  2. 11. Very high cycle fatigue of automotive steels : Testing and computation at 20 kHz

    Author : Mohamed Sadek; Jens Bergström; Nils Hallbäck; Ulrich Krupp; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Very high cycle fatigue; ultrasonic fatigue testing; automotive steels; fatigue strength; stress intensity computation; crack growth; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : Mechanical fatigue failure occurs in components subjected to cyclic loading. A crack initiates at critical regions in the component and propagates during repeated loading. The expected fatigue life depends on the level, type and frequency of the loading. READ MORE

  4. 12. 3D-printing for Aerospace : Fatigue Behaviour of Additively Manufactured Titanium

    Author : Magnus Kahlin; Johan Moverare; Hans Ansell; Gianni Nicoletto; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; additive manufacturing; fatigue; post processing; crack growth; Ti6Al4V; aerospace; additiv tillverkning; 3D-printing; flyg; utmattning; titan;

    Abstract : Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) and electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF) are two of the most common additive manufacturing (AM) methods which both provide the engineer with a great freedom of design.This means that parts with light weight, multifunctional applications and improved performance could be achieved through innovative design solutions which have attracted a lot of interest from the aerospace industry.

  5. 13. Initiation and early crack growth in VHCF of stainless steels : Experimental and theoretical analysis

    Author : Muhammad Waqas Tofique; Jens Bergstöm; Nils Hallbäck; Thierry Pallin-Luc; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Very High Cycle Fatigue; Stainless steel; Ultrasonic fatigue testing; Crack initiation; Crystallographic crack growth; Distributed Dislocation Dipole Technique; Closed cracks; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : Mechanical fatigue is a failure phenomenon that occurs due to repeated application of mechanical loads. Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) is considered as the domain of fatigue life greater than 10 million load cycles. READ MORE

  6. 14. Fatigue crack growth experiments and analyses - from small scale to large scale yielding at constant and variable amplitude loading

    Author : Pär Ljustell; Fred L. Nilsson; Bo Alfredsson; Gunnar Härkegård; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fracture mechanics; fatigue crack growth; finite elements analysis; small scale yielding SSY ; large scale yielding LSY ; low cycle fatigue LCF ; crack tip opening displacement CTOD ; crack closure; potential drop method; constant amplitude load; variable amplitude load; inconel 718; stainless steel 316L;

    Abstract : This thesis is on fatigue crack growth experiments and assessments of fatigue crack growth rates. Both constant and variable amplitude loads in two different materials are considered; a nickel based super-alloy Inconel 718 and a stainless steel 316L. READ MORE

  7. 15. Very high cycle fatigue of tool steels

    Author : Vitaliy Kazymyrovych; Jens Bergström; Arne Melander; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fatigue; crack growth; ultrasonic testing; tool steels; inclusions; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : An increasing number of engineering components are expected to have fatigue life in the range of 107 - 1010 load cycles. Some examples of such components are found in airplanes, automobiles and high speed trains. READ MORE
