Speech Title:
Very
High Cycle Fatigue in Additively Manufactured Alloys
Abstract:
As a new
industrial revolutionary manufacturing technology, additive
manufacturing (AM) plays a crucial role in the aerospace field. AM
technology is increasingly used in key equipment innovations, such as
advanced aeroengines (GE9X, GE) and aerospace engines (Raptor 3,
SpaceX). It is expected that with the maturity of AM technology, it will
be widely used in the future because of its significant advantages in
near-net forming etc. Due to inevitable AM defects, the need for
ultra-long-life durability of critical components in harsh service
environment is increasingly evident. Focusing on challenges of very high
cycle fatigue (VHCF) mechanics of AM aerospace alloys, this talk covers:
Ultrasonic fatigue testing with the loading frequency of about 20 kHz
was employed to research the VHCF
durability of typically AM structural metals for the aerospace, such as
the nickel-based superalloy (IN718 and IN939), titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V)
under elevated temperatures and various stress ratios, and aluminum
alloy (AlSi7Mg), which were fabricated by the laser powder bed fusion
(LPBF, one of AM technique). As a result, compared with those
conventional alloys, the AM alloys show lower fatigue strength. AM
defects (such as gas pore and lack of fusion), matrix (columnar grains),
and inclusions can act as initially fatal fatigue microcracks, and the
fatigue sensitivity level depends on the location, size, and type of
these defects. Defect-based modified fatigue life prediction formulas
were developed, which accurately predict fatigue life within a broad
life range. The fine granular area (FGA) region (one of the key
characteristic regions for VHCF) induced by grain refinement is composed
of many nanograins, which result from dislocation movement within
martensite laths. Dislocation pile-up and rearrangement in martensitic
laths form dislocation cells, which further develop into low-angle grain
boundaries and nanograins.
