this would increase the generation of electricity along with the reduction in emission of greenhouse gases e.g. CO2. The power generation must also be flexible to be able to follow the demands of the energy market, this results in a need for cyclic operating conditions with alternating output and multiple start-ups and shut-downs. Because of the demands of flexibility, higher temperature and higher pressure in the boiler section of future biomass power plants, the demands on improved mechanical properties of the materials of these components are also increased. Properties like creep strength, thermomechanical fatigue resistance and high temperature corrosion resistance are critical for materials used in the next generation biomass power plants. Austenitic stainless steels are known to possess such good high temperature properties and are relatively cheap compared to the nickel-base alloys, which are already operating at high temperature cyclic conditions in other applications. The behaviour of austenitic stainless steels during these widened operating conditions are not yet fully understood. The aim of this licentiate thesis is to increase the knowledge of the mechanical behaviour at high temperature cyclic conditions for austenitic stainless steels. This is done by the use of thermomechanical fatigue- and creepfatigue testing at elevated temperatures. For safety reasons, the effect of prolonged service degradation is investigated by pre-ageing before mechanical testing. Microscopy is used to investigate the microstructural development and resulting damage behaviour of the austenitic stainless steels after testing. The results show that creep-fatigue interaction damage, creep damage and oxidation assisted cracking are present at high temperature cyclic conditions. In addition, simulated service degradation resulted in a detrimental embrittling effect due to the deterioration by the microstructural evolution.

Book Fatigue of Materials and Structures

Download or read book Fatigue of Materials and Structures written by Claude Bathias and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design of mechanical structures with improved and predictable durability cannot be achieved without a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of fatigue damage and more specifically the relationships between the microstructure of materials and their fatigue properties. Written by leading experts in the field, this book (which is complementary to Fatigue of Materials and Structures: Application to Damage and Design, also edited by Claude Bathias and André Pineau), provides an authoritative, comprehensive and unified treatment of the mechanics and micromechanisms of fatigue in metals, polymers and composites. Each chapter is devoted to one of the major classes of materials or to different types of fatigue damage, thereby providing overall coverage of the field. The book deals with crack initiation, crack growth, low-cycle fatigue, gigacycle fatigue, shorts cracks, fatigue micromechanisms and the local approach to fatigue damage, corrosion fatigue, environmental effects and variable amplitude loadings, and will be an important and much used reference for students, practicing engineers and researchers studying fracture and fatigue in numerous areas of mechanical, structural, civil, design, nuclear, and aerospace engineering as well as materials science.

Book High Temperature Fatigue

Download or read book High Temperature Fatigue written by R.P. Skelton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About 35 years ago, thermal fatigue was identified as an important phenomenon which limited the lifetime of high temperature plant. In the intervening years many investigations have been carried out, primarily to give guidance on likely endurance (especially in the presence of time dependent deformation) but latterly, with the introduction of sophisticated testing machines, to provide knowledge of the underlying mechanisms of failure. A previous edited book (Fatigue at High Temperature, Elsevier Applied Science Publishers, 1983) summarised the state-of-the-art of high temperature fatigue testing and examined the factors influencing life, such as stress state, environment and microstructural effects. It also considered, in some detail, cyclic crack growth as a more rigorous approach to life limitation. The aim of the present volume (which in style and format follows exactly the same lines as its predecessor) is once again to pursue the desire to translate detailed laboratory knowledge into engineering design and assessment. There is, for example, a need to consider the limitations of the laboratory specimen and its relationship with engineering features. Many design procedures still rely on a simple endurance approach based on failure of a smooth specimen, and this is taken to indicate crack initiation in the component. In this volume, therefore, crack propagation is covered only incidentally, emphasis being placed instead on basic cyclic stress strain properties, non-isothermal behaviour, metallography, failure criteria and the need for agreed testing procedures.

Book Fatigue and Corrosion in Metals

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.

Book Influence of Material Microstructure on Low Cycle Fatigue Failure  with Particular Reference to Austenitic Steel

Download or read book Influence of Material Microstructure on Low Cycle Fatigue Failure with Particular Reference to Austenitic Steel written by J. Wareing and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study has been made of the low-cycle fatigue behavior of austenitic stainless steels and a magnesium alloy over a wide range of temperature. The effects of microstructural variation on fatigue life of these materials which exhibit different crystal structures and deformation modes have been studied by thermo-mechanically treating material prior to testing and by inducing grain boundary creep cavitation during elevated temperature unbalanced creep-fatigue cycles. For balanced cycles microstructural changes result in moderate variations in fatigue life, despite changes in failure mode from trans- to intercrystalline. On the other hand, the introduction of discrete creep-type grain boundary cavities during elevated temperature unbalanced creep-fatigue cycles can cause an order of magnitude reduction in fatigue life. The effects observed in these two materials are rationalized in terms of current theories of fatigue failure and serve as a basis of assessing other materials.

Book Assessment of High Temperature Low Cycle Fatigue Life of Austenitic Stainless Steels by Using Intergranular Damage as a Correlating Parameter

Download or read book Assessment of High Temperature Low Cycle Fatigue Life of Austenitic Stainless Steels by Using Intergranular Damage as a Correlating Parameter written by C. Levaillant and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strain-controlled continuous fatigue and creep-fatigue experiments are reported for two types of 316 steel tested at 600°C (1112°F). It is shown that, although the continuous fatigue properties of the two materials are very similar, the one containing a controlled amount of nitrogen exhibits a better creep-fatigue resistance than the other alloy. Detailed measurements of intergranular damage made either on the fracture surfaces or in the bulk of creep-fatigue specimens indicate that the susceptibility of the materials to the effect of tensile hold times can be related to their propensity to intergranular cracking. A stress relaxation-propagation reduction factor per cycle correlation is proposed in order to account for the detrimental effect of tensile hold times on the fatigue life. This correlation relies upon experimental results on austenitic stainless steels published in the literature. It is shown that the proposed approach, derived largely from the quantitative measurement of intergranular damage, holds some promise for predictive purposes.

Book Temperature Fatigue Interaction

Download or read book Temperature Fatigue Interaction written by L. Remy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-03-11 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a selection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the International Conference on Temperature-Fatigue Interaction, held in Paris, May 29-31, 2001, organised by the Fatigue Committee of the Societé Française de Métallurgie et de Matériaux (SF2M), under the auspices of the European Structural Integrity Society. The conference disseminated recent research results and promoting the interaction and collaboration amongst materials scientists, mechanical engineers and design engineers. Many engineering components and structures used in the automotive, aerospace, power generation and many other industries experience cyclic mechanical loads at high temperature or temperature transients causing thermally induced stresses. The increase of operating temperature and thermal mechanical loading trigger the interaction with time-dependent phenomena such as creep and environmental effects (oxidation, corrosion). A large number of metallic materials were investigated including aluminium alloys for the automotive industry, steels and cast iron for the automotive industry and materials forming, stainless steels for power plants, titanium, composites, intermetallic alloys and nickel base superalloys for aircraft industry, polymers. Important progress was observed in testing practice for high temperature behaviour, including environment and thermo-mechanical loading as well as in observation techniques. A large problem which was emphasized is to know precisely service loading cycles under non-isothermal conditions. This was considered critical for numerous thermal fatigue problems discussed in this conference.
