Creep-fatigue life evaluation of high chromium ferritic steel under non-proportional loading
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 38
Abstract
T Multiaxial creep-fatigue tests under non-proportional loading conditions with various strain rates were carried out using a hollow cylinder specimen of a high chromium ferritic steel at 823K in air to discuss the influence of non-proportional loading on failure life. Strain paths employed were a push-pull loading and a circle loading. The push-pull loading test is proportional strain path test. The circle loading test is non-proportional strain path test in which sinusoidal waveforms of axial and shear strains have 90 degree phase difference. The failure life is affected largely by the strain rate and the non-proportional loading. This paper presents a modified strain range for life evaluation considering the strain rate based on a non-proportional strain parameter proposed by authors. The strain range is a suitable parameter for life evaluation of tested material under non-proportional loading at high temperature

On the applicability of multi-surface, two-surface and non-linear kinematic hardening models in multiaxial fatigue
In this work, a comparison between NLK and Mróz-Garud’s multi-surface formulations is presented. A unified common notation is introduced to describe the involved equations, showing that the Mróz-Garud model can b...
Role of multiaxial stress state in the hydrogen-assisted rolling-contact fatigue in bearings for wind turbines
Offshore wind turbines often involve important engineering challenges such as the improvement of hydrogen embrittlement resistance of the turbine bearings. These elements frequently suffer the so-called phenomenon...
A new method for the experimental study of fatigue behaviour of thermoplastic materials
Nowadays most industrial realities undergo a strong push to improve cost-effectiveness, productivity and quality of manufactured products. In particular we focussed our attention in the area of design of plastic structur...
Mechanical behavior of a sandwich with corrugated GRP core: numerical modeling and experimental validation
In this work the mechanical behaviour of a core reinforced composite sandwich structure is studied. The sandwich employs a Glass Reinforced Polymer (GRP) orthotropic material for both the two external skins and t...
The influence of fibre orientation on the post-cracking tensile behaviour of steel fibre reinforced self-compacting concrete
Adding fibres to concrete provides several advantages, especially in terms of controlling the crack opening width and propagation after the cracking onset. However, distribution and orientation of the fibres towa...
