Die sichere Auslegung von Bauteilen kommt an der Anwendung bruchmechanischer Methoden heute nicht mehr vorbei. Das vorliegende Buch bietet eine Einführung in diese Methoden mit besonderen Schwerpunkten auf dem aktuellen Stand der bruchmechanischen Kennwertermittlung und den Methoden der analytischen bruchmechanischen Bauteilbewertung. Es beschreibt die Mechanismen von Risswachstum und Bruch, die grundlegenden Konzepte der Bruchmechanik, die analytische Ermittlung der Rissspitzenbelastung in Bauteilen sowie die Anwendung der Bruchmechanik in unterschiedlichen Kontexten. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der praktischen Anwendung u. a. anhand von Demonstrationsbeispielen, die im Detail nachvollzogen werden können.
The impact of crack closure and environmental effects on the experimental determination of the fatigue crack propagation threshold is a major problem for the assessment of cyclically loaded components, especially at low stress ratios 𝑅. In this work, the influence of the experimental procedure and air humidity on d𝑎∕d𝑁 − 𝛥𝐾 data at different 𝑅 is discussed. Unlike the results at 𝑅 = −1, the threshold values obtained at 𝑅 ≈ 0.8, i.e. under negligible crack closure levels, show a very small scatter band regardless of the variation of the test parameters and environmental conditions.
A fracture mechanics model which shall be applied to the fatigue strength determination of weldments has to focus on various aspects such as: (a) the description of mechanical and physical short fatigue crack extension which is characterised by yielding conditions which do not permit the application of the common ΔK concept and by the gradual build-up of the crack closure effect, (b) a consistent methodology for determining the initial crack size, (c) based on this, the determination of a fatigue limit, (d) the treatment of multiple crack propagation at load levels above this limit, (e) the variation of the local geometry along the weld toe, and (f) statistical effects.The paper gives alimited overview of the work the authors did in this field during the last years within the German project cluster IBESS. A model is presented and briefly discussed which covers the questions above.
Ermüdungsrisse gehen in technischen Materialien in der Regel von Werkstoffdefekten auf oder nahe der Oberfläche aus. Bei Schweißverbindungen können Schweißnahtdefekte, z. B. oberflächennahe Schlackeneinschlüsse die Risseinleitungsphase erheblich verkürzen, so dass der Hauptteil der Lebensdauer auf die Phase der Kurzriss- und zu geringerem Anteil auf die Langrissausbreitung entfällt. Bei nichtgeschweißten Bauteilen aus technischen Werkstoffen starten Ermüdungsrisse häufig an Einschlüssen, oberflächennahen Poren oder anderen Ungänzen. Einerseits ermöglicht dies prinzipiell die Anwendung bruchmechanischer Methoden zur Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit, andererseits müssen die Methoden in der Lage sein, spezielle Aspekte des Kurzrisswachstums wie den graduellen Aufbau des Rissschließeffekts und die lokale Rissspitzenplastizität zu erfassen. Im Beitrag werden ein geeignetes analytisches Modell sowie erste Validierungen an Proben aus verschiedenen Aluminiumlegierungen vorgestellt. Der abschließende Teil des Beitrags geht auf Besonderheiten von Schweißverbindungen (Schweißnahtdefekte, Eigenspannungen etc.) im Kontext des vorgestellten Modells ein. Eine Erweiterung des Modells für Schweißverbindungen aus Stahl wird im Rahmen eines kürzlich gestarteten DFG-AiF-Clusterprojekts erfolgen.
The idea to determine the fatigue strength of weldments by means fracture mechanics was originally based on the empirical observation that the major portion of the fatigue life in weldments is frequently spent in crack propagation. The present paper gives a brief overview on the basic principles of fracture mechanics-based determination of fatigue strength and on special features which have to be considered for weldments. Based on this information, the ongoing research project IBESS is introduced and briefly reviewed.
Die Sicherheit von Radsatzwellen beruht gegenwärtig auf zwei Säulen: der Schwingfestigkeitsauslegung und periodischen Inspektionen. Ausgehend von einem Schadensfall, der gebrochenen ICE 3-Welle von Köln, 2008, werden ausgewählte Aspekte dieser beiden Säulen diskutiert und Vorschläge zur weiteren Verbesserung gemacht. Diese betreffen u. a. Fragen einer Betriebszeitbegrenzung, Veränderungen der Schwingfestigkeit während des Betriebs infolge von Korrosion und Steinschlag, den Einfluss von Korrosion auf Schwingrissinitiierung und -fortschritt, den potenziellen Einfluss nichtmetallischer Einschlüsse auf die Schwingfestigkeit, die Möglichkeiten, sie im Rahmen der Qualitätssicherung zu detektieren, sowie Fragen der Bruchmechanik und der Zuverlässigkeit zerstörungsfreier Schwingriss-Prüfverfahren im Rahmen eines Konzepts regelmäßiger Inspektionen.
Recently two of the authors of the present paper proposed a model for a fracture mechanics
based prediction of the S–N characteristics of metallic components with large microstructural
defects and supported this by a validation exercise on tensile plates made of an aluminium
alloy AL5380 H321. Here the authors extend the study using a number of further
data sets from the literature for which data were available at different R ratios. These data
include two aluminium alloys, Al 2024-T3 and Al 7075-T6, and a ductile cast iron, EN-GJS-
400-18-LT. Despite of necessary assumptions for the compensation of partially missing
input information the results were fairly reasonable with the exception of one data set.
The authors identify high applied stress levels in combination with potential multiple crack
initiation as the probable root of the problem and propose a scheme how the model can be
extended for taking into account crack initiation.
The yield or limit load is a key parameter with respect to the accuracy of flaw assessment based on R6 type procedures such as the R6 routine, the SINTAP and FITNET method, the standard BS 7910 and others. In a number of previous papers two of the present authors proposed the use of a reference load instead of the common limit load, which not only provided more exact fracture mechanics predictions, but showed also a wider and more general application range than the conventional parameter. Here the method has been extended to biaxial tensile loading and it has been successfully validated by a thorough comparison with finite element results and alternative solutions available in the literature.
The Fatigue Crack Propagation threshold as a design criterion - actual developments and open issues
(2014)
The paper provides a discussion on damage tolerance options applied to railway axles and factors influencing the residual lifetime as well as the required inspection interval. These comprise material properties such as the scatter of the da/dNΔK curve, the fatigue crack propagation threshold ΔKth and the toughness of the material. Parameters affecting axle loading such as the press fit, rotating bending, load history and mixed crack opening modes are discussed. Finally the influence of the initial crack geometry on residual lifetime is simulated.
The aim of this paper is a collection of stress intensity factor solutions for cracks in railway axle geometries which the authors of the present special issue developed and/or used for damage tolerance analyses. These solutions comprise closed form analytical as well as tabled geometry functions and they refer to solid as well as hollow axles and various crack sites such as the T- and V-notch and the axle body.
Railway structures such as rails and axles are safety relevant components since any failure includes the risk of catastrophic derailment. This paper gives a brief overview on the most important potential failure scenarios driven by fatigue crack initiation and propagation and discusses the effects of important influencing factors such as vehicle weight and speed, track quality and environmental conditions. The present paper summarizes earlier work of the authors in this field.
Based on a large set of 2D finite element analyses, parametric equations for weld toe stress concentration factors and through-thickness stress profiles are provided for butt-welded plates. These cover Single-Vand Double-V joints subject to tensile and bending loading. Compared to the most widespread solutions in the literature, which have also been tested against the finite element data in this work, the application range is extended particularly with respect to the weld toe radius(0.1≤ρ≤4 mm)andangle(10 °≤α≤60 °). Furthermore, two values of excess weld metal are considered (h=0.75;2.5mm). The analyses are performed for a plate thickness of 10 mm. Besides the extended validity range, the proposed equations show also an improved accuracy compared to the existing solutions.
Semi-probabilistic method for residual lifetime of aluminothermic welded rails with foot cracks
(2016)
One of the most frequent and dangerous failure modes in continuous welded rails is fatigue crack Propagation terminated by brittle fracture. Due to the brittleness of the weld material and HAZ and the scatter in its mechanical properties, a statistical approach is necessary. The paper deals with surface cracks at the foot base of aluminothermic welded rails, developing a probabilistic methodology for determining the day by day prospective failure probability. The investigations presented here comprise weld material characterization, simulation of fatigue crack propagation and finally the determination of the failure probability using the Monte Carlo method. The effect of various parameters, such as axle weight, Initial crack size, residual stresses, fatigue crack propagation threshold and date of inspection were analyzed.
The results show that, independent of the date of the last inspection, almost any failure event happens in wintertime. This is in accordance with practical experience. However, from the proposed analysis it is evident that the main parameter controlling rail fracture is not only the minimum local temperature, but the temperature range over the whole year. Finally, the results are compared to the standard rail classification method.
Starting from an introduction into important Basic questions of failure analysis and fracture mechanics, the author specifies what kind of questions in failure analysis can be effectively solved by fracture mechanics (and which can't). He illustrates his discussion with a number of case studies. Much more pronounced than in the design stage the benefit of fracture mechanics in failure analysis depends on ist accuracy. This is limited by both, intrinsic factors of the method and the availability and quality of the input information. The author discusses the various aspects and provides the participants with background information helpful for better understanding the prospects and limitations of fracture mechanics in failure analysis and the conditions of its application.
Unterschiedliche Werkstoffeigenschaften reagieren auf jeweils spezifische Weise auf Gittertyp, Gefüge und Defekte. Für die schadenstolerante Betrachtung von Werkstoff und Bauteil ist das Verständnis dieser Zusammenhange essentiell. Der Beitrag gibt mit Hinblick auf additiv gefertigte metallische Bauteile (Selective Laser Melting) einen kurzen, keineswegs vollständigen Überblick über Faktoren, die die Steifigkeit, Festigkeit, Duktilität, Zähigkeit, Ermüdungsrissausbreitung und Schwingfestigkeit beeinflussen. Es wird aufgezeigt, wie die bruchmechanische Betrachtung zur Quantifizierung der zusammenhänge beitragen kann.
A discussion is provided on the relation between non-destructive testing (NDT) and fracture mechanics. The basic tasks behind this are to guarantee the safety of a component at a potential hazard loading event, to specify inspection intervals or, alternatively, of demands on NDT for a fixed inspection regime, to plan accompanying measures for cases of temporary continued operation of structures in which cracks have been detected, and, finally, fatigue strength considerations which take into account initial defects.
The burst of a disc in rotating machinery can cause catastrophic damage of the equipment and, more importantly, it can represent a mortal threat to anyone in the sphere of influence of the event. In order to minimize the danger associated to a rotating component failure, burst testing is required by the authorities in order to set safety margins to the normal operating speeds. Moreover more accurate predicting tools are required for designing the components. This paper presents the results of a numerical and analytical study on the assessment of the crack driving force for discs containing surface flaws. The aim is to provide a simple, though reliable, tool in order to be able to calculate the possible dangerous in-service speed for a rotating component and, therefore, to set burst margins above the normal operating conditions of the equipment. An R6-like flaw assessment procedure is adopted considering different assumptions in the definition of the critical speed and the analytical predictions are compared with the results of elastic-plastic finite element analysis of disc. In particular, the validity and potentiality of the method is proved for surface flaws in different positions in the disc.
