Banded TMAZ consisting of needle-like α precipitates and elongated αp within DRXed β grains bridges the HAZ and SZ. Fine β grains in SZ contribute to the highest tensile strength in the 3rd layer. Fatigue cracks prefer to nucleate from HAGBs and {1 1 2} 〈1 1 1〉 slip deformation of β structure in the 2nd layer of SZ below 210 MPa and 3rd layer of HAZ otherwise. Transgranular crack propagation along the {1 1 2} planes exhibits a higher crack growth rate in HAZ than SZ.. |

The underlying domain structures play significant roles in regulating the macroscopic properties of ferroelectric materials, while there is only limited knowledge of the domain structures for BIT ceramics until now, substantially bad for the development of BIT-based new materials. In this study, the intriguing domain walls(DWs) in BIT ceramics were investigated in detail. The atomic-scale observation reveals that there primarily exist energetically favorable {110}-type 90° DWs in BIT ceramics. Combined with the theoretical analysis, these DWs are not only elaborated under multiple piezoelectric response modes, but also further corroborated by the quantitative reconstruction of spatial polarization distributions of twin-related ferroelectric variants. This work sheds insight into domain structure and piezoelectric response mechanism in BIT ceramics, and contributes to promoting their more applications in advanced electron devices.. |

The results show that basal slip is the predominant deformation at grain scale, but the gliding of 〈c + a〉 dislocation is also visible near grain boundaries to accommodate localized inhomogeneous deformation. The interaction between basal 〈a〉 dislocations and non-basal 〈c + a〉 dislocations results in the nucleation of dislocation intensity zones (DIZs), which subsequently hinders the development of the basal slip bands. Therefore, it is suggested that the DIZs contributed to the enhanced high cycle fatigue resistance of RE-Mg alloys.. |

The results show that aging treatment provided significant improvement of ~100 MPa in strength by forming ellipsoidal β′ nanophases in the as-extruded alloys. Partially substituting Y for Gd in the as-extruded Mg-Gd-Zn-Mn alloys can delay age-hardening response, but improve the strength increment after aging treatment. As the Y/Gd atomic ratio changed from 0 to 1, the Mg-1.75Gd-0.75Y-0.5Zn–Mn(at.%) alloy with a Y/Gd atomic ratio of 0.4 obtained the higher peak-hardness and mechanical properties. Enhanced age-hardening response and better mechanical properties were detected after separate additions of Y and Gd. The extruded-T5 Mg-2.5Gd-0.75Y-0.5Zn-0.3Mn alloy exhibited superior ultimate tensile strengths of 520 MPa at room temperature, 344 MPa at 250 °C, and 225 MPa at 300 °C. Fracture behaviours reveal that a change in predominant deformation mechanism from one based on dislocations to one mediated by grain boundary (GB) processes was found as the tensile temperatures arise from 250 °C to 300 °C. The activation of GB sliding of the fine grains partially resulted in the decrease of tensile strength at 300 °C.. |

The results demonstrate that the refinement of LPSO structure/SFs was dominated by the misalignment mechanism and re-dissolution mechanism. Dislocation slips on the LPSO structure/SFs, as well as the rapid diffusion of solute atoms was responsible for the re-dissolution of LPSO structure/SFs. As the LPSO structure/SFs dissolved, a region with supersaturated solute atoms was formed and resulting in re-precipitation of SFs in continuous dynamically recrystallized grains. Finally, the evolution model of LPSO structure/SFs during continuous dynamic recrystallization was proposed.. |

The plastic deformation and compressive residual stress, induced by the laser shock peening (LSP), present gradient distributions along the depth direction. High-angle grain boundaries (HAGB, >15°) are increased by deformation twins, which are introduced into primary α phases during the plastic deformation. The enhancement in fatigue resistance is ascribed to the comprehensive retardation effects of the compressive residual stress, high-density dislocations, and HAGBs.. |

Like the tensile cracks, torsional cracks were substantiated to nucleate from specimen surface or interior sites and presented in a fatigue life-dependent mode. Internal tensile and torsional fatigue cracks with faceted morphology were analyzed using focus ion beam and unraveled to initiate in modes II + III that driven by maximum shear stress. Particularly, short crack branching and deflection beneath the crack initiation rough area can be observed for torsional loading condition.. |

| 14. | Su Ning, Wu Yujuan, Chang Zhiyu, Deng Qingchen, Peng Liming, Yang Kun, Chen Qiang, Selective variant growth of precipitates in an as-extruded Mg-Gd-Zn-Mn alloy, Materials Letters, 10.1016/j.matlet.2020.127853, 272, 2020.08, Selective variant growth of precipitates was found in an as-extruded Mg-13.7Gd-1.7Zn-0.5Mn (wt.%) alloy. In the coarse-deformed grains, β' phases and hexagonal clusters mainly precipitate along the [101-0]Mg orientation. While in the fine dynamic recrystallized (DRXed) grains, the β' phases and a few of the hexagonal clusters are relatively uniform distributed along the three Mg directions. This phenomenon is attributed to the coupling of dislocation strain field and residual stress component in the as-extruded alloy. Moreover, dislocations in the deformed grains result in a significant increase in the number density of hexagonal clusters comparing to those in the DRXed grains. This selective variant growth of precipitates is expected to change the deformation behavior and modify the mechanical properties in Mg-RE (rare earth) alloys.. |
| 15. | Ning Su, Xiaoyu Xue, Hui Zhou, Yujuan Wu, Qingchen Deng, Kun Yang, Qiang Chen, Bin Chen, Liming Peng, Effects of nanoprecipitates and LPSO structure on deformation and fracture behaviour of high-strength Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Mn alloys, Materials Characterization, 10.1016/j.matchar.2020.110396, 165, 2020.07, [URL], In this work, a high-strength Mg-12Gd-2Y-1Zn-Mn alloy with an ultimate tensile strength of 509 MPa and a fracture elongation of 5% at room temperature tensile was developed by using hot extrusion and subsequent ageing. Progressive observations of crack initiation and early propagation of the as-extruded and peak-aged alloys were conducted during the tensile process. The results show that the activation of fine-grain boundary sliding and multiple non-basal slip systems in coarse unDRXed grains is the dominant deformation mechanisms of the as-extruded alloy, which eventually lead to crack initiation and propagation. After peak-ageing treatment, dense β′ precipitates are formed within the bimodal grains, resulting in changes in deformation mechanisms and crack initiation and propagation behaviours during the tensile process. The grain boundary sliding is suppressed and the grain boundary strength is enhanced due to the precipitation of β′ phases on the hindering effect of dislocation mobility. Therefore, no-basal slip and cross-slip in coarse unDRXed grains become the major roles in crack propagation. The intra-grain LPSO (long-period stacking ordered) phase can suppress crack initiation and propagation in both as-extruded and peak-aged alloys. For the thick LPSO phase at the grain boundaries of the as-extruded alloy, it inhibits crack propagation to some extent. While the thick-deformed LPSO phase at the grain boundaries of the extruded-peak-aged alloy more easily causes crack initiation with increasing tensile strains.. |
| 16. | Kun Yang, Qi Huang, Qingyuan Wang, Qiang Chen, Competing crack initiation behaviors of a laser additively manufactured nickel-based superalloy in high and very high cycle fatigue regimes, International Journal of Fatigue, 10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2020.105580, 136, 2020.07, [URL], Ultrasonic fatigue tests were performed to investigate high and very high cycle fatigue behaviors of a laser additively manufactured Inconel 718 (IN718) alloy in the as-deposited condition. The results indicate that the competition failure behavior between the surface and interior crack initiation results in the separate S-N curve. Both manufacturing defects (e.g., gas pore, lack of fusion) and columnar grains (matrix) observed in the microstructure could act as the original fatigue micro-cracks due to the effective restriction on manufacturing defects. The fatigue sensitivity levels increase successively in terms of the type, size, and location of the maximal micro-crack.. |

Interfaces of ferrite and pearlite colony with a small angle deviation from the loading axis were verified to be the most potential sites to fabricate the microcracks caused by the high strain gradient. The initial crack extension inside ferrite grain was driven by shear stress in model II along the direction with a 45° angle to the loading axis. Banded pearlite colony and the high-angle grain boundaries were considered as the dominant factors that promote the fatigue resistance of the material through arousing crack deflection in short crack propagation range and crack branching in long crack propagation range to reduce the crack propagation driving force in the crack tip. P–S–N curves were used to quantify the dispersion of fatigue lifetimes and evaluate the effect of elevated volume content of pearlite colony on the fatigue performance of the material.. |

Ma, Enhanced very high cycle fatigue resistance of solution treated Mg–10Gd–3Y–1Zn–0.5Zr magnesium alloy containing long-period stacking ordered phase, Materialia, 10.1016/j.mtla.2020.100672, 11, 2020.06, [URL], We explored the very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) behavior of solution treated Mg–10Gd–3Y–1Zn–0.5Zr (wt. %, GWZ1031K-T4) alloy containing long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures. The fatigue strength of GWZ1031K-T4 alloy at 109 cycles is about 115.0 MPa, and the corresponding fatigue ratio is approximately 0.44. Crack initiation that causes fatal failure was found to occur primarily from the specimen surface in the high cycle fatigue regime and the subsurface in the very high cycle fatigue regime, accompanied by crystallographic facet formation irrespective of a lifetime. Our results reveal that the basal slip activated in the matrix grain substantially alleviated strain localization during VHCF testing. The unique microstructure, featuring block-shaped LPSO structures scattered at the grain boundary, a large amount of thin LPSO phase and stacking faults enriched with solute atoms (SFs) homogenously distributing in the alloy matrix, and supersaturated Gd and Y atoms in the nano-scale Mg layers in the grain, is proposed to account for the enhanced fatigue failure resistance of GWZ1031K-T4 alloy.. |
| 19. | X. H. Shao, Q. Q. Jin, Y. T. Zhou, H. J. Yang, S. J. Zheng, B. Zhang, Q. Chen, X. L. Ma, Basal shearing of twinned stacking faults and its effect on mechanical properties in an Mg–Zn–Y alloy with LPSO phase, Materials Science and Engineering A, 10.1016/j.msea.2020.139109, 779, 2020.03, [URL], The precipitates inside deformation twins may block the dislocation motion and consequently affect the mechanical property of materials. Herein, at the atomic level, we directly visualize that the basal dislocation slips shear the twinned stacking faults (TSFs) within the deformation twins in an Mg–Zn–Y alloy containing long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures. The TSFs, enriched with solute atoms, could be considered as precipitates inside deformation twins. They are sheared by a single step or multiple shearing steps on the basal plane. The microstructural fingerprints, i.e., the width of basal shearing steps, enable a quantitative assessment of the local and total plastic shear strain due to the basal dislocation within the deformation twins. The TSFs can block dislocation slip, while the dislocation shearing induces large lattice distortion and even solute atoms redistribution at local intersection. The TSFs-dislocation interaction is expected to lower the basal dislocation motion and resultantly modulate the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys. These results may offer a novel strategy for strengthening and toughening magnesium alloys via tailoring the shearable precipitates.. |

Post-weld heat treatment was performed at 630 °C for 2 h to improve the mechanical properties of electron beam welded TC17 titanium alloy joint through modifying the microstructures of the weldment. Results showed that undesired α′ martensites in the fusion zone and heat affected zone, which inhibited the mechanical response of the weldment, were completely eliminated. The supersaturated β phase with martensitic α′ structure in the as-welded joint was recrystallized into α lamella with a width in nanoscale embedded in the β matrix after the post-weld heat treatment, which conspicuously enhanced the mechanical performances of welded joints. Micro-hardness of the FZ presented to be more stable around HV410. Tensile strength was regained from 868 MPa to 1138 MPa, which was very closed to the raw material. Intrinsic metallic deficiency inducing fatigue failure of the as-welded joint was eliminated after the post-weld heat treatment accompanied with the fatigue strength enhancing from about 140 MPa of the as-welded joint to 240 MPa with an equal fatigue life of 107 cycles under the stress ratio of 0.1.. |

A higher stress level was more potential to fabricate a fatal fatigue crack initiating from the intrinsic metallic deficiencies. At a lower stress of 180 MPa, fatigue crack appeared to initiate from the intergranular welding pores other than the intrinsic metallic deficiencies. Furthermore, intergranular welding pores induced fatal crack initiation became the major fatigue crack initiation mechanisms when the fatigue stress amplitude down to 140 MPa.. |

Ma, Segregation of solute atoms along deformation-induced boundaries in an Mg–Zn–Y alloy containing long period stacking ordered phase, Materialia, 10.1016/j.mtla.2019.100287, 6, 2019.06, [URL], The interfacial segregation plays an important role in affecting the mechanical performance of various materials. Here we study the segregation behaviors along deformation-induced interfaces in the matrix of an Mg97Zn1Y2 (at%) alloy compressed at 473 K using atomic-scale high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) imaging techniques. The kink boundary, twinning-like boundary, and tilt boundary within the matrix grain are detected to be segregated with both solute Zn and Y atoms. The segregation along kink boundary and twinning-like boundary is closely linked to the associated partial dislocations, and these boundaries also could be regarded as the nucleation sites for the formation of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures of nanometer scale and stacking faults (SFs) during deformation. For the various tilt boundary, the segregation could be explained based on either the O-lattice theory or partial dislocations. The experimental results may shed some new light on tailoring microstructures for improving mechanical properties and thermal stability of magnesium alloys.. |

The results indicate that basal slip is the dominant deformation mechanism, especially in coarse grains, and eventually leads to fatigue crack initiation. Early crack propagation behavior was strongly influenced by local microstructural heterogeneities in grain size and orientation. Three kinds of microstructures—favorably-oriented coarse grains, fine grain clusters and unfavorably-oriented coarse grains—are discussed in terms of their deformation mechanisms and resistance to crack propagation. These microstructural effects caused highly variable crack propagation rates within the first ∼200 μm of cracks.. |

Ma, Unravelling the local ring-like atomic pattern of twin boundary in an Mg-Zn-Y alloy, Philosophical Magazine, 10.1080/14786435.2018.1539262, 99, 3, 306-317, 2019.02, [URL], Understanding the interactions between deformation twins and plate-like phases in magnesium alloys is one of the key issues to tailor the microstructure of magnesium alloys for better mechanical properties. The {1012} twin boundary with the local ring-like atomic pattern in magnesium alloy, accompanied by the interaction between deformation twin and solute atoms, has been investigated using aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy. We found that these boundaries featured local overlapping morphology near the intersection between deformation twins and stacking faults (SFs) enriched with solute atoms. The overlapping morphology is proposed to be induced by the asynchronous shuffling of the SFs and matrix during the twinning. The local ring-like atomic patterns shown here imply that the shearable specific SFs in magnesium alloys will increase twinning energy and resultantly hinder twinning propagation.. |

Experimental results showed that only basal slip was activated at a low cyclic stress amplitude. Fatigue crack initiated from the slip bands along the basal plane, leading to the formation of cleavage-like facets on the fracture surface. The formation of facets around the crack initiation sites consumed a vast majority of the cyclic loadings in high cycle fatigue regime, and small fatigue crack propagation was significantly retarded by local microstructure heterogeneity of neighboring grains. This can be ascribed to the incompatible deformation at low cyclic stresses, resulting in the localization of slip bands within isolated grains.. |

Results indicate that the fatigue crack initiates from an area consisting of many distributed facets, while the region of early crack propagation is characterised by parallel traces, based on a fractographic analysis. The significant differences in morphology around the crack initiation area result from the interaction between the deformation twinning and the plastic zone at the crack tip. In addition, the fatigue crack propagation rate around the crack initiation site is also estimated based on a modified Murakami model. It is found that the formation stage for the fatigue crack is of great importance to the fatigue failure mechanism in the VHCF regime.. |
| 27. | 皮籠石 紀雄, 仮屋 孝二, 陳 強, 中村 祐三, 永野 茂憲, 王 清遠, 時効硬化Al合金における特異な疲労破壊とその巨視的および微視的様相, 日本機械学会論文集, 10.1299/transjsme.17-00273, 83, 855, 1-13, 2017.10, There are many studies reported that a fatigue crack propagated in a tensile mode macroscopically and the fracture surface was mainly occupied by striations in many metals. Whereas, a unique fracture in which a crack propagated in a macroscopic shear direction accompanied by ductile facets was observed in some aluminum alloys under specific conditions. In the present study, fatigue tests of age-hardened Al alloys of extruded 2017-T4 and 7075-T6 were conducted in relative humidity environments of 25% and 85% under rotating bending and ultrasonic loading conditions to clarify the crystallographic feature of a shear mode crack and propose its growth mechanism. Many facets showing a feature of shear mode crack propagation with an equivalent size to the grain size were observed at the fracture surface under both conditions of rotating bending in high humidity and ultrasonic loading irrespective of humidity. In addition, it was confirmed that the angle between the loading axis and the growth direction of the shear mode crack composed a constant value, ~35°, relating to the marked texture in the propagation process of the macroscopic shear mode crack. However, a crack growth rate was lower in the ultrasonic loading than in the rotating bending in high humidity. Based on their differences in occurrence conditions of the shear mode crack, two mechanisms for this unique propagation were proposed as follows; that is, one was a shear mode crack occurred by the promotion of the slip deformation to one direction due to hydrogen generated by reaction of Al alloy with water vapor in high humidity, and the other was a crack by the suppression of the deformation to one direction due to re-welding of crack faces under ultrasonic loading. . |

It was found that the fatigue strength of nugget zone decreased continuously even beyond 107 cycles with no traditional fatigue limits. Fatigue cracks initiated from the welding defects located at the bottom side of the friction stir weld. Moreover, a special semicircular zone could be characterized around the crack initiation site, of which the stress intensity factor approximately equaled the threshold of fatigue crack propagation rate. Finally, a simplified model was proposed to estimate the fatigue life by correlating the welding defect size and applied stress. The predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental results.. |

Macroscopic growth mode of a crack in low humidity was a tensile one irrespective of loading frequency. By contrast, the mode in high humidity was changed from the shear one to the tensile one with increase in fatigue life at 50 Hz, while it was the tensile mode only in the wide range of fatigue life at 6 Hz. In low humidity, the crack propagated by forming striations which are general in fatigue of many metals. On the other hand, in high humidity, most of fracture surface was occupied by many slip planes in the shear mode crack and by granular facets in addition to striations in the tensile mode one. The crack growth rate in high humidity was higher in the shear mode crack than in the tensile mode one. The differences in growth mechanism and growth rate of a crack were explained by the content of diffused hydrogen generated by reaction of water vapor and aluminum in addition to the microstructure with sub-grain and texture and the cyclic softening behavior of the alloy.. |

In addition, double-aging treatments which were under- peak- and over-aging treatments at 673K and under-aging one at 473K after the peak-aging at 753K were also examined. Both of static and fatigue strengths were increased by the double-aging without any decrease in ductility and fatigue fracture toughness. Fatigue strength was markedly decreased by high humidity in all of the steels, and the decrease in fatigue strength was mainly caused by the accelerations of crack initiation and its growth at the early stage of fatigue process. The decrease in fatigue strength in high humidity was also suppressed by the double aging. A few facets comparable to a grain size of a prior austenite were observed at the fracture origins in high humidity but transgranular cracks by slip deformation were in low humidity. However most of the fracture surfaces were covered with lath boundary cracking regardless of the humidity and aging conditions. River pattern was observed in the facets, suggesting that the acceleration of crack growth in high humidity was a behavior related to hydrogen generated in cathode reaction. Based on the results, new aging treatment for improvement of fatigue properties of maraging steel was proposed. © 2013 The Society of Materials Science, Japan.. |

Rotating bending fatigue tests were carried out for a 350 grade of 18% Ni maraging steel in the long life region up to 108 cycles in the relative humidity of 25% and 85%. Aging conditions under investigation included a conventional aging or the so called single aging at 753K, and a two-step aging or double aging by ageing at lower temperature of 473K succeeded to the single aging. Through the double aging, the susceptibility of fatigue strength to humidity was significantly improved without any deleterious effects. The main reasons for the decrease in fatigue strength in high humidity are due to the promotion of crack initiation and the acceleration of small crack propagation. The improvement of fatigue property in high humidity by the double aging was explained from the roles of the additional precipitation of supersaturated Mo atoms during the second lower temperature aging.

It was found that the initiation and the early propagation of a fatigue crack were accelerated in high humidity, which caused to a large decrease in fatigue strength of the alloys. In fact, the fatigue strength at 107 cycles obtained in RH 85% was less than a half of that in RH25%. Meanwhile, successive observation on surface fatigue progress and the fractographic analysis of fractured specimens elucidated that anodic dissolution was the main reason for promoting crack initiation whilst hydrogen embrittlement due to cathode reaction was responsible for the acceleration of crack propagation. However, the acceleration of crack propagation was suppressed by the formation of reverted austenite.. |

These results indicated that the fatigue micro crack initiation was mainly caused by the stress concentration at room temperature, but at an elevated temperature (750°C) the multi-cracks were caused by the coupled factors of both lamellar microstructure and stress concentration. Therefore, fatigue micro crack initiation behavior is much more dependent on the lamellar structure at an elevated temperature. One of the reasons is that the elevated temperature degrades the interface strength between the lamellar of the TiAl alloy with 8% Nb content. Therefore, the small fatigue crack propagation behavior of the alloy exhibited a mixture damage model of interlamellar and translamellar at a micro scale. The crack growth path and fracture characteristics provided a proof of crack deflection, branching and/or bridging induced either by interlamellar or by translamellar failure mode. © 2012 by the authors.. |

At 50Hz, macroscopic appearances of fractures were a shear mode at high stress levels in high humidity, though those were a tensile mode in other conditions of humidity and stress levels. The crack growth rate was accelerated by high humidity. By changing humidity, both of the growth rate and the growth mode of a crack were immediately changed to those corresponding to the changed humidity. That is, the growth behavior and fatigue life under humidity change may be estimated by those in constant humidity. Fatigue life in high humidity at 6Hz was longer than that at 50Hz in spite of accelerations of both of the crack initiation and its growth rate in the early growth process in high humidity at both frequency, though there was no or little influence of frequency on fatigue life in low humidity. Moreover, the crack propagated in the tensile mode even at high stress levels where the shear mode crack propagated at 50Hz. These results were explained by the effect of hydrogen on the crack growth behavior. © 2012 The Society of Materials Science, Japan.. |

The extruded Al alloy and the annealed one had a marked texture of a (111) plane at the cross section of each bar, but a specified orientation was not observed in the drawn one. In addition, the aged-hardened Al alloys show a planar slip property and the annealed alloy shows a wavy one. In the all Al alloys, the obvious retardation of a small crack growth due to blocking effect of a grain boundary was observed in low humidity, though the retardation disappeared in high humidity. Moreover the acceleration of a crack growth was yielded due to the change in growth mechanism of a crack from a tensile mode in low humidity to a shear mode at high stress levels in high humidity in the extruded alloy, though the effect of humidity on the growth mechanism was very small in the drawn Al alloy and the annealed one. In the extruded Al alloy, the fracture surface yielded by the shear mode crack in high humidity was occupied by many slip planes and voids and was a (100) plane, though the fracture surface formed by the growth of the tensile mode crack in low humidity was covered with striations. In the drawn and annealed Al alloys, fracture surfaces were mainly occupied by striations irrespective of humidity and stress levels. © 2012 The Society of Materials Science, Japan.. |

The growth of a crack retarded at about 500 µm in surface length under ultrasonic loading, while at about 20 µm under rotating bending. Although striations being a typical fracture mechanism were observed under conventional loading, most of fracture surface was covered with many facets under ultrasonic loading. These facets were also observed under rotating bending in nitrogen gas. The difference in growth mechanism depending on the loading frequency and the retardation of a crack growth under ultrasonic loading may be caused by the environment at the crack tip due to high crack growth rate under ultrasonic loading.. |

To clarify the physical background of the effect of trace Zr on the fatigue strength of such alloys, the initiation and propagation behavior of a major crack that led to the fracture of the tested specimens was monitored. When the stress amplitude was less than sigma(a) = 350 MPa, the fatigue life of the alloys with Zr was about 2-2.5 times larger than that of the alloy without Zr. When sigma(a) > 350 MPa, the effect of Zr addition on the fatigue life dramatically decreases as the stress amplitude increases. The increased fatigue life due to Zr addition resulted from an enhancement of the crack initiation life and microcrack growth life. The enhanced crack initiation life was mainly attributed to the strengthening of grain boundaries due to the precipitation of SnZr compounds. A statistical analysis of the behavior of multiple cracks was made to quantitatively evaluate the scatter in fatigue behavior. The statistical analysis supported the conclusions obtained from the behavior of a major crack.. |

Fatigue strength was decreased by high humidity. The growth mechanism of a fatigue crack was different depending on environment and stress level. Although most of fractures occurred by the growth of a tensile mode crack, a crack propagated in a shear mode accompanying with slip planes and voids at high stress levels in high humidity and at all stress levels tested in nitrogen gas. The shear mode crack was related to the marked texture of the alloy. Growth rates of the shear mode crack were higher in high humidity than in nitrogen gas. Growth mechanisms of the shear mode crack were different between environments in nitrogen gas and in high humidity. That is, the reason for the growth of a shear mode crack in nitrogen gas was the suppression to growth of a tensile mode crack by reversible slip due to absence of oxide film. On the other hand, in high humidity, the growth of a shear mode crack was promoted by the formation and coalescence of voids, suggesting that the acceleration of the growth rate of a crack may be assisted by hydrogen accumulated around precipitated particles on glide planes. © 2011 The Society of Materials Science, Japan.. |

Fracture in high humidity occurred by the growth of a shear mode crack under high stress levels, though a crack propagated in a tensile mode under low stress ones, macroscopically. Many voids and slip planes were observed on the fracture surface yielded by the shear mode crack. Especially most of the fracture surface was occupied by voids where the crack was small. The void percentage decreased with increasing in the crack depth. Fracture surface yielded by the shear mode crack was a plane (100). The growth direction of the shear mode crack to the cross section of specimen was about 55° corresponding to the angle composed by this plane and the texture of plane (111). These results suggest that the shear mode crack was related to microstructure, stress and environment. The growth mechanism of the shear mode crack assisted by hydrogen was proposed based on the results of the acceleration of crack growth and the formation of voids in high humidity. © (2012) Trans Tech Publications.. |

Cutting tests were performed and the effects of coolant, thin sintered carbide plate material type and its thickness on stress state and fracture are discussed. It was established that the absence of coolant, as well as, higher Young's modulus and less thickness of the thin sintered carbide plate results in higher stresses on the tip's rake face, leading to its premature failure.

The results obtained were compared with those in rotating bending fatigue. Fatigue strength was higher in ultrasonic fatigue than in rotating bending fatigue. This may be caused by the retardation of crack initiation and early crack propagation. In ultrasonic fatigue, the growth direction of cracks changed macroscopically from tensile mode to shear mode with the direction oblique about 35 degrees to the stress axis. Fracture mechanism involved changed from striations featured to transgranular facets and microvoids predominated. Crack growth rate at growth mode transition was ~3x10-9 m/cycle. The relation between applied stress, a, and crack depth, bT, at the transition sites can be approximated as anbT = constant.

Fatigue limit for internal fracture increased with increase in hardness similar to the one for surface fracture. However, the proportional relationship between the fatigue limit and the hardness existed till higher hardness in the fatigue limit for internal fracture than in the one for surface fracture.

The different of fatigue strength at ultrasonic frequency level and conventional frequency level is very small and the S-N curve obtained from 20 kHz or 52.5 Hz shows the step-wise shape. The fatigue crack occurred from inclusions on the subsurface site in the long life regime and the typical surface fracture occurred in the short life one though the loading frequency level is different. It is indicated that ultrasonic fatigue method is an effective method to investigate the fatigue properties in super-long life region.. |

It was melted in vacuum furnace in order to reduce the contents of unexpected inclusions so that higher mechanical properties can be achieved. After solution treatment, appropriate aging treatments were applied to some specimens to provide the desired strength levels. Ultra-long life fatigue properties were investigated by using both solution treated and aging hardened specimens under rotating bending fatigue. The effects of aging conditions were examined from the viewpoints of fatigue life, strength distribution, fatigue mechanism, and fracture morphology.. |

Significant interfacial voids were observed in the two Al-alloys during crack initiation and early fatigue crack growth process. Fatigue failure in Al-alloys could be ascribed to: the formation of a number of fatigue voids, their growth and coalescence, and the subsequent formation and propagation of macroscopic cracks. Moreover, fatigue crack growth rates of small cracks in these alloys were found to be greater than those of large cracks for the same stress intensity factor range.. |

Inclusions at subsurface are common sites for fatigue crack nucleation in these alloys when cycles to failure was > 107 cycles. A significant change in the slope of the S-N curve was observed accompanying the transition from surface to subsurface crack initiation. A deterministic model has been developed to predict the total fatigue life, i.e. crack initiation life and crack propagation life, from the measured inclusion sizes. The predicted fatigue strength agreed reasonably well with the experimental results. It is a tendency that smaller inclusions are associated with longer fatigue life. The results demonstrated that the portions of life attributed to subsurface crack initiation between 107 and 109 cycles are > 99%.. |

Fatigue strength increased by nitriding. Although the initiation site of fracture was the surface in the aged steel, it was the specimen suface at high stress levels and the interior at low stress levels in the nitrided steel. The main reason for the surface fracture was the surface embrittlement and the one for the interior fracture was the surfce hardening due to nitriding. As the results, S-N curves of the nitrided maraging steel showed a double staged curve.. |

Therefore, in finish cut, sharpness of a cutting edge has to be taken into consideration in cutting process. The purpose of this study is to find mechanism of cutting force occurrence at smaller undeformed chip thickness than sharpness radius of a cutting edge. In this study, effect of sharpness of a cutting edge on cutting force and its effect on burnishing force were investigated in orthogonal cutting process. Furthermore, contact length between a tool flank face and a workpiece during cutting was measured in order to consider the relation between the burnishing force and the contact length. As a result, principal conclusions reached were as follows. The following parameters were in inverse proportion to the nth power of undeformed chip thickness normalized by sharpness radius of a cutting edge: (i) cutting forces per unit area of chip section, ( ii) specific burnishing force defined as burning force divided by undeformed chip thickness and width of cut, and ( iii) specific burnishing length defined as burnishing length divided by undeformed chip thickness.. |

Although a dramatic fluctuation of crack growth rate was found in the propagation process of microstructurally small cracks, the mean value of crack growth rate can be evaluated by a simple mechanical parameter, σanl (l, crack length; n, constant), under high stress levels where small-scale yielding conditions are exceeded. This parameter is also effective for cracks larger than 1 to 2 mm under high stress levels, as long as the finite boundary effect of a specimen on the driving force of crack propagation is considered. The crack growth rate of the alloy was described as a function of stress amplitude and crack length in terms of two mechanical parameters, σanl and ΔK.

It is found that in the long-life region, the fatigue strength of a plain specimen is much higher at elevated temperatures than at room temperature, though the static strength decreases with the increase in temperature. The effect of temperature on the fatigue strength is examined in terms of the initiation and early growth behaviour of a small crack. The results are discussed in relation to the competition between the softening of the nickel matrix (γ phase) and the surface oxidation at elevated temperatures.. |

The purpose of this study is to propose a new method of detecting tool flank wear by using characteristic values of dynamic cutting process during steady-state cutting in turning operation. In this report, a simple calculation model of dynamic thrust force was proposed to derive equations of characteristic values from it, and effectiveness of the equations was experimentally verified under many cutting conditions and excitation conditions of a workpiece system. As a result of the calculations and the experiments, we reached conclusions that two characteristic values of dynamic cutting process, standard deviation of dynamic thrust force normalized by the standard deviation of workpiece vibration displacement and coefficient of correlation between dynamic thrust force and vibration displacement, have the following properties. (i) The characteristic values remained almost constant with variation of feed rate of a cutting tool and vibration amplitude of a workpiece. (ii) On condition that vibration frequency of a workpiece is constant, the characteristic values obtained under different cutting speeds can be standardized by normalizing the width of flank wear to the cutting speed. (iii) Tendency of calculated characteristic values with increase of vibration frequency was partly disagree with that of experimental values.. |

It has been found that the small crack growth rate could be evaluated by the small crack growth law at high stress levels, where the small-scale yielding conditions are exceeded and the Paris law is not applicable, irrespective of the temperature. The fatigue strength of plain specimens increased considerably in the long-life region at the elevated temperatures, because the early growth of a small crack in the range of 20-30 μm was suppressed. However, a crack grew faster at higher temperature after growing beyond about 50 μm due to the decrease of crack growth resistance. The fatigue life in the stable crack growth period can be predicted by the small crack growth law.. |

The influence of temperature on the small fatigue crack behavior in the alloy was investigated. It has been found that the fatigue limit of a plain specimen is determined by the limiting stress for small crack growth and the fatigue strength in the long life region is higher at elevated temperatures than at room temperature, because the early growth of small cracks is enormously suppressed at elevated temperatures. In the steady-state growth process, however, a crack grows faster at higher temperature due to the decrease of fatigue crack growth resistance. The small crack growth rate can be evaluated by the small crack growth law at both room and elevated temperatures.. |

The results were discussed from several viewpoints, including surface roughness, residual stress, and work hardening or softening due to CBN grinding. The fatigue strength increased upon CBN grinding at room temperature, primarily because of the generation of compressive residual stress in the surface region. However, in the case of Inconel 718, this marked increase in the fatigue strength tended to disappear at the elevated temperature due to the release of compressive residual stress and the decrease of crack growth resistance at an elevated temperature.. |

The fatigue strength was higher at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature when stress levels were low. This phenomenon was caused from that the growth of a crack smaller than the size of a few grains was suppresed at the elevated temperatures, though the growth of a larger crack was accelerated. The main reason for the suppression of the early growth of a small crack was a formation of oxide films on the specimen surface at the elevated temperatures.. |

The notch sensitivity was assessed in terms of the limiting stress for crack initiation σw1 and that for crack growth σw2, based on the Linear Notch Mechanics (LNM). It was found that the fatigue limits σw1, σw2 of notched specimen can be evaluated by LMN at each temperature. Although the notch sensitivity of Inconel 718 to the two fatigue limits is relatively low considering its high static strength at all the temperatures, especially to the fatigue limit for crack growth, it becomes more sensitive at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature. The results were discussed with the effect of temperature on the arresting behavior of fatigue crack growth.. |

The results were discussed from the viewpoints of surface roughness, residual stress and work hardening or softening due to the CBN grinding and oxides formed at elevated temperature. The fatigue strength was increased considerably at room temperature because the crack propagation was effectively suppressed by the compressive residual stress generated in the CBN grinding process. However, this marked increase of the fatigue strength tended to disappear at elevated temperature owing to the decreases of both the compressive residual stress and the resistance to crack propagation.. |

(2) When the stress level was higher than the fatigue limit, the fatigue life was mainly controlled by the growth life of a crack smaller than 1 mm. (3) The fatigue limit was a limiting stress for the crack propagation. (4) At low stress levels (σa/σ0.2a: stress amplitude, (σ0.2:0.2% proof stress), the crack growth rate was determined by the stress intensity factor range ΔK; and at high stress levels (σa/σ0.2>0.6), it was determined by the small crack growth law.. |

In this study, rotating bending fatigue tests were carried out for Inconel 718 at room temperature and elevated temperatures of 300 °C, 400 °C and 500 °C to investigate the notch sensitivity at the elevated temperatures. It was found that the fatigue limits of plain specimens were higher at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature, which might be due to the suppression of the crack initiation at the elevated temperatures, however, the resistance to crack growth became smaller at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature. Therefore, the fatigue strength of a notched specimen, in which a crack initiated easily owing to the stress concentration introduced, was lower at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature. Consequently, the fatigue strength reduction factor was larger at the elevated temperatures than at room temperature.. |
