Fatigue life extension

Potential fatigue rejuvenation processes were carried out on fatigue-damaged material both with and without observable surface-connected fatigue cracks. The fatigue life of fatigue-damaged MAR-M246(Hf)(DS), a directionally solidified nickel-base superalloy used in turbine airfoils, was extended by reheat treatment. The fatigue life of fatigue-cracked Inconel 718, a wrought nickel-base superalloy used in a wide variety of advanced rocket engine components, was extended by electron-beam welding to close off the surface-connected crack, followed by hot isostatic pressing and reheat treatment.

Creep of oxide dispersion strengthened materials /with special reference to T-D nichrome/

Analyses of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys shows that their characteristics are mainly due to the creep behavior of the matrix material. Diffusion-controlled slip creep is established as the rate-controlling process in the alloys investigated, with the glide and climb of edge dislocations associated with the subgrain structure as barriers being the specific rate-controlling step. It is found that the stable subgrain size in ODS alloys is usually associated with the spacing between particles 500-1000 A in size, and that their creep behavior is distinguished from that of the matrix material by the existence of a threshold stress that is not well defined microscopically but appears to be related to particles of less than 500 A size.

Creep of oxide dispersion strengthened materials (with special reference to TD nichrome)

It was shown that the creep behavior of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys is controlled principally by the creep properties of the matrix of the alloy devoid of particles. Thus, diffusion controlled slip process determine the rate controlling step in such materials. The role of the particles is to stabilize a fine substructure which is invariant with the creep stress over a wide range of stress. This characteristic leads to negligible strain hardening during creep and suggests that creep relations developed for pure metals and many solid solution alloys at constant structure should be used to describe the creep of ODS alloys. A second characteristics of the ODS alloys is that a stress may exist below which creep will not occur (threshold stress).
