In Germany the damages on concrete motorways have increased during the past 15 years. This led often to a reduction of service life from 30 to 10 years. In spite of comprehensive research the reasons for these damages have not been clarified yet. But it is known that in this context the ASR plays a decisive role. Against this background ASR performance tests have been developed. However, these tests do not take into account the effects of mechanical loading due to cyclic traffic and climatic impact. Therefore in Germany the ASR research group 1498 was founded. The research group consists of three experimentally- and two multi-scale modelling oriented subprojects, which are working closely together. Selected findings of BAM’s experimental subproject SP4 are content of this contribution. The aim was to investigate the impact of a cyclic mechanical pre-damage on moisture transport. The pre-damaging was carried out on large-format beams using a cyclic four point bending test with a total number of 5 million load cycles. Thereby the damage process was monitored by using different NDT-techniques. After the mechanical pre-damaging, smallsized specimens were taken from loaded as well as unloaded areas of the large format beams. Absorption tests were carried out on these specimens using water and NaCl solution. Thereby moisture distribution was measured with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR). Additionally, moisture suction was quantified integrally by means of gravimetric measurements. The analysis of the first test data shows that the mechanical loading influences the moisture transport.
A Multi-scale temporal integration scheme for viscoplatic solids subjected to fatigue deterioration
(2016)
Using a continuum mechanics framework for lifetime prediction requires numerical integration of evolving damage until the onset of failure. The primary challenge for the simulation of structural fatigue failure is caused by the enormous computational costs due to cycle by cycle temporal integration throughout the whole loading history, which is in the order of 10^3 - 10^7 cycles. As a consequence, most approaches circumvent this problem and use an empirical method such as Wöhler curves. They are well suited for approximation of the lifetime, but they are not capable to capture a realistic degradation of the material with a redistribution of the stresses. The main objective of the paper is to provide a technique for the long time response of a finite element (FE) model while reducing computational costs.
A multi-scale temporal integration scheme is proposed, which adapts the conventional FE method for realistic modeling of deterioration in a structure subjected to cyclic loading. For a particular case of two-scale temporal homogenization, the displacement field is assumed to satisfy scale separation: a short time scale arises from the oscillatory loading and a long time scale is due to the slow response relating to yielding and damage evolution. The original boundary value Problem (BVP) is approximated by the time-Independent BVPs on the short time scale. Alternation of the displacement field on the long time scale is correlated with the damage evolution by means of the adaptive cycle jump method. The significant acceleration of FE simulations is demonstrated for a constitutive damage model where the progressive damage accumulation under fatigue loading is driven by viscoplastic deformation.
In this study, quasi-static material tests on unidirectional and multi-angle glass fiber reinforced epoxy laminates at ambient temperatures from -213 K to 353 K (-60 °C to +80 °C) are performed. In addition, neat resin is investigated under tension and compression loads at different temperatures. The coefficient of thermal expansion is determined for neat resin and unidirectional reinforced specimens. The dependence of the resin’s thermomechanical properties on the ambient temperature is shown. The point of damage onset at which first cracks appear within the matrix under quasi-static loading is investigated by means of optical grey scale analysis. The correlation between damage onset and effective matrix stress at different ambient temperatures is identified. An approach for the calculation of thermomechanical loads and the prediction of the damage onset by means of inverse calculations is presented. The impact of the strain blocking effect of the matrix is considered as well as residual thermal stresses due to curing and resin shrinkage.

This paper focuses on the aspect on how damage evolution processes in composite materials and structures including matrix fracture, delamination, fibre-matrix debonding, and fibre fracture can be detected by taking advantage of the material’s inherit mechanical properties. These properties can be described on the basis of non-linear mechanical phenomena measurable as an inert frequency response signal. The approach is proposed as a means for residual life structural assessment specifically in the context of VHCF.
Potential of martensitic stainless steel X5CrNiCuNb 16-4 as pipe steel in corrosive CCS environment
(2017)
Pipe steels suitable for carbon capture and storage technology (CCS) require resistance against the corrosive environment of a potential CCS-site (heat, pressure, salinity of the aquifer, CO2-partial pressure). X5CrNiCuNb16-4 has been proven to be sufficient resistant in corrosive environments, but shows rather unusual corrosion behaviour in CCS environment. Therefore differently heat treated coupons of 1.4542 were kept at T=60 °C and ambient pressure as well as p=100 bar for 700 h - 8000 h in an a) water saturated supercritical CO2 and b) CO2-saturated synthetic aquifer environment similar to on-shore CCS-sites in the Northern German Basin. Additionally fatigue tests were performed via push-pull tests with a series of 30 specimens was tested at stress amplitudes between 150 MPa and 500 MPa (sinusoidal dynamic test loads, R=-1; resonant frequency ~ 30 Hz). Best corrosion resistance in the liquid phase is achieved via normalizing prior to exposure and hardening+tempering at 670 °C leads to lowest corrosion rates in the supercritical phase. With no regard to atmosphere discontinuously ellipsoidal surface corrosion regions appear after exposure of 4000 h and more. The endurance limit of X5CrNiCuNb16-4 measured in air is reduced by more than 50% when exposed to CCS environment (maximum number of cycles (10 x 106) at a stress amplitude of 150 MPa) The scatter range TN = 1:34 is disproportionately large contributing to an overall unusual corrosion behaviour.
The fatigue behaviour of cast iron is usually investigated on machined specimens. Components of cast iron, however, have a casting skin; therefore the investigation of the influence of the casting skin on the lifetime is of interest. To study this influence isothermal fatigue tests were carried out on heat-resisting spheroidal graphite cast iron EN GJS SiMo 4.05 in 4–point-bending set-up at 400 °C. Specimens with and without casting skin were investigated comparatively. The number of cycles to failure was significantly lower for specimens with casting skin. Metallographic investigations underline the reduction of lifetime caused by casting skin.
Using continuum damage mechanics (CDM) for lifetime prediction requires numerical integration of evolving damage until the onset of failure. The primary challenge for the simulation of structural fatigue failure is caused by the enormous computational costs due to cycle-by-cycle temporal integration throughout the whole loading history, which is in the order of 103–107 cycles. As a consequence, most approaches circumvent this problem and use empirical methods such as Wöhler curves. They are well suited for approximating the lifetime, but they are not capable to capture a realistic degradation of the material including redistribution of stresses. The main objective of the paper is to provide a technique for finite element (FE) simulations of structures under fatigue loading while reducing computational costs.
A Fourier transformation-based temporal integration (FTTI) scheme is proposed, which adapts the conventional FE method for modeling the viscoplastic deterioration in a structure subjected to cyclic loading. The response fields are represented by a Fourier series which assumes a temporal scale separation: a microchronological (short time) scale arises from the oscillatory loading and a macrochronological (long time) scale is due to the slow material relaxation resulting from yielding and damage evolution. The original dynamic boundary value problem (BVP) is approximated by the stationary BVP on the microchronological scale. Alternation of the displacement field on the macrochronological scale is correlated with evolution of the history variables by means of a high order adaptive cycle jump method. Performance and significant acceleration of the FE simulations is demonstrated at different loading scenarios for a constitutive damage model where the progressive damage accumulation is driven by viscoplastic yielding.
Cyclic fatigue behavior of glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin at ambient and elevated temperatures
(2018)
The fatigue behavior of ±45° glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin under cyclic mechanical and constant thermal loading is investigated in this study. Tests at three different temperature levels in the range 296 K to 343 K have been performed in order to create S-N curves for each temperature level. The specimen damage is measured in-situ using optical grayscale analysis. The characteristic damage state (CDS) is evaluated for each specimen. It is shown that the point of CDS is suitable as a failure criterion to compare the resulting S-N curves. With micromechanical formulations, the temperature-dependent matrix effort is calculated for each stress-temperature level. In terms of matrix effort, the longest fatigue life is reached at high temperatures, while, in terms of stress, the lowest fatigue life is reached at the highest temperatures.
