3D Model of Crack Propagation in Particulate Ceramic Composite Containing Residual Stresses
Štegnerová, Kateřina; Majer, Zdeněk; Hutař, Pavel; Náhlík, Luboš
2017 - English
A crack propagation and fracture behaviour of particulate ceramic composite were investigated. Influence of 3D shape of particles on the crack propagation was studied together with influence of the presence of residual stresses, which are developed inside the composite during manufacturing process. Finite element (FE) method was used for numerical simulation of propagating crack in the composite. Basic numerical models of low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) with alumina particles homogenously dispersed in the glass matrix were developed. Volume fraction of alumina phase was 20vol.%, which is typical amount for LTCC. The results show that existence of residual stresses retards the crack propagating under conditions of sub-critical crack growth (SCG). Presented results contribute to a better understanding of the role of residual stresses in particulate ceramic composites.

Short-term stable crack propagation through polyolefin singleand bilayered structures - Influence of welding, composition and direction of crack propagation
Lach, R.; Krolopp, T.; Hutař, Pavel; Nezbedová, E.; Grellmann, W.
2017 - English
The overall stable crack initiation and propagation behaviour of specimens cut from plastic pipes that were composed of different polyolefin materials were investigated using concepts of elastic–plastic fracture mechanics including the crack propagation kinetics. The effect of specimen shape, orientation, welding, lading rate, composition/microstructure and direction of crack propagation on the crack resistance (R) behaviour of these materials has been thereby assessed.

Estimation of Anisotropy of Creep Properties in Al and Mg Alloys by Means of Small Punch Test
Dobeš, Ferdinand; Dymáček, Petr
2017 - English
Small punch test was used to determine the properties of light alloys and composites in various directions. Three different materials were studied:\n(i) magnesium alloy WE54 prepared by a powder metallurgical route with final hot extrusion,\n(ii) aluminium alloy reinforced with 20 vol. % of Saffil fibres with planar orientation, and\n(iii) Al-Al4C3 composite prepared by mechanical alloying and subjected to equal channel angularpressing as a final step.\nSmall punch tests were performed under constant force at elevated temperatures. The observed orientation dependence of creep properties is strongly material dependent. The results confirm the feasibility of the small punch test for determination of anisotropy of mechanical properties.

High cycle fatigue life of Ti6Al4V alloy produced by direct metal laser sintering
Konečná, R.; Nicoletto, G.; Bača, A.; Kunz, Ludvík
2017 - English
High cycle fatigue life of Ti6Al4V alloy specimens manufactured by Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) was experimentally determined. The DMLS fabrication process was characterized by a 400 W laser power and 50 micrometer layer melted thickness. Post-fabrication heat treatment consisted in stress relieving for 3 h at 720 °C in vacuum with subsequent cooling in argon atmosphere. Fatigue testing of specimens oriented in three different directions with respect to the material build direction was performed with the aim to examine the influence of the layered microstructure on the fatigue behavior. Results of measurement of surface roughness, metallographic examinations of the layered material and fractographic investigation of the fatigue fracture surfaces were employed in the discussion of fatigue crack initiation in DMLS fabricated Ti6Al4V alloy.

Assessment of Crack Stability in a Quasi-brittle Particle Composite
Malíková, Lucie; Klusák, Jan; Keršner, Z.
2017 - English
Fracture behaviour of a crack in a particle (silicate based) composite is studied. The crack propagation depends not only on mutual elastic mismatch of matrix and aggregate but also the influence of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between the matrix and the aggregate is discussed. Various combinations of materials and geometry of matrix, aggregate and ITZ can improve or degrade fracture properties of the composite. Extensive numerical simulations on a basic 3-point-bending cracked specimen via the finite element method are performed in order to analyze the stress field near the crack tip. Linear elastic fracture mechanics approach is utilized in order to assess the crack stability and summarize several conclusions.

Quantum-mechanical study of tensorial elastic and high-temperature thermodynamic properties of grain boundary states in superalloy-phase Ni3Al
Friák, Martin; Všianská, Monika; Holec, D.; Šob, Mojmír
2017 - English
Grain boundaries (GBs), the most important defects in solids and their properties are crucial for many materials properties including (in-)stability. Quantum-mechanical methods can reliably compute properties of GBs and we use them to analyze (tensorial) anisotropic elastic properties of interface states associated with GBs in one of the most important intermetallic compounds for industrial applications, Ni3Al. Selecting the Sigma 5(210) GBs as a case study because of its significant extra volume, we address the mechanical stability of the GB interface states by checking elasticity-based Born stability criteria. One critically important elastic constant, C 55, is found nearly three times smaller at the GB compared with the bulk, contributing thus to the reduction of the mechanical stability of Ni3Al polycrystals. Next, comparing properties of Sigma 5(210) GB state which is fully relaxed with those of a Sigma 5(210) GB state when the supercell dimensions are kept equal to those in the bulk we conclude that lateral relaxations have only marginal impact on the studied properties. Having the complete elastic tensor of Sigma 5(210) GB states we combine Green's-function based homogenization techniques and an approximative approach to the Debye model to compare thermodynamic properties of a perfect Ni3Al bulk and the Sigma 5(210) GB states. In particular, significant reduction of the melting temperature (to 79-81% of the bulk value) is predicted for nanometer-size grains.

Comparison of calibration functions for short edge cracks under selected loads
Seitl, Stanislav; Miarka, Petr; Malíková, Lucie; Krejsa, M.
2017 - English
Attention to the fatigue cracks in steel structures and bridges has been paid for long time. In spite to efforts to eliminate the creation and propagation of fatigue cracks throughout the designed service life, cracks are still revealed during inspections. Note, that depending on location of initial crack, the crack may propagate from the edge or from the surface. The theoretical model of fatigue crack progression is based on linear fracture mechanics. Steel specimens are subjected to various load (tension, three- and four-point bending, pure bending etc.). The calibration functions for short edge cracks are compared for various load and the discrepancies are discussed.

Fatigue crack initiation and growth in 316L steel in torsional cyclic loading
Karol, Michal; Chlupová, Alice; Mazánová, Veronika; Kruml, Tomáš
2017 - English
Fatigue crack initiation and growth study in 316L austenitic stainless steel was made in cyclic\ntorsion. The experiments on hollow cylindrical specimens were performed at room temperature using fully reversed shear strain controlled cycles. The specimens used were polished mechanically and electrolytically to enable surface damage and crack propagation observation using optical light microscope, SEM. It was found that high density of extrusions and intrusions are formed on the specimen surface due to cyclic loading. TEM observations revealed that dislocation arrangement in well-known ladder-like structure is responsible for the localization of cyclic plastic deformation and for the origin of surface roughness in which the fatigue crack nucleate. The path of fatigue cracks leading to failure was observed, too. The crack path\nwas found to be dependent upon the applied shear strain amplitude.
