Generalised notch stress method to evaluate the fatigue behaviour of rough and smooth wire arc additively manufactured components
Source abstract
Abstract
The fatigue life of components under cyclic loading is highly sensitive to surface conditions, as imperfections lead to stress concentrations and early fatigue crack initiation. This study investigates the fatigue performance of both rough and smooth specimens made from S355 low-alloy carbon steel using a cold metal transfer (CMT)-based wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) process. Three types of specimens (machined, sinuous and raster specimens) with different surface geometries are fabricated. Rough fatigue coupons are cut using waterjet cutting from the as-deposited walls while keeping the rough surface unmachined. The geometric properties of rough fatigue coupons are quantified by a 3D laser scanner, followed by static tensile tests, hardness measurements and fatigue tests. Fatigue crack initiation and propagation for different surface types are analysed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Several computational methods, including the numerical local fatigue stress evaluation, the hot spot stress method and the effective notch stress method, are analysed for their effectiveness in assessing the fatigue resistance of rough specimens. A generalised notch stress method based on notch stress theory is proposed and validated. Our results prove that the fatigue performance of specimens with different surface conditions can be unified using the proposed generalised notch stress method.
