With stress ratio of 0.5, biaxility stress ratio of unity, and frequency of applied load of 10 Hz, the crack growth behavior was investigated under in-plane biaxial tension-tension fatigue with 45⁰, 90⁰ and 180⁰ phase difference conditions and then compared to previous fatigue tests with no phase difference to study the effect of changing the phase differences between the applied loads on the crack growth rate. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to calculate cyclic variation of stress intensity factors (∆K) at the crack tips. The crack growth rate was observed using optical microscopy. This study shows that in the biaxial fatigue tests with phase difference of 45⁰, 90⁰ and 180⁰, two fatigue cracks were shaped, symmetrical in case of 90° and 180°, while it’s unsymmetrical for 45 phase difference case. For each phase difference and at a given average crack growth rate,⁰ the strain energy release rate of the non-split crack is equivalent to the sum of strain energy release rates of the two split cracks. In the saltwater environment, the corrosion accelerates the crack growth rate. iv Acknowledgments First, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Shankar Mall, for giving me the opportunity to work on this project.

Besides, an innovative approach has been established to simulate the corrosion-fatigue process in uncoated weathering steel bridges, providing deep insights into the service life of the bridges. The approaches suggested in the article can be used (not limited to) as a reference for the research and design of uncoated weathering steel bridges. Abstract: Uncoated weathering steel (UWS) bridges have been extensively used to reduce the lifecycle cost since they are maintenance-free and eco-friendly. However, the fatigue issue becomes significant in UWS bridges due to the intended corrosion process utilized to form the corrodent-proof rust layer instead of the coating process. In this paper, an innovative model is proposed to simulate the corrosion-fatigue (C-F) process in UWS bridges. Generally, the C-F process could be considered as two relatively independent stages in a time series, including the pitting process of flaw-initiation and the fatigue crack propagation of the critical pitting flaw. In the proposed C-F model, Faraday’s law has been employed at the critical flaw-initiation stage to describe the pitting process, in which the pitting current is applied to reflect the pitting rate in different corrosive environments.

Lopez Received: 21 September 2016; Accepted: 8 December 2016; Published: 16 December 2016 Abstract: Significant structural steels for nuclear power engineering are chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels. The presented paper evaluates the kinetics of the fatigue crack growth of AISI 304L and AISI 316L stainless steels in air and in corrosive environments of 3.5% aqueous NaCl solution after the application of solution annealing, stabilizing annealing, and sensitization annealing. Comparisons were made between the fatigue crack growth rate after each heat treatment regime, and a comparison between the fatigue crack growth rate in both types of steels was made. For individual heat treatment regimes, the possibility of the development of intergranular corrosion was also considered. Evaluations resulted in very favourable corrosion fatigue characteristics of the 316L steel. After application of solution and stabilizing annealing at a comparable DK level, the fatigue crack growth rate was about one half compared to 304L steel. After sensitization annealing of 316L steel, compared to stabilizing annealing, the increase of crack growth rate during corrosion fatigue was slightly higher.

  • Corrosion-Fatigue Testing on Steel Grades with Different Heat and Surface Treatments Used in Rock-Drilling Applications
    DEGREE PROJECT IN MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING, SECOND CYCLE, 30 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2016 CORROSION-FATIGUE TESTING ON STEEL GRADES WITH DIFFERENT HEAT AND SURFACE TREATMENTS USED IN ROCK-DRILLING APPLICATIONS LUIS MIGUEL BÉJAR INFANTE KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT Abstract Corrosion fatigue is a common failure mechanism in rock drilling components and many other mechanical parts subjected to cyclic loads in corrosive environments. A crucial part in the design of such components resides in the selection of the right materials for the application, which ideally involves testing and comparison of their performance under working conditions. The present work was performed with the purpose of designing a corrosion-fatigue testing method that would allow the designer to compare the performance of different materials exposed to corrosion fatigue, permitting also the comparison with results from dry fatigue testing. The method was designed for rotating-bending machines. Two different steel grades were used during the work, one through hardened and one case hardened. The effect of these heat treatments and of shot peening over corrosion-fatigue behaviour were studied using the proposed method. It was proven that the testing speed has a strong impact on the fatigue life of steel. It was found that, at a fixed stress level, the case hardened and shot peened steel reached 3X10^6 cycles at 2300 rpm, while it failed at only 5X10^5 cycles with a testing speed of 500 rpm. A large beneficial influence of the shot peening was demonstrated. It was also observed that, at fixed testing speed, the shot peening on the through hardened steel can increase its fatigue strength from 190 MPa to 600 MPa under corrosion fatigue.

  • Mechanical Fatigue of Metals
    354.pdf A SunCam online continuing education course Mechanical Fatigue of Metals by Gerald O. Davis, P.E. 354.pdf Mechanical Fatigue of Metals A SunCam online continuing education course 1. Introduction - Overview of Mechanical Fatigue of Metals Among the several ways that metallic engineering materials may fail in service, mechanical fatigue is typically the most common. The percentages of the total mechanical failures that are due to fatigue vary by different sources from 50% to as much as 80 to 90 %. Some examples of applications in which fatigue failures occur include rotating shafts, bearings, gears, the wings and pressurized fuselages of aircraft, pipelines and tubes in shell-and-tube heat exchangers. There are many other examples. The variable loads and changing stresses that occur in fatigue have unique effects on the services lives of engineering alloys that don’t apply in situations where the only stresses acting are static. In situations where loading and resulting stresses don’t vary, resistance to failures becomes relatively straight forward. They can be adequately addressed by assuring working stresses, i.e., allowable stresses, are less than the yield, or ultimate tensile strength or ultimate shear strength (depending on the application) of the metal selected after applying a factor of safety to cover unknown aspects. Mechanical fatigue is significantly more complex. It is essential to realize that metal mechanical properties generated from standard, constant load tests should never be applied directly to fatigue applications. Fatigue often produces failure and complete metal separation when the maximum, fluctuating stress is well below the yield or ultimate tensile strength of the metal.

An example of such corrosion is the rusting of steel plate in seawater. If the rate of metal loss is known, allowances can be made in design and maintenance to accommodate the corrosion. Although it is termed uniform corrosion, it is characterized by the average surface loss. Uniform corrosion of storage tanks [from Jones (1996)]. 5.2 Galvanic Corrosion When two different metals are exposed to a corrosive environment, an electrical potential difference will exist. If the two metals are electrically connected, the more active metal will become the anode in the resulting galvanic cell and its corrosion will be increased.
