TY - CONF A1 - Baensch, Franziska A1 - Baer, Wolfram A1 - Wossidlo, Peter A1 - Habib, Abdel Karim T1 - Non-threshold acoustic emission analysis of damage evolution in pipe segments of steel S355J2H under bending load N2 - Four-point bending tests were carried out to analyze the acoustic characteristics of damage development in pipe segments made of steel, grade S355J2H, being 2.5 m long with an outer diameter of 168 mm and 16 mm wall thickness. To induce stable crack growth, the pipe segments were pre-damaged by a 90°circumferential notch in the middle of the pipe length. While the pipe was quasi-statically loaded, microscopic damage and plastic deformation accumulated to form a macroscopic crack that grew through the pipe wall until leakage. For acoustic emission (AE) monitoring, four broadband sensors of type VS 900 M were mounted close to the notch. Continuous AE signal detection was performed by the non-threshold method. Advantages and disadvantages of the non-threshold AE monitoring compared to a commonly employed method analyzing only signals exceeding a predefined threshold are discussed. The results of AE analysis are compared to additional information on the crack growth detected by the direct current potential drop (DCPD) technique. These studies were carried out in the course of the interdisciplinary research project AGIFAMOR, Ageing infrastructures - distributed acoustic monitoring of pipes at BAM.

A1 - Baer, Wolfram T1 - Investigations for indications of deliberate blasting on the front bulkhead of the ro-ro ferry MV Estonia N2 - The roll-on-roll-off passenger ferry MV ESTONIA sank during the night of 28 September 1994 in the Baltic Sea. In October 2000, divers recovered two palm-sized test pieces from the front bulkhead of the wreck. The investigators analysed these specimens to determine whether there were any indications of deliberate blasting. Since the wreck had been submerged for almost six years, it was clear that chemical traces would not be present on the surfaces of the test pieces. Therefore, the investigators performed comparative tests on shipbuilding steel to find a microstructural criterion that exclusively characterises a blast. The shipyard Jos. L. Meyer, Germany, had built the ESTONIA and supplied shipbuilding steel plates similar to that used for building the vessel in 1979/1980. The comparative tests comprised mechanical tests, shot peening tests and blasting tests using different explosives. Testing demonstrated that blasting always formed twinned ferrite grains in the microstructure over the whole cross-section of each of the 8 mm thick comparative plates. Although one of the original test pieces of the ESTONIA showed deformation twins, this was only confined up to 0.4 mm underneath the surfaces and not spread over the whole cross-section. Comparative shot peening tests produced the very same pattern of subsurface deformation twins. Therefore, the twins detected in the microsection of the test pieces of the ESTONIA wreck traced back to the shot peening process performed by the shipyard in 1979/1980 and not to a deliberate blast.

T1 - The impact of ductile cast iron fracture behaviour on dynamic fracture mechanics R-curve testing using key curve methods N2 - Dynamic fracture mechanics characteristics are required for design and safety proof of advanced ductile cast iron (DCI) components. In this paper, the analytical compliance ratio (CR) and numerical finite element (FE) key curve methods were investigated for dynamic Rcurve testing. Two DCI materials, a purely ferritic and a ferritic one with 18 % of pearlite, were tested at room temperature (RT) and -40 °C. The special focus is on the impact of the materials damage and fracture behaviour on performance and limitations of the investigated methods. Systematic metallographic and fractographic microstructural analyses were performed accompanying the test program. Summarizing systematics of the specific damage behaviour and fracture mechanisms were developed taking microstructure, loading rate, specimen geometry and test temperature into account. There has been a change from ductile to brittle fracture mechanism observed at -40 °C with ferritic DCI and even at RT with ferritic-pearlitic DCI. The ferritic-pearlitic DCI did not show Rcurve behaviour at -40 °C and only single Juc values could be determined. Furthermore, with ferritic-pearlitic DCI, random pearlite shares in the ligament caused the relation between loading rate, force-deflection record and crack extension not to remain uniquely defined. Therefore, the FE key curve method proofed not to be applicable since the FE model was based on homogeneous isotropic material and ductile failure mode only. The analytical CR key curve method worked well only with selected combinations of microstructure, specimen geometry and temperature. In summary it has to be concluded that a robust, accurate and sufficiently simple dynamic key curve method that was suited for application in quality control of industrial relevant DCI qualities cannot be provided currently.

For the latter, a new post-test analysis method was established. AE is found more sensitive to crack initiation than DCPD. Formation of mesoscopic and macroscopic cracks as well as their closure and the resulting friction generate weighted peak frequencies below 400 kHz, whereas microscopic cracking produces AE with broad band spectra identifiable by weighted peak frequencies above 400 kHz. Critical states alike the maximum load level and the leak opening were accompanied by peak amplitudes above 85 dBAE. This rather fundamental study provides a data base for possibly developing advanced strategies of detection and alarm systems based on acoustic monitoring of pipelines, or at least, steel structures.

Das Rohrsegment wurde durch einen 90°- Außenumfangskerb in der Mitte der Rohrlänge definiert vorgeschädigt, um davon ausgehend ein stabiles Risswachstum zu induzieren und die Analyse von Schallemission aus Rissereignissen, die am Kerb eintraten, sicherzustellen. Für die Schallemissionsmessung wurden vier Breitbandsensoren max. 105 mm vom Kerb entfernt montiert. Die Signalaufzeichnung erfolgte kontinuierlich und schwellwertunabhängig. Für die Gleichstrompotentialmessung wurde ein Gleichstrom von 300 A eingeleitet und der Potentialabfall über dem Kerb mit fünf Sonden entlang des Kerbs gemessen. Beide Messverfahren identifizieren die Rissinitiierung sowie Veränderungen im Risswachstum. Die detektierten Schallemissionsereignisse werden, unter Berücksichtigung spektraler Eigenschaften, mit fortschreitender Belastung und Rissentwicklung analysiert. Diese Studien wurden im Rahmen des interdisziplinären Forschungsprojekts AGIFAMOR, Aging infrastructure - Faseroptisches Monitoring von Rohrleitungen, an der BAM durchgeführt. T2 - 22.

These features are closely related to the question of how the cast materials can be produced without structural defects and graphite degenerations such as for example chunky graphite. Although the chunky graphite degeneration superficially seems to be well known, its metallurgical background is still controversially discussed, appropriate field-tested non-destructive tools for its quantification in castings are lacking and the knowledge on its impact on material properties is fairly limited. Addressing this status, the article is providing a current overview on the subject. Existing theories on formation and growth mechanisms of chunky graphite are briefly reviewed. Furthermore, from a metallurgical point of view, causes for the appearance of chunky graphite as well as preventive measures are concisely summarized. Particular attention is paid to the morphology of chunky graphite and how it can be characterized by destructive and non-destructive techniques. Special emphasis was laid on providing a comprehensive overview on the impact of chunky graphite on strength, ductility, fatigue limit, fatigue crack growth rate as well as fracture tough-ness of ferritic SGI materials based on experimental data. Moreover, conclusions for the assessment of castings affected by chunky graphite are drawn.

ED - Zimmermann, Martina T1 - Gezielte Werkstoffprüfung zur fail-safe-Bauteilauslegung am Beispiel eines Achsschenkels N2 - Bei der Auslegung von Achsschenkeln für Nutzfahrzeuge wird für den Überlastfall ein fail-safe-Kriterium (kontrolliertes Versagen) als Basisphilosophie angesetzt. Gefordert wird, dass sich der Achsschenkel auch unter Akzeptanz begrenzten Risswachstums hinreichend elastisch-plastisch verformen kann, ohne dass es zum Bruch kommt. Der Fahrer soll anschließend anhand der bleibenden Verformungen bemerken können, dass mit seinem Fahrzeug etwas nicht in Ordnung ist. Eine Voraussetzung für dieses Bauteilverhalten ist eine hinreichende Bruchzähigkeit des Werkstoffs. Diese, wie auch die Rissspitzenbeanspruchung, müssen ermittelt werden, um den bruchmechanischen Sicherheitsnachweis führen zu können. Zur Ermittlung der mechanisch-technologischen und bruchmechanischen Werkstoffeigenschaften wurde ein Prüfkonzept entwickelt, bei dem die Proben an der potenziell kritischen Stelle direkt aus den geschmiedeten Achsschenkeln entnommen werden. Die experimentelle Werkstoffcharakterisierung bildet dann die Beanspruchungsbedingungen beim Überlastereignis ab. Im Rahmen der Produktion stehen jedoch nur Kerbschlagarbeitswerte zur Verfügung und aufwändige bruchmechanische Versuche sollen vermieden werden. Deshalb wurde eine Korrelation zur Abschätzung der vorhandenen Bruchzähigkeit aus der Kerbschlagarbeit herangezogen. Es ergibt sich eine Ergebnismatrix, die die Einflussgrößen Versagenswahrscheinlichkeit, Temperatur und Bruchzähigkeit verknüpft. Abschließend wird ein erster Vergleich der abgeschätzten mit den experimentell ermittelten Bruchzähigkeitswerten gezogen. Dieser weist aus, dass die abgeschätzten Werte geringfügig konservativ sind.
