This interest is related to the fact that the resource of loading for many important parts operating under conditions of cyclic loading exceeds the so called multicycle range. the behavior of materials in the range of gigacycle fatigue reveals some qualitative changes in the laws governing both the nucleation of cracks (in the bulk of a sample) and their propagation, which are related to changes in the mechanisms of fatigue crack nucleation and propagation. In the range of gigacycle loading, the fatigue curve exhibits discon tinuities and the behavior shows evidence of a signifi cant increase in the role of environment, so that the problem acquires an interdisciplinary character.The stages of material fracture in the range of giga cycle loading are classified based on the structural signs of damage related to a broad spectrum of spatial scales, including persistent slip bands (PSBs), fatigue striations, microcracks (formed as a result of PSB crossing), and grain boundary defects. The main damage refers to the defect scales within 0.1 μm-1 mm, which are significantly smaller than those detected by the standard methods of nondestructive testing used for the conventional monitoring of reli ability, in particular, during the exploitation of build ings.An effective method for investigating the role of initial structural heterogeneity, monitoring the accu mulation of defects on various scales (dislocation ensembles, micropores, microcracks), and determin ing critical conditions for the transition from dispersed to macroscopic fracture is offered by the quantitative fractography. This technique reveals the characteristic stages of fracture (crack nucleation and propagation), thus providing a base for evaluating the temporal resource of materials and structures under conditions of gigacycle loading.The approach to characterization of the fracture surface morphology in terms of spatiotemporal invari ants was originally proposed by Mandelbrot [1]. This method is based on an analysis of the relief of a frac ture surface, which exhibits the property of self affin ity as manifested by the invariant characteristics of the surrace re...
The work is devoted to the experimental study of heat dissipation process caused by fatigue crack propagation. To investigate a spatial and time temperature evolution at the crack tip set of experiments was carried out using specimens with pre-grown centered fatigue crack. An original mathematical algorithm for experimental data treatment was developed to obtain a power of heat source caused by plastic deformation at crack tip. The algorithm includes spatial-time filtration and relative motion compensation procedures. Based on the results of mathematical data treatment, we proposed a way to estimate the values of J-integral and stress intensity factor for cracks with pronounced the plastic zone.
The presented work is devoted to the experimental study of heat dissipation process caused by fatigue crack propagation. To investigate a spatial and time temperature evolution at the crack tip, set of experiments has been carried out using plate titanium specimens with pre-grown centred fatigue crack. An original mathematical algorithm for experimental data treatment has been developed to obtain the power of heat dissipation caused by plastic deformation at the crack tip. The algorithm includes spatial-time filtration and relative motion compensation procedures. The time dependence of the stored energy was calculated as the difference between work caused by plastic deformation near the crack tip and heat dissipation energy obtained from experimental data. As a result, it has been shown that the stored energy has to accumulated during the fatigue test and has to be equal to zero when the crack reaches the critical length corresponding to the failure of sample.
The objective of this work is to provide the link between the fatigue behaviour of pre-strained aluminium alloys and the scaling properties of damage induced on the fracture surface. Fatigue tests performed on pre-strained aluminium alloys revealed a large difference in their residual fatigue resistance linked to the material: the Al-Cu alloy demonstrated a sharp decrease of HCF life-time due to the pre-straining whereas the insensitivity of the Al-Mg alloy was clear. For the Al-Cu alloy, the investigations made at a 'mechanical' scale allow us to associate the strain energy absorbed during the prior loading with the aspect of the surface and the residual HCF life-time. The statistical characterisation of the fatigue damaged zone was done from the measurement of the surface roughness. Scaling properties were established that allowed the conclusion of the universality of HCF damage kinetics as the mechanism controlling the sensitivity of Al-Cu alloy whatever the pre-straining history.
