Mechanism of fatigue crack initiation and propagation in the very high cycle fatigue regime of high-strength steels
TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanism for the formation of a fine granular area in high-strength steels generated by a very high number of cycles to failure is proposed, where the crack initiation and propagation mechanism is not fully understood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ti–Cu–Ni shape memory bulk metallic glass composites
Piter Gargarella,Simon Pauly,Kaikai Song,J. Hu,N.S. Barekar,M. Samadi Khoshkhoo,A. Teresiak,Horst Wendrock,Uta Kühn,Christoph Ruffing,Eberhard Kerscher,Jürgen Eckert +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a deformation mechanism is proposed with the help of experimental observations and finite-element simulation, which demonstrates that stress concentrations occur around the precipitates, which promotes a heterogeneous stress distribution and the formation of multiple shear bands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of different non-metallic inclusion types on the crack initiation in high-strength steels in the VHCF regime
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of different inclusion types on the crack initiation in the very high cycle fatigue regime was clarified, in which runout specimens were tested repeatedly with higher stress amplitudes until failure occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the role of microstructure in governing the fatigue behaviour of nanostructured bainitic steels
Rosalia Rementeria,Lucia Morales-Rivas,Matthias Kuntz,Carlos Garcia-Mateo,Eberhard Kerscher,Thomas Sourmail,Francisca García Caballero +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the microstructure during the fatigue crack propagation has been analyzed on the basis of the relationships between grain misorientations and grain boundaries by Electron Backscatter Diffraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving surface hardness of austenitic stainless steel using waterjet peening process
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of multiple jet passes and other parameters namely feedrate and pressure in waterjet peening of austenitic stainless steel 304 was analyzed and a reverse effect on the subsurface hardness was found for the feedrate.
