Modeling the lifetime reduction due to the superposition of TMF and HCF loadings in cast iron alloys
(2016)
The superposition of small amplitude, high frequency loading cycles (HCF) to slow, large amplitude loading cycles (TMF) can significantly reduce the fatigue life. In this work, the combined TMF+HCF loading has been experimentally investigated for a cast iron alloy. In particular, the influence of the HCF frequency of the HCF amplitude and of the location of the superposed HCF cycles has been assessed. It was observed that the HCF frequency has a limited impact on the TMF fatigue life. On the other side, the HCF-strain amplitude has a highly non-linear influence on the TMF fatigue life. A simple estimate for the fatigue life reduction due to the superposed HCF cycles has been derived from fracture mechanics considerations. It is assumed that the number of propagation cycles up to failure can be neglected after a threshold for the HCF loading has been reached. The model contains only two adjustable parameters and can be combined with any TMF life prediction model. The model predictions are compared with the test results for a large range of TMF+HCF loading conditions.
Thermal barrier coatings allow increasing the operating temperature and efficiency of land-, sea-, or air-based turbines. As failure of the coating may result in serious damage of the turbine, reliable estimation of its lifetime is essential. To assess the lifetime, cyclic tests are conceived to combine thermal loading by heating the surface of the coating with laser irradiation and nondestructive methods for damage determination. Using laser irradiation allows a high reproducibility of the thermal load. The temperature of the sample surface during thermal loading is determined by an infrared-camera which also enables the possibility to detect damage in the coating via thermography. Additionally, four acoustic sensors, attached to the experimental setup, are used to detect damage in the sample and determine the source of acoustic events. Results of acoustic emission correlate well with thermographic images that visualize the formation and evolution of damage through delaminations in the samples.
The determination of critical failure parameters during thermal shock requires a time and space resolved temperature measurement of the sample. High frequency pyrometry is a suitable technique for such a measurement task, which usually requires the knowledge of the optical properties of the investigated material. Another challenge is the infrared transparency of materials to be checked in the wavelength range of the pyrometer. The thermal shock disks are very thin, due to the need of homogeneous temperature distribution and to maintain a two-dimensional problem. To allow a pyrometric temperature measurement a universal calibration method for high frequency infrared cameras has been developed. Pyrometry in various media was demanded, as well as the estimation of optical properties (reflection, transmittance and emission) for the selected ceramics to be tested.
In diesem Forschungsvorhaben erfolgte eine Überprüfung der Übertragbarkeit der Werkstoff- und Rechenmodelle für die Lebensdauervorhersage von ATL-Heißteilen unter TMF-Beanspruchung auf eine andere Werkstoffklasse, d. h. auf eine austenitische Gusseisenlegierung mit Kugelgraphit. Dafür wurde die Legierung EN-GJSA-XNiSiCr35-5-2 (Ni-Resist D-5S) ausgewählt. Zunächst wurde für diesen Werkstoff eine experimentelle Datenbasis geschaffen, da diese vor Beginn des Vorhabens nicht ausreichend war. Dazu wurden Zug-, Kriech-, LCF- und TMF-Versuche durchgeführt, die der Kalibrierung der Modelle dienten. Unter TMF-Belastung zeigte der untersuchte Werkstoff ein stark abweichendes Verhalten von den im vorangegangenen Vorhaben untersuchten ferritischen SiMo-Legierungen: Der Werkstoff Ni-Resist zeigte insgesamt eine vergleichbare Festigkeit unter OP- und IP-Bedingungen, während die ferritischen Legierungen unter IP-Beanspruchung eine deutlich höhere Festigkeit aufweisen. Mit zunehmenden Temperaturen und Haltezeiten unter Zugspannungen wurden dagegen beim Werkstoff Ni-Resist Hinweise auf Kriechschädigung gefunden, die schädigungsrelevant sind. Auch dies ist ein deutlicher Unterschied zu den SiMo-Legierungen. Das Spannungs-Verformungs-Verhalten in den LCF- und TMF-Versuchen wird durch das Modell auch für den neuen Werkstoff überwiegend gut beschrieben. Das Gleiche gilt für die Lebensdauervorhersage, die mit Ausnahme der Prüftemperatur 900 °C innerhalb eines Fak-tors zwei liegt. Eine Verifikation des Modells erfolgte mit Hilfe eines Bauteilversuchs an einem Abgassammler, der abwechselnd mit heißem und kaltem Gas durchströmt wurde. Ziel der Bauteilsimulation war insbesondere die Vorhersage der Rissbildungsorte. Eine Vorhersage der exakten Lebensdauer wurde nicht erwartet, da das Bauteil mit einer Gusshaut behaftet war, während die für die Kalibrierung des Lebensdauermodells verwendeten Versuche an bearbeiteten, glatten Proben ohne Gusshaut durchgeführt wurden. Die überwiegende Anzahl der experimentell ermittelten Rissorte wurden vorhergesagt. Schließlich war ein wesentliches Ziel des Vorhabens, den Einfluss von HCF-Schwingungen auf die TMF-Lebensdauer vertieft experimentell zu untersuchen und das bereits bestehende Lebensdauermodell auf HCF-Überlagerung zu erweitern. Dazu wurde zunächst die Daten-basis aus dem Vorgängervorhaben am Bespiel von SiMo 4.05 deutlich ausgebaut, um die verschiedenen Einflussparameter zu erfassen. Es wurde ein Ansatz entwickelt, in dem die Lebensdauerminderung durch die überlagerten HCF-Schwingungen abgebildet wird. Dabei wird davon ausgegangen, dass ab einer bestimmten Risstiefe die Überlagerung der HCF-Schwingungen die Rissausbreitung stark beschleunigt. Der Zeitpunkt, wann diese Beschleunigung eintritt, wird als maßgeblich für die Lebensdauerminderung angesehen. Mit diesem Ansatz lassen sich die Lebensdauern für beide Werkstoffe in guter Übereinstimmung mit dem Experiment vorhersagen.
Pre-sintered preform (PSP) brazing is employed in the repair of gas turbine components made of nickel-based alloys, including restoring the surface and dimensions of turbine blades and vanes. This study investigates the fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of Alloy 247DS specimens with side-brazed PSP material, mimicking a typical sandwich structure formed during such repairs. FCG tests were conducted at an elevated temperature of 950 °C and a stress ratio (R) of 0.1 on specimens with PSP layer thicknesses of 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4.5 mm to assess the influence of PSP thickness on fatigue crack growth behavior. Fractographic and metallographic analyses were performed to elucidate the underlying crack growth mechanisms and the microstructural characteristics of both materials. The results revealed that a crack consistently initiated in the PSP material, originating from the starter notch, particularly at the specimen corner during the pre-cracking phase. Additionally, crack propagation in the PSP material consistently advanced ahead of the crack in the Alloy 247DS. This crack growth behavior is attributed to the difference in elastic properties and microstructural differences between the PSP and base material. Metallographic analysis revealed the presence of porosity and brittle precipitates within the PSP material, which led to faster intergranular crack growth. Conversely, Alloy 247DS exhibited transgranular crack growth, contributing to the observed crack propagation behavior. This study demonstrates the applicability of standard FCG testing methods and an approach to characterize the FCG behavior in sandwich specimens, where crack growth occurs simultaneously in both materials, providing a preliminary understanding of crack growth behavior in Alloy 247DS with side-brazed PSP.
KupferDigital mechanical testing datasets: Stress relaxation and low-cycle fatigue (LCF) tests
(2024)
The KupferDigital project deals with the development of a data ecosystem for digital materials research on the basis of ontology-based digital representations of copper and copper alloys. This document provides exemplary mechanical testing datasets for training the developed KupferDigital infrastructures. Different types of cast copper alloys were provided for this research and their mechanical testing (stress relaxation and low-cycle fatigue) was performed in the accredited materials testing laboratory, while the test results were reported according to the DIN/ISO standards and attached with the maximum possible metadata about the sample history, equipment, and calibration. The attached content file consisted of the obtained primary raw testing data as well as the secondary datasets of these tests containing the detailed metadata of mechanical testing methods. Such test data files are processed by the KupferDigital digital tools to be converted to standardized machine-readable data files.
High-throughput creep evaluation of IN738LC in bending using digital image correlation at 850 °C
(2025)
High-temperature alloys, when used in structural applications, undergo slow time-dependent deformation known as creep. Assessing creep behavior is critical for estimating the in-service life of these alloys. Conventionally, uniaxial creep tests are widely conducted at elevated temperatures to determine creep rates. In recent years, bending creep of cantilevers, when combined with digital image correlation (DIC), has emerged as a promising high-throughput technique for rapidly estimating creep life. However, the applicability of bending creep above 700 ◦C for high-temperature alloys using DIC has not been fully established. In this work, we compare uniaxial creep rates of the nickel-based superalloy IN738LC with bending creep rates measured at 850 ◦C using high-temperature DIC. The bending creep data show excellent agreement with uniaxial creep results in the stress range of 240–360 MPa. The measured creep xponent, a critical rate-determining parameter, is found to be ~8 for both uniaxial and bending creep, with the rate data scattered within a factor of two. An in-house experimental setup was developed to perform bending creep tests at high temperatures, with strain monitored through DIC. Our results demonstrate that bending creep, combined with DIC, provides a reliable and efficient method for creep testing of high-temperature alloys. Compared to conventional uniaxial creep experiments, this approach requires significantly less time and material, thereby reducing effort, energy, and cost. We anticipate that this technique will serve as a foundation for testing precious high-temperature materials. For instance, in ongoing rapid discoveries of advanced alloys, in-service creep life can be evaluated much faster with reduced material requirements. Moreover, this method holds strong potential for application to high-entropy alloys and additively manufactured alloys designed for demanding high-temperature environments.
Bei der isothermen und nichtisothermen Ermüdung (LCF und TMF) von warmfesten Gusseisenwerkstoffen wird mit zunehmender Dauer der Ermüdungsbelastung eine Schädigung des Werkstoffes infolge der mechanischen und thermischen Belastung in Form von plastischer Verformung, Rissbildung und -Wachstum, Porenbildung und Oxidation beobachtet. Diese Schädigungen führen vor dem eigentlichen Versagen (Probenbruch) zu einer signifikanten Verringerung der Steifigkeit. Am Beispiel des warmfesten austenitischen Gusseisens mit Kugelgraphit EN-GJSA-XNiSiCr35-5-2 werden Untersuchungen zum Einfluss der verschiedenen Schädigungsarten auf die Änderung der Steifigkeit vorgestellt.
Experimental and analytical investigation of the TMF-HCF lifetime behavior of two cast iron alloys
(2017)
The combined loading Thermomechanical Fatigue (TMF) with High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) has been experimentally investigated for two cast iron alloys. Both alloys contain globular graphite nodules but the first one has a ferritic structure while the second one has an austenitic crystal structure. In particular, the influences of the HCF frequency, of the HCF loading amplitude and of the location of the superposed HCF cycles have been investigated. It was observed that the HCF frequency has a limited impact on the fatigue life. On the other side, the HCF-strain amplitude has a highly non-linear influence on the fatigue life. The experimental results can be understood in terms of a fracture mechanics based damage mechanism: Cracks quickly initiate due to the TMF loading and the growth of the cracks up to a few mm controls the fatigue life. If HCF-loading cycles are superposed, cyclic crack propagation dramatically accelerates after a threshold has been reached. This threshold is regarded as controlling the fatigue life reduction. The previous ideas have been expressed in a model that can be very simply applied to estimate the fatigue life reduction ratio due to the superposed HCF cycles. It only contains two adjustable parameters and can be combined with any TMF life assessment model.
