The aim of this work is to present two alternative burst speed assessment methods under development based on the Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD) and a global stability criterion, respectively. In the scope of the fracture mechanics assessment, the failure modes hoop-burst and rim-peeling are investigated with semicircular surface cracks modelled at the critical regions on the turbine disk.

The certification specification requires that a gas turbine aero-engine must hold 5 minutes at overspeed conditions without critical failure. Therefore, instead of experimental proof from spin-tests using test-disks similar to engine components, it is considered to use simple specimen with similar test conditions compared to real overspeed scenarios. These test conditions, or stress fields are determined using arithmetical method, e.g. finite element method, with consideration of fracture mechanics under quasi-static conditions with a given rotational speed. Failure modes like hoop burst and rim peeling are considered during determination of stress fields. Various crack-tip parameters are used to explore the similarity of stress field between simple specimen and real overspeed scenarios. Additionally, probabilistic aspects and the implementation of a global stability criterion for overspeed analysis are also considered.

T1 - Kennwertermittlung für die Bewertung der Integrität einer Turbinenscheibe bei Überdrehzahl N2 - Turbinenscheiben sind thermisch und mechanisch hochbeanspruchte, sicherheitsrelevante Komponenten in Gasturbinen. Ihre Integrität wird in Bauteiltests unter Überdrehzahlbedingungen nachgewiesen. Kontext des Aufsatzes ist die Erarbeitung einer zusätzlichen Bewertungsebene auf der Grundlage von Versuchen unter monotoner Beanspruchung, die die Beanspruchung im Bauteil realistisch wiedergeben soll. Dazu werden zwei Typen von bruchmechanischen Proben anwendungsnah ausgelegt und aus einer Turbinenscheibe ausgeschnitten: Der erste Typ ist eine biaxiale Probe, die die Beanspruchung und den Dehnungsbehinderungszustand am Diaphragm der Turbinenscheibe abbildet, die zweite eine bruchmechanische Probe, die die einachsige Beanspruchung und den Dehnungsbehinderungszustand am Bore der Turbinenscheibe wiedergibt. Im Rahmen eines Schadentoleranzansatzkonzepts ist anschließend jeweils ein halbelliptischer Riss an den genannten Stellen der Turbinenscheibe zu betrachten. Mittels numerischer Berechnungen wird ein kritischer Punkt auf der Rissfront des Risses am Diaphragm bestimmt, dort wo die höchste Rissspitzenbelastung (J-Integral) auftritt. Auf der Basis der Rissspitzenbelastung, des Dehnungsbehinderungszustands und des entsprechenden Spannungsverhältnisses an diesem kritischen Punkt wird eine Kreuzprobe mit einem Durchriss konzipiert, die diese Verhältnisse im Bauteil widerspiegelt. Die Versuche werden unter der Temperatur am Diaphragm der Turbinenscheibe durchgeführt. Die J-R-Kurve und die plastische Kollapsgrenze werden bestimmt. Auch die einachsigen Versuche werden unter der Temperatur am Bore der Turbinenscheibe durchgeführt. Die Zugprobe enthält halbelliptische Oberflächenrisse. Ähnlich wie bei der Auslegung der Kreuzproben werden die Rissspitzenbelastung, der Dehnungsbehinderungszustand und das Spannungsverhältnis vergleichbar mit der Turbinenscheibe eingestellt. Die J-R-Kurve und die plastische Kollapsgrenze werden bestimmt. Mit den Versuchsergebnissen werden die kritischen Lasten für verschiedene Versagensmechanismen (instabiles Risswachstum, plastischer Kollaps) der bruchmechanischen Proben ermittelt, die der kritischen Überdrehzahl der Turbinenscheibe entsprechen.

ED - Yadroitsava, I. ED - Du Plessies, A. ED - McDonald, E. T1 - Structural integrity II: fatigue properties N2 - If a component is cyclically loaded, its load carrying capacity is considerably lower than in the monotonic loading case. This general observation applies in particular to L-PBF parts. The causes of this are mainly material defects such as pores and unwelded regions (Chapter 8) and a pronounced surface roughness in the as-built condition (Chapter 9). In addition, effects due to the anisotropy of the microstructure (Chapter 6) and a complex residual stress pattern (Chapter 7) play an important role. A consequence is that common strategies of fatigue assessment cannot be transferred to L-PBF applications without modifications. Due to the inhomogeneity of the material, the determination of representative material properties and the transfer to the component is a problem, and this is also the case with regard to the consideration of defects, surface roughness and residual stresses. The chapter gives a brief introduction to these problem areas.

The aim is an investigation of the effect of the geometrical parameters toe radius, flank angle, reinforcement and secondary notches such as roughness or undercuts. The influence of these parameters is discussed both individually and in combination; however, excluding statistical distributions of them and the material data. The results, when compared with conventional FAT classes for butt welds, are encouraging with respect to a potential contribution of IBESS to the discussion of more advanced quality criteria for welds.

In the present second part, one focus is on welding residual stresses, their characteristics and stability under cyclic loading and their effect on structural integrity. Subsequently, features will be addressed which are essential for applying fracture mechanics to overall fatigue life and fatigue strength considerations of weldments. These comprise fatigue life relevant initial crack sizes and multiple crack initiation and Propagation due to various stress peaks along the weld toe.

These comprise the determination of the cyclic crack driving force for all stages of fatigue crack propagation, in particular for the short crack stage where the crack driving force has to be determined for elastic-plastic deformation and the gradual build-up of the crack closure phenomenon. Special emphasis is put on a fatigue damage relevant specification of the initial crack size. Different approaches in the literature are discussed. Another important aspect is the adequate treatment of multiple crack propagation. Finally, the discussion is illustrated by an example of a butt weld made of a medium strength steel.

Moreover, the physically sound introduction of mass transport and coupling mechanisms due to environmentally assisted effects could be realised in this framework. The objective consists of the application of the phase-field Approach towards the simulation of environmentally assisted material degradation with the advantage of a non-required predefined crack path and a mesh-independent non-local formulation that facilitates the damage evolution with respect to material softening. The sharp crack is regularised by the introduction of a phase-field order parameter leading to a diffusive crack formulation. Besides the equations originating from the linear momentum balance an additional evolution equation for the crack phase-field is introduced. Furthermore, mass transport is simulated by a Diffusion equation. The description delivered by the variational phase-field framework is able to simulate crack propagation according to published numerical test cases. Additionally, the calculation of stress intensity factors is possible as well as crack resistance curves that describe stable crack propagation.

The acronym IBESS stands for the topic of this Special Issue (in German: „Integrale Methode zu Bruchmechanischen Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit von Schweißverbindungen). Eight partners were involved.

A numerical framework within the phase-field approach is presented with an embrittlement-based coupling mechanism. The underlying functionals are expressed in terms of the displacement, mass concentration and crack phase-field. Within the phase-field approach the modelling of sharp crack discontinuities is replaced by a diffusive crack model facilitating crack initiation and complex crack topologies without the requirement of a predefined crack path. The isotropic hardening of the elasto-plastic deformation model and the local fracture criterion are affected by the species concentration. This allows for embrittlement and leads to an accelerated crack propagation. An extended mass transport equation for hydrogen embrittlement, accounting for mechanical stresses and deformations, is implemented. For stabilisation purposes a staggered scheme is applied to solve the system of partial differential equations by a multi-field finite-element method. A thermodynamically consistent coupling relation that accommodates the required mechanisms is presented.

For this purpose, the global weld parameters, such as the weld toe radius, the flank angle, the excess weld metal, local secondary notches (in the present study as a measure of surface imperfections) and inclusions sizes have been determined as statistical distributions for different joint types and geometries and two steels of different strengths. The results are in line with literature data and reveal the potential of the theoretical approach to predict the correct trends. The combination with an advanced weld quality system has been demonstrated to be possible.

T1 - Fatigue strength and fracture mechanics - A general perspective N2 - Common fracture mechanics based fatigue considerations are usually limited to the residual lifetime determination of so-called long cracks. The extension of this concept to the total lifetime, as in the S-N curve approach, requires an adequate description of short crack propagation which cannot be based on the Delta K concept, and it must consider the crack closure phenomenon as well as its gradual build-up at the short crack stage. Further, it has to provide a meaningful definition of initial crack dimensions and a solution for the multiple crack problem at stress levels higher than the fatigue limit as it is specific for some configurations such as weldments. This paper aims at a discussion of all these points and offers possible solutions which are illustrated by examples taken from the German IBESS project on fracture mechanics based determination of the fatigue strength of weldments, the results of which will be discussed in more detail in this Special issue.

The most common use of NDT is to find flaws in components. In dynamically loaded components, flaws grow, and if they are not detected in time and no corrective measures are taken they can reach critical sizes. When a flaw reaches a critical size, it endangers the structural integrity of the component and will likely cause the component to fail. To detect flaws before they reach a critical size, components are inspected in fixed time intervals with non-destructive testing systems. In order to determine the amount of time between inspections, three variables are necessary: the critical size of the flaw, the flaw propagation speed and the size of the flaw that can be reliably detected by NDT. All three variables are, to a certain extent, stochastic. The critical size of the flaw and flaw propagation speed are questions of fracture mechanics. The size of the flaw that can be reliably detected by NDT is predicted by POD curves. The POD is determined for a given inspection scenario. The inspection scenario includes the NDT system, the component geometry and the type of the flaw. If one of these changes, the POD will also change and needs to be recalculated. As a result, the design of a dynamically loaded safety-relevant components is an iterative process in which a geometry is sought that provides an optimum between structural integrity and inspectability. A model that describes the iterative process for the design of the safe components with examples from praxis will be presented.
