The aim of this research was to examine the mechanical and fatigue properties of friction stir welded Sc-modified 5 mm thick AA2519-T62 extrusion. The joint was obtained using the following parameters: 800 rpm tool rotation speed, 100 mm/min tool traverse speed, 17 kN axial, and MX Triflute as a tool. The investigation has involved microstructure observations, microhardness distribution analysis, tensile test with digital image correlation technique, observations of the fracture surface, measurements of residual stresses, low cycle fatigue testing, and fractography. It was stated that the obtained weld is defect-free and has joint efficiency of 83%. The failure in the tensile test occurred at the boundary of the thermo-mechanically affected zone and stir zone on the advancing side of the weld. The residual stress measurements have revealed that the highest values of longitudinal stress are localized at the distance of 10 mm from the joint line with their values of 124 MPa (the retreating side) and 159 MPa (the advancing side). The results of low cycle fatigue testing have allowed establishing of the values of the cyclic strength coefficient (k′ = 504.37 MPa) and cyclic strain hardening exponent (n′ = 0.0068) as well as the factors of the Manson–Coffin–Basquin equation: the fatigue strength coefficient σ′f = 462.4 MPa, the fatigue strength exponent b = −0.066, the fatigue ductility coefficient ε′f = 0.4212, and the fatigue ductility exponent c = −0.911.

Tool Rotation

In this investigation, a 5 mm thick extrusion of AA2519-T62 alloy has been welded using friction stir welding method. The various sets of process parameters have been involved within the range of 400–1200 rpm tool rotation speed and 100–800 mm/min welding speed. Selected joints have been subjected to the macrostructure analysis, microhardness measurements, tensile and low cycle fatigue testing (at ε = 0.3%), and fractography analysis. It has been stated that imperfection-free macrostructure is obtained for welds produced with lowest welding speed: 100 mm/min and tool rotation speed within the range of 400–800 rpm. The highest joint efficiency (85%) has been obtained for the sample characterized by the presence of voids in the upper part of the stir zone. Considering macrostructure analysis and established mechanical properties of the joints, it may be concluded that the best set of welding parameters for AA2519-T62 is within the range of 600–800 rpm tool rotation speed with welding speed of 100 mm/min for used MX Triflute tool.

Failure Data

Standards for the fatigue testing of wearable sensing technologies are lacking. The majority of published fatigue tests for wearable sensors are performed on proof-of-concept stretch sensors fabricated from a variety of materials. Due to their flexibility and stretchability, polymers are often used in the fabrication of wearable sensors. Other materials, including textiles, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and conductive metals or inks, may be used in conjunction with polymers to fabricate wearable sensors. Depending on the combination of the materials used, the fatigue behaviors of wearable sensors can vary. Additionally, fatigue testing methodologies for the sensors also vary, with most tests focusing only on the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) regime, and few sensors are cycled until failure or runout are achieved. Fatigue life predictions of wearable sensors are also lacking. These issues make direct comparisons of wearable sensors difficult. To facilitate direct comparisons of wearable sensors and to move proof-of-concept sensors from “bench to bedside,” fatigue testing standards should be established. Further, both high-cycle fatigue (HCF) and failure data are needed to determine the appropriateness in the use, modification, development, and validation of fatigue life prediction models and to further the understanding of how cracks initiate and propagate in wearable sensing technologies.

Failure Life

This paper studies multiaxial low cycle fatigue crack mode and failure life of Ti-6Al-4V. Stress controlled fatigue tests were carried out using a hollow cylinder specimen under multiaxial loadings of ?=0, 0.4, 0.5 and 1 of which stress ratio R=0 at room temperature. ? is a principal stress ratio and is defined as ?=sigmaII/sigmaI, where sigmaI and sigmaII are principal stresses of which absolute values take the largest and middle ones, respectively. Here, the test at ?=0 is a uniaxial loading test and that at ?=1 an equi-biaxial loading test. A testing machine employed is a newly developed multiaxial fatigue testing machine which can apply push-pull and reversed torsion loadings with inner pressure onto the hollow cylinder specimen. Based on the obtained results, this study discusses evaluation of the biaxial low cycle fatigue life and crack mode. Failure life is reduced with increasing ? induced by cyclic ratcheting. The crack mode is affected by the surface condition of cut-machining and the failure life depends on the crack mode in the multiaxial loading largely.

Fatigue Life Analysis

The article presents the results of research on low cycle fatigue strength of laser welded joints vs. non-welded material of high-strength steel DOMEX 700 MC. The tests were performed under load controlled using the total strain amplitude ɛac. The operating principle of the special electro-mechanic fatigue testing equipment with a suitable clamping system was working on 35 Hz frequency. Fatigue life analysis was conducted based on the Manson-Coffin-Basquin equation, which made it possible to determine fatigue parameters. Studies have shown differences in the fatigue life of original specimens and laser welded joints analysed, where laser welded joints showed lower fatigue resistance. In this article a numerical analysis of stresses generated in bending fatigue specimens has been performed employing the commercially available FEM-program ADINA.
