Influence of Loading Rate on Fatigue Crack Propagation Property of Recycled PA 66 Material at High-Temperature above Tg.

High Temperature Fatigue Crack Propagation in INCONEL718

A room-temperature autonomically-healing PMMA bone cement: influence of composition on fatigue crack propagation rate.

PURPOSE To test two hypotheses. First, autonomic healing is achievable in a commercially available poly (methyl methacrylate) bone cement brand that is widely used to anchor total joint replacements. Secondly, in this self-healing cement, the fatigue crack propagation (FCP) rate is critically dependent on the relative amount of the mass of the healing agent (endo-isomer of dicyclopentadiene (DC...

High temperature fatigue crack propagation behaviour of Inconel 718

The overall objective of this work has been to develop and evaluate tools for designing against fatigue in gas turbine applications, with special focus on the nickelbased superalloy Inconel 718. The fatigue crack propagation behaviour under high temperature hold times has been studied. Firstly, the main fatigue crack propagation phenomena have been investigated with the aim of setting up a basi...

Effects of Microstructure on Room Temperature Fatigue Crack Initiation and Short Crack Propagation in Udimet

An assessment of the effects of microstructure on room temperature fatigue crack initiation and short crack propagation in a Ni-base superalloy is presented. The assessment was carried out on microstructural variants of U720Li, including as-received U720Li, U720Li-LG (large grain variant) and U720Li-LP (large intragranular coherent γ′ variant). Fatigue tests were carried out at room temperature...

Predicting Depth and Path of Subsurface Crack Propagation at Gear Tooth Flank under Cyclic Contact Loading

In this paper, a two-dimensional computational model is proposed for predicting the initiation position and propagation path of subsurface crack of spur gear tooth flank. In order to simulate the contact of teeth, an equivalent model of two contacting cylinders is used. The problem is assumed to be under linear elastic fracture mechanic conditions and finite element method is used for numerical...
