Book The Effect of Loading Rate and Temperature on the Fracture Toughness of High Strength Steels

Download or read book The Effect of Loading Rate and Temperature on the Fracture Toughness of High Strength Steels written by David P. Kendall and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of loading rates, ranging from 10 to 100,000 ksi square root of (in/sec), and temperatures, ranging from room temperature to -100F, on the plane strain fracture toughness of several high strength alloy steels has been determined. Materials investigated are a commercial 4340 steel, a modified 4330 steel from a gun tube forging having three different heat treatments and two different heats of 250 grade maraging steel. Test specimens utilized are essentially ASTM 'compact tension' type specimens of one inch thickness. Tests were conducted on an open loop, hydraulic, high loading rate tensile testing machine. Results are presented in the form of graphs of fracture toughness versus temperature for the maximum and minimum loading rates ('dynamic' and 'static'). Fracture toughness versus loading rate at -60F and yield strength versus elastic strain rate at room temperature, -60F and -100F for one heat of maraging steel are also reported. (Author).

Book Influence of Loading Rate on the Fracture Toughness of Some Structural Steels in the Transition Regime

Download or read book Influence of Loading Rate on the Fracture Toughness of Some Structural Steels in the Transition Regime written by B. Marandet and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fracture toughness of five structural steels was determined as a function of temperature in static and dynamic conditions (?K ? 2 x 104 MPa ?m/s). The most significant effect of increasing the strain rate was to shift the KIc-temperature curve towards higher temperatures. The amplitude of the temperature shift between the transition temperatures obtained in static (TKIc) and dynamic (TKId) conditions were compared with the predictions given by different models. It appeared that the variations of yield strength cannot always account for the change of fracture toughness with temperature and strain rate.

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 The Effect of Strain Rate on the Toughness of Ship Steels

Download or read book The Effect of Strain Rate on the Toughness of Ship Steels written by Philip H. Francis and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yield strength and fracture toughness, as measured by the dynamic tear test, were determined as a function of load rate and temperature for several ship primary structure steels in strength ranges up to 100 ksi. The materials used were ABS-B, DS, AH-32, EH-32, CS, A517-D, A678-C, and A537-B, in one or two heats each. The effect of notch geometry, i.e., fatigue precracked vis-a-vis pressed notch, was investigated in some of the tests. By fully instrumenting some of the tests, the energy to maximum load as well as the total energy to failure was determined. Based on these energies, the resistance of the materials to crack initiation and to propagation could be examined. The results indicate potentially different fracture behavior between the high and low strength alloys. This in turn has implications in terms of the Ship Structure Committee Report SSC-244 proposed fracture criterion for qualifying toughness and crack arrest properties of ship steels and weldments.

Book Strength and Toughness of Materials

Download or read book Strength and Toughness of Materials written by Toshiro Kobayashi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-03-04 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the shift from the Metal Age progresses, materials engineers and materials scientists seek new analytical and design methods to create stronger and more reliable materials. Based on extensive research and developmental work done at the author’s multi-disciplinary material laboratory, this graduate-level and professional reference addresses the relationship between fracture mechanisms (macroscale) and the microscopic, with the goal of explaining macroscopic fracture behavior based on a microscopic fracture mechanism. A careful fusion of mechanics and materials science, this text and monograph systematically considers an array of materials, from metals through ceramics and polymers, and demonstrates lab-tested strategies to develop desirable high-temperature materials for technological applications.

Book Advances in Research on the Strength and Fracture of Materials

Download or read book Advances in Research on the Strength and Fracture of Materials written by D.M.R. Taplin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 873 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Research on the Strength and Fracture of Materials: Volume 1s—An Overview contains the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Fracture held at the University of Waterloo, Canada, in June 1977. The papers review the state of the art with respect to fracture in a wide range of materials such as metals and alloys, polymers, ceramics, and composites. This volume is comprised of 40 chapters and opens with a discussion on progress in the development of elementary fracture mechanism maps and their application to metal deformation processes, along with micro-mechanisms of fracture and the fracture toughness of engineering alloys. The next section is devoted to the fracture of large-scale structures such as steel structures, aircraft, cargo containment systems, nuclear reactors, and pressure vessels. Fracture at high temperatures and in sensitive environments is then explored, paying particular attention to creep failure by cavitation under non-steady conditions; the effects of hydrogen and impurities on brittle fracture in steel; and mechanism of embrittlement and brittle fracture in liquid metal environments. The remaining chapters consider the fracture of non-metallic materials as well as developments and concepts in the application of fracture mechanics. This book will be of interest to metallurgists, materials scientists, and structural and mechanical engineers.

Book On the Determination of Dynamic Fracture Toughness Properties by Instrumented Impact Testing

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.

Book The Relationship of Microstructure to Strength and Toughness in High strength Steel

Download or read book The Relationship of Microstructure to Strength and Toughness in High strength Steel written by John Henry Bucher and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report deals with the relationship of elements of microstructure to the fracture characteristics of a group of commercially produced steels, heat-treated to ultra-high strength levels. The microstructures were characterized in terms of optical microscopy, electron diffraction, and electron fractography. Fractographic studies were made of fractured surfaces broken in impact at +25 and -196 C as a function of tempering temperature, in slow bending at ambient temperature, in a modified bend test in which slow and fast propagation stages were effected, and on surfaces produced in tensile fractures. The fracture characteristics were studied by means of an instrumented bend test and in terms of the plastic instability generated in the torsion test. The instrumented bend test yielded data on criteria for the onset of slow crack propagation and for the onset of rapid propagation, including the effect of the total stored energy in the system. Plastic instability in torsion was studied as a function of specimen section size in AISI 4340 steel. A 250,000 psi yield strength Maraging steel was studied in a standard size test bar. (Author).
