RISInitial Crack Extension in Two Intermediate-Strength Aluminum Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three-point bend tests were conducted to examine the geometry dependence of JIc in two intermediate-strength aluminum alloys, 2024-T351 and 7005-T6351. The amounts of crack growth at selected ...
50-Fold Difference in Region-II Fatigue Crack Propagation Resistance of Titanium Alloys: A Grain-Size Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fatigue crack growth rates (da/dN) in ambient laboratory air have been determined for a wide variety of materials from four basic α + β titanium alloy systems. Each material was cyclically ...
Enhancement of Fatigue Crack Growth and Fracture Resistance in Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn Through Microstructural Modification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Significant enhancement in fatigue crack propagation resistance and plane strain fracture toughness was obtained in commercial purity Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn through microstructural modification. ...
Effect of Ripple Load on Stress-Corrosion Cracking in Structural Steels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The presence of small ripple loading can, under certain circumstances, significantly reduce time-to-failure and threshold stress intensity for stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) of steels. A predictive ...
The Cracking of Ti-6Al-4V Alloys Under Sustained Load in Ambient Air
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study reveals that degradation in load-carrying capacity owing to sustained-load cracking (SLC) can occur in alloys of the Ti-6Al-4V family. Each of eight alloys tested with fatigue-precracked ...
