Damage Rule

A series of tests for low cycle fatigue were conducted on the tubular specimens for 304 stainless steel under variable amplitude and irregular axial-torsional loading. Rainflow cycle counting and linear damage rule are used to calculate fatigue damage and four approaches, e.g. SWT(Smith-Watson-Topper), KBM(Kandil-Brown-Miller), FS(Fatemi-Socie), and LKN(Lee-Kim-Nam) approach are employed to predict the fatigue life. The maximum shear strain plane, the maximum normal strain plane, and the maximum damage plane are considered as the critical plane, respectively. The effects of the choice of the critical plane on previous approaches are discussed. It is shown that comparing with the maximum shear/normal strain approach, the predictions are improved by using the maximum damage plane approach, part nonproportional paths for SWT, AV and part nonproportional paths for KBM, TV paths for FS. But for LKN, the prediction results are nonconservative for some paths than that of the maximum shear/normal strain approach.

Strength Distributions

Abstract The strength distribution of reaction bonded silicon carbide tubes that failed by internal pressurization was predicted from strength distributions obtained from simple laboratory test specimens at room temperature. The strength distributions of flexure bars, C-rings tested in tension, C-rings tested in compression, diametrally compressed O-rings, and internally pressurized short tubes were compared to the strength distribution of internally pressurized long tubes. The methodology involved application of Weibull statistical theory using elasticity theory to define the stress distributions in the simple specimens. The flexural specimens did not yield acceptable results, since they were ground prior to testing, thereby altering their flaw population in comparison with the processing induced flaw populations of the tubular specimens. However, the short tube internal pressure test, the c-ring tested in tension and the diametrally compressed o-ring test configurations yielded accurate predictions, since these specimens more accurately represent the strength limiting flaw population in the long tubes.

Abstract A loading function is a relation between combined stresses for which the beginning of plastic flow takes place. The loading function for a given material is different depending upon the initial plastic strains produced. That is, the initial stress or strain history influences the subsequent loading function. This paper gives the results of an experimental investigation to determine the validity of certain loading functions proposed for anisotropic materials. The study reported was conducted for an aluminum alloy 24S-T and the state of stress covered was biaxial tension. These stresses were produced in the usual way by subjecting thin-walled tubular specimens to axial tension and internal pressure. The test results showed that none of the existing loading functions is adequate for interpreting the plastic stress-strain relations obtained. Tests also were made to determine the change in the loading function with increase in plastic flow. It was found that the loading function did not remain symmetrical with respect to the original function, nor was the new loading function the same as the original except for a shift of origin. However, the test results support in a qualitative way the concept of the so-called “yield corner.”

Tubular Specimens

A simplified treatment is presented for the analysis of tubular specimens subject to in-phase tension-torsion loads in the elasto-plastic regime. Use is made of a hardening function readily obtainable from the uniaxial cyclic stress-strain curve and hysteresis loops. Expressions are given for incremental as well as deformation theories of plasticity. The reversals of loading are modelled by referring the flow equations to the point of reversal and calculating distances from the point of reversal using a yield critertion. The method has been used to predict the deformation response of in-phase tests on an En15R steel, and comparisons with experimental data are provided. The material exhibited a non-Masing type behaviour. A power law rule is developed for predicting multiaxial cyclic response from uniaxial data by incorporating a hysteretic strain hardening exponent.

Shear stress-shear strain curves for o.f.h.c. copper at room temperature have been obtained at constant shear strain rates in the range 1 to 103s-1, using thin walled tubular specimens in a flywheel type torsion testing machine. Results show that, for a given value of strain, the stress decreases when the rate of strain is increased. Moreover, the elastic portion of the stress-strain curve tends to disappear as the rate of strain is increased. It is postulated that these effects are due to the formation of adiabatic shear bands in the material when the given rate of strain is impressed rapidly enough. A special feature of the design of the testing machine used is the rapid application of the chosen strain rate.

The paper describes some experimental work designed to investigate the bursting of pipe and pressure vessels by gaseous detonation. The test specimens were 3.25-in-OD tubes, 12 in. long, and of 0.040 to 0.070-in. wall thickness. The specimens, cut from hot-rolled carbon-steel pipe, and also from drawn carbon-steel tubing, were tested at several temperatures, which were chosen to produce failures both above and below the brittle transition temperatures for the two materials. In addition, an austenitic stainless-steel specimen was tested under very severe conditions in several unsuccessful attempts to fragment it.
