Emulsified Asphalt

This paper focuses on investigating the fatigue properties of cold-recycled emulsified asphalt mixtures (CEAMs) designed via two different compaction methods. First, two different CEAM compaction procedures were investigated and evaluated, including the modified Marshall compaction method (MMCM) and the vertical vibration testing method (VVTM). Indirect tensile fatigue tests were then performed to research the fatigue lives of CEAMs fabricated via the two methods. Finally, a Weibull distribution was applied to analyze the fatigue test results, and the fatigue equation was constructed. The results indicated that the average mechanical strength ratio between the CEAM samples produced by VVTM and the field core samples was >92%, whereas the average ratio of the specimens shaped by the MMCM was <65%. Compared with MMCM-molded CEAMs, VVTM-fabricated CEAMs showed decreased optimal moisture and emulsified asphalt contents by 11% and 9%, respectively, but exhibited improved moisture stability, anti-cracking performance, and anti-rutting performance by 4%, 12%, and 35%, respectively. The fatigue equations established on the basis of the Weibull distribution could effectively assess the fatigue life of CEAMs. The VVTM-manufactured CEAMs showed good resistance of stress change sensitivity and fatigue failure under different stress ratios. The VVTM-compacted CEAMs demonstrated increased fatigue life by 36% at a stress ratio of 0.45 and by 325% at a repeated load of 0.27 MPa compared with the MMCM-fabricated CEAMs.

In order to investigate the effect of plasma nitriding treatment on fatigue behavior of titanium alloys, very high cycle fatigue tests were carried out for Ti-6Al-4V alloy using an ultrasonic fatigue machine under load control conditions for stress ratios of R=-1 at frequency of ƒ=20KHz. Experiment results showed that plasma nitriding treatment played the principal role in the internal fatigue crack initiation. More importantly, plasma nitriding treatment had a detrimental effect on fatigue properties of the investigated Ti-6Al-4V alloy, and the fatigue strength of material after plasma nitriding treatment appeared to be significantly reduced about 17% over the untreated material.

Fretting fatigue tests have been conducted on 7075-T7351 aluminum alloy coupons with fretting pads of the same material. Three different stress ratios were used, the otherwise constant amplitude axial loads being interrupted every 1000 cycles by either tensile overloads to 400 MPa or compressive underloads to −200 MPa. Tensile overloads greatly prolonged fatigue life for low stresses where the overload ratios were 1.6 and above; compressive underloads had comparatively little effect. The results are discussed in terms of crack growth retardation phenomena.

Low cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of a powder metallurgy(PM) nickel base superalloy FGH720Li were systematically studied in this work, including smooth LCF and notched LCF tested at various temperatures and different stress. The relationship between the fatigue life and applied stress was analyzed both for smooth fatigue and notch fatigue tests. The effects of loading frequency and stress ratio on LCF behavior were also studied. As an important influencing factor of the fatigue life in powder metallurgy superalloy, the effect of inclusions on LCF life was also investigated. The results showed that the fatigue properties of FGH720Li alloy was excellent, when tested at the temperature of 450°C and applied stress of 1230MPa, the fatigue life could exceed 5×104 cycles. When tested at 650°C and 1150MPa, the average fatigue life was still beyond 2×105 cycles.

Shock Peening

The objective of the present study was to estimate the influence of laser shock peening on the fatigue properties of AA2024-T3 specimens with a fastener hole and to investigate the possibility to heal the initial cracks in such specimens. Fatigue cracks of different lengths were introduced in the specimens with a fastener hole before applying laser shock peening. Deep compressive residual stresses, characterized by the hole drilling method, were generated into the specimens by applying laser shock peening on both sides. Subsequently, the specimens were subjected to fatigue tests. The results show that laser shock peening has a positive effect regarding the fatigue life improvement in the specimens with a fastener hole. In addition, laser shock peening leads to a healing effect on fatigue cracks. The efficiency of this effect depends on the initial crack length. The effect of laser shock peening on the fatigue life periods was determined by using resonant frequency graphs.

High Pressure Water Jet

An experimental study of high pressure water jet peening treatment on chromium steal SCr420 H3V2L2 is conducted to study the effects of cavitation impacts of high-speed water on fatigue crack initiation and propagation of notched specimens. There are six different kinds of specimens. First three kinds are treated with; only annealing, only water quenching, and only oil quenching. Other three kinds are treated with above heat treatment and water jet peening, respectively. An axial tensile fatigue tests’ condition is 260MPa maximum stress amplitude, 0 stress ratio and 10Hz frequency, while in-situ observation by SEM is employed. Although fatigue life of the specimens with annealing and water jet peening is shorter than that of only annealing, fatigue life of water and oil quenching with water jet peening specimens is obviously longer than those without water jet peening treatment. Water jet peening has increased residual stress inside the specimens on the latter case and raised their fatigue strength. In-situ observation on the crack tips approves above analysis.

Irradiation Effect

Polymers operating in various weathering conditions must be assessed for lifetime performance. Particularly, ultraviolet (UV) radiations alters the chemical structure and therefore affect the mechanical and fatigue properties. The UV irradiation alters the polymer chemical structure, which results into a degradation of the mechanical and fatigue behavior of the polymer. The polymer properties degradation due to UV irradiation is the result of a competitive process of chain scission versus post-crosslinking. Although few studied investigated the effect of UV irradiation on the mechanical behaviour of thermoplastics, fewer examined the UV irradiation effect on the fatigue life of polymers. This study focuses on investigating the effect of UV irradiation on the fatigue properties of bulk semi-crystalline polymer; the low density Polyethylene (LDPE). Tensile specimens were exposed to different dose values of UV irradiation then subjected to fatigue loading. The fatigue tests were achieved under constant stress amplitude at a frequency of 1Hz. The results show an important decrease of the fatigue limit with increasing absorbed UV irradiation dose.

Unstable Austenite

Superelasticity is closely related to shape memory effect. It refers to the property presented by some materials submitted to large strains (usually up to about 8%) to restore their original shape immediately after unloading without the need of heating. This phenomenon results directly from a diffusionless transformation of the material from an austenitic to a martensitic phase (martensitic transformation). The recovering mechanism is the reverse transformation, from martensite to austenite. This paper compares fatigue live curves obtained in bending-rotation fatigue tests carried out on wires of NiTi alloys with three different microstructures, stable austenite, unstable austenite (superelastic), and stable martensite. These curves are also compared to data from the literature. The tests were strain controlled and the wires were submitted to strain amplitudes from 0.6% to 12.0%. To minimize changes in material properties, the wire temperature was monitored using a thermocouple and controlled by its rotation speed. For strain amplitudes up to 4%, the εa-Nf curve for superelastic wires was consistent with those reported in the literature, closely approaching the curve of the stable austenite wire. For higher strain amplitudes, fatigue life of superelastic wires increased with strain until it approached the fatigue life curve of stable martensitic wire. This unusual behavior results in a “Z-shaped” curve for high strain values. It is possibly linked to the changes in microstructure and fatigue properties that occur when the superelastic material is deformed.

The research of fatigue properties of the butt welded joint, though a large number of fatigue tests are need to be carried out, has significant influence to hoisting equipment’s design, development and using safety. This paper conducted a study on simulating the fatigue properties of widely used steel Q345 butt welded joint’s by finite element method based on the improved linear equivalent structural stress theory. The originally massive amount of fatigue tests and data processing could be saved. In order to ensure the accuracy of the fatigue modeling, a batch of Q345 butt welded joints were prepared for the fatigue tests which is used to contrast with the modeling result. The stress distribution under different load situation and the fatigue life of the joints, which have profound reference significance to hoisting machinery industry, can be acquired through modeling.
