Propensities of crack interior initiation and early growth for very-high-cycle fatigue of high strength steels
Source abstract
Abstract
Fatigue tests of a high carbon chromium steel were performed using rotating bending and ultrasonic axial cycling. Fatigue crack initiated at specimen interior for very-high-cycle fatigue (VHCF) with fish-eye pattern embracing fine-granular-area (FGA) originated from inclusion. The fatigue life from FGA to fish-eye and from fish-eye to the critical crack size was respectively calculated, so as to estimate the fatigue life contributed by FGA. The crack extension rate within FGA was also estimated. Our results demonstrated that the formation of FGA is responsible for a majority part of total fatigue life.
