Weibull Stress

Recently the Weibull stress is used as a fracture driving force parameter in fracture assessment. The Weibull stress is derived from a statistical analysis of local instability of micro cracks leading to brittle fracture initiation. The critical Weibull stress is expected to be a critical parameter independent of the geometrical condition of specimens. Fracture toughness test using 3-point bending and tensile tests of welded joint specimens with geometrical discontinuity were conducted in order to study the applicability of fracture assessment procedure based on Weibull stress criterion. Steel plates prepared for this study had tensile strength of 490 MPa for structural use. Two kinds of welded joint specimens, “one-bead welded joint” and “multi-pass welded joint” were prepared for fracture toughness test by using gas metal are welding. In tensile test specimen, corner flaws were introduced at the geometrical discontinuity part at where stress concentration is existed. Three dimensional elastoplastic finite element analyses were also carried out using the welded joint specimen models in order to calculate the Weibull stress. The critical loads for brittle fracture predicted by the Weibull stress criterion from CTOD test results of one-bead and multi-pass welded joint specimens show fairly good agreement with experimental results of welded joint specimens with geometrical discontinuity.

Fracture Toughness Specimen

This paper presents a new fracture assessment method, IST method developed as ISO 27306. The IST method implements an equivalent CTOD ratio,β, for the CTOD toughness correction for constraint loss in structural components. Usingβ, the standard fracture toughness specimen and structural components are linked at the same level of the Weibull stress. This paper extends the equivalent CTOD concept to weld components. Effects of the weld strength mismatch and residual stress onβare discussed. It is shown on the failure assessment diagram (FAD) that the CTOD toughness correction withβleads to accurate fracture assessments of weld panels, whereas the conventional procedure gives much conservative results.

The Impact

The article describes tests of epoxy mortars after the addition of fibres. The fibres were a substitute for sand in the amount of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% by volume, respectively. Three types of mortar were obtained, containing polypropylene, glass and carbon fibres, respectively. Statistical analyses (ANOVA) were carried out to assess the impact of fibre content on the mechanical properties of mortars. Brittle fracture toughness was also tested using the Cracked Straight Through Brazilian Disc method. The addition of each type of fibre improved the assessed parameters. Based on the obtained research results, and also due to availability and price, the most advantageous seems to be the production of composites containing the addition of polypropylene fibres.

Reaction Products

Cermets are designed to optimize the mechanical properties of ceramics (hard and strong component) and metals (ductile and tough component) into one system. However, the processing of such systems is a problem in obtaining fully dense composite without deleterious reaction products. In the lightweight (2.65 g/cc) B4C-Al cermet, many of the processing problems have been circumvented. It is now possible to process fully dense B4C-Al cermet with tailored microstructures and achieve unique combination of mechanical properties (fracture strength of over 600 MPa and fracture toughness of 12 MPa-m1/2). In this paper, microstructure and fractography of B4C-Al cermets, tested under dynamic and static loading conditions, are described.The cermet is prepared by infiltration of Al at 1150°C into partially sintered B4C compact under vacuum to full density. Fracture surface replicas were prepared by using cellulose acetate and thin-film carbon deposition. Samples were observed with a Philips 3000 at 100 kV.

Fiber Matrix

The mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced composites are directly related to the nature of the fiber-matrix bond. Fracture toughness is improved when debonding, crack deflection, and fiber pull-out occur which in turn depend on a weak interfacial bond. The interfacial characteristics of fiber-reinforced ceramics can be altered by applying thin coatings to the fibers prior to composite fabrication. In a previous study, Lowden and co-workers coated Nicalon fibers (Nippon Carbon Company) with silicon and carbon prior to chemical vapor infiltration with SiC and determined the influence of interfacial frictional stress on fracture phenomena. They found that the silicon-coated Nicalon fiber-reinforced SiC had low flexure strengths and brittle fracture whereas the composites containing carbon coated fibers exhibited improved strength and fracture toughness. In this study, coatings of boron or BN were applied to Nicalon fibers via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the fibers were subsequently incorporated in a SiC matrix. The fiber-matrix interfaces were characterized using transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM). Mechanical properties were determined and compared to those obtained for uncoated Nicalon fiber-reinforced SiC.
