AbstractSynchrotron radiation and microradiographic techniques were used to study the development of creep damage in notched tensile samples. The creep damage in these samples was recorded using microradiography. The density and distribution of creep damage was measured from the microradiographs using an image analysis system. The results from the image analysis can be compared to damage predictions from finite element models of the damage process to determine the quality of these models.Notched tensile samples of copper, iron and a low alloy steel were subjected to slow strain rate tensile tests at 500°C or 700°C. The tests were interrupted after various fractions of the creep lives had been expended. 1 mm thick longitudinal sections were then removed from the center of each sample for microradiography using electro-discharge machining.Creep damage in the copper alloy was concentrated in a fairly narrow band around the plane of minimum cross-section in the samples. This is in stark contrast to the results from iron and the low alloy steel. The creep damage in these materials developed at fairly sharp angles to the notch or crack plane. These results show that the damage process in iron and this steel is controlled by the equivalent stress while the formation of damage in copper is controlled by the maximum principal or hydrostatic stress.

Abstract AISI 4161 is a low-alloy steel of the chromium-molybdenum type; it contains nominally 0.61% carbon. It has relatively high hardenability and good resistance to abrasion, impact and fatigue. It is an oil-hardening grade and is recommended for moderately heavy-duty service. This steel has a relatively low tendency to develop temper embrittlement when tempered in the approximate range 850-1100 F. Among its many applications are springs, machine-tool parts, shafting, gears, bolts and heavy-duty hand tools. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: SA-397. Producer or source: Alloy steel mills and foundries.
